What exercises can I do in the meantime?



Recommended Posts

I'm 9 days post-op but I've already dropped 10 pounds and my body doesn't feel as firm as it used to (specifically my butt) today is my first post op doctor visit but in case in not cleared to exercise what mild routine would you suggest?

Walk. And for me as the weight melted away, it was my butt that went first but left saggy but flat.

I had mine yesterday..He said to walk, cycling is okay..no elliptical (not a fan of it anyway..lol) I have been research in some 3to 5 min butt exercises because my butt has always been nice ( can't twerk cus its mostly muscle ,hardly fat ????) and I don't wanna lose it..but after my month follow up he thinks I could get in the gym..so I am excited about that..cus I don't want theses arms to get flabby either..???? no core excerises for now for sure.

walk on an incline, that will help the tush.

I had a whole bunch done during the surgery and I can't resume real exercise till after 8 weeks.

You gals are lucky to firm up. At nearly 63yo, the sag and bat wings are there to stay. It doesn't really bother me but I'm still 30 lbs from goal. I walk a lot and bicycle.

Thank you. Yes my butt has always been firm and as vain as I may sound my figure was my first concern going into this. I want to keep my figure just smaller lol

..uh oh, I REALLY hope the butt doesn't go first....since I don't have much anything back there. My legs just stop and my back takes over from there. It's so sad.

Yeah it seems that's the first thing going for me. Hopefully the end result will be great

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.

      Hi, I’m new here. I’m currently on the liver shrinking diet. So far so good, but I have to say I haven’t found a protein shake I like. Anyone have any suggestions please? My surgery date is September 17th.

        Fairlife Core are by far the best. They taste just as they are - chocolate milk. You can either get the 26 grams or the 42 grams (harder to find and more expensive). For straight protein look at Bulksuppliments.com ..they have really good whey proteins and offer auto ship plus they test for purity. No taste or smell...

      2. BlondePatriotInCDA

        Fairlife has strawberry, vanilla and of course chocolate. No more calories than other protein drinks. Stay away from Premiere, they're dealing with lawsuits due to not being honest about protein content.
