WHEN CAN I GET BACK IN THE GYM



Recommended Posts

Isn't that a question for your surgeon? Why would you let people on this site dictate when you can go back to the gym?

I had sleeve and hernia repair on a Wednesday and was allowed to go back to the gym Monday, I isn't a technical question, it's a question of what you can safely tolerate, I( so this doesn't come back to become a confrontation and I would like to answer your question) was told by my surgeon and the attending doctor the next morning "only cardio like treadmill or bicycle and very light circuit training" quit when you feel pain coming on, and don't go overboard until after first follow up

Of coarse I would ask my surgeon and would not do anything with out his advice but I don't see him till next week so I was looking for some hope for when other people started back to have something to look forward to Gheesh sorry.

      Just been waiting until time for my consult with my bariatric surgeon. It's scheduled for Jan 9th. Turns out I won't actually be seeing him. Apparently it'll be with his P.A.             Not sure what to expect. I thought this is where the surgeon would discuss the best surgery option for me. For years I had my heart set on the sleeve, but I've read so many people have issues with reflux - even if they've never had it before - that they've had to be revised to the bypass. I already deal with GERD & take 40 mg of Omeprazole daily, so I started studying about bypass and honestly, it seems like it might be the better choice for me. How can we discuss surgery options if the surgeon is not there?
      What happened at your first consult? Trying to get an idea of what to expect, or maybe I should say, what NOT to expect.

      I would like to know what questions you wish you had asked prior to your duodenal switch surgery?
