*wnt2lose* 0 Posted August 24, 2008 I am down 6.5 this week. I was banded on Thursday the 21st. so, no walking yet for me. I hope to get out soon to get a little in. My doctor doesn't recommend exercise for 2 weeks. Did you guys just walking as soon as you felt good? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Roheryn 0 Posted August 25, 2008 Mine also said not to exercise for that long but said walking is a great way to get rid of the gas so walks are fine just don't overdo it! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Lanakila 1 Posted August 25, 2008 My doc said that walking is fine because it doesn't cause any serious strain on your core. If you were already a walker, I'd imagine it would be fine. My guy said that things like curves or other resistance exercises such as yoga are off limits for at least 6 weeks. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Azlife 0 Posted August 25, 2008 I started short walks by day3, like to the mailbox, then I increased to the corner and until I got to walking the full loop of my street through the greenbelt. I just started back at the gym and riding the bike yesterday and I am post two weeks. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
