Chris39 2 Posted April 16, 2015 It's 2 weeks since I had the vertical sleeve. How long till I can hit the gym. Dr said to relax for close to a month but didn't really say much after that. Ideas???? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
BryBro63 410 Posted September 30, 2015 I was told to wait 4 - 6 weeks, and then start slow...I was so very anxious to get started, but glad I waited!! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
britknee 8 Posted August 17, 2016 I started 2 weeks post op. Just walking on the treadmill. I couldn't wait..it was maddening sitting at home doing absolutely nothing and not seeing my weight go down. Needless to say now that I'm active the scale is back moving.

judy vsg 126 Posted August 17, 2016 I began slowly at 2 weeks (treadmill, bike). At 4 weeks, i began my regular workout (including weight machines), but took it slow. I am now 5 1/2 weeks out and I love going to the gym! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
