When can you do things like jump and run after the sleeve?



Recommended Posts

I know they want you walking after surgery, but what about things like running or jumping? Like jumping jacks for instance, i feel like i would be too scared to do that stuff and jostle my pouch too much or something. When after surgery would it be fine to do these things?

You can't hurt your stomach by jostling it. You can, however, hurt your incisions by putting too much stress on them. You want to ask your surgeon for specific guidance on exercise.

Honestly, I can't remember how long it was before I was back to all activities but you'll definitely know when it's time. I remember one day just all Of a sudden feeling much more like myself. Just listen to your body! Prob somewhere around 4-6 weeks
