bigcane318 0 Posted July 1, 2018 I am 1 month out. I am ready to start going to the gym. When did you guys start lifting light weights? Sent from my SM-G955U using BariatricPal mobile app Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
soph504 47 Posted July 1, 2018 My instructions are not to lift over 10lbs for first 6 weeks. After that, I guess just start low and see how you feel. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Lyngolean 81 Posted July 1, 2018 I was cleared for more than walking at one month, including strength training. I was told to expect to need Tylenol and an ice pack and eat a serving of Protein afterwards, I think I did need Tylenol the first time or two but was fine overall. Good luck! 1 bigcane318 reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
TakingABreak 2,733 Posted July 1, 2018 I didn’t start lifting right away but I needed to lose a bit before I could get real motivated with lifting. I was pretty big before and working out was a big chore. 1 bigcane318 reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
apositivelife4me 189 Posted July 2, 2018 My surgery was May 9. I started working out 1 week ago. It really helps me. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
