4 1/2 Weeks post op. Workout suggestions??

[Brittanae 18]

Surgery date was May 3rd 2017

Highest weight 249

Day I went home from surgery I weighed 230

Today I weight 212

First picture was before surgery in April. 2nd picture was from 2 days ago.

I can see progress and clothes are getting too big but I don't feel like the weight it coming off as quick as it is for others?

I walk everyday but I'm starting to go to the gym tomorrow. Any workout suggestions??

If you don't lift, do light weights or body weights. Find a trainer, if needed, that will cater to you starting out. Weights will obviously put some muscle on and it will also change your physique too, in a great way. I'm starting my 4th week post op (surgery 5/15) and was cleared for body and light weights. Are you cleared for such?

Also, this is your journey, try not compare yourself to anyone else's. We're all at different builds, heights, lifestyles, etc. with that said, you look awesome! Good job for your loss. Keep it up!

You look amazing. I just had surgery on Wed but they didn't weigh me in the hospital. I'm still trying to get my fluids in. Still having alot of pain and gas. I was thinking that once I'm feeling better and cleared for increased activity I would join a gym and use some targeted why machines to tighten certain areas asI lose weight such as abd and thighs.

Thank you guys!!

So happy for all of us!
Those gas pains are no joke! Mine lasted for about 2 1/2 weeks after surgery and it was unbearable!
Good thing is that they eventually go away. Lol

Just spoke to my surgeon and was cleared to do anything I would like to do. [emoji33] So exciting. Not sure where to start.
But I did join a gym and I plan to be there at least 5 days a week.
