exercise bike question



Recommended Posts

ok so I'm trying to get my walking in but am DYING to ride my stationary bike. I saw my doctor for followup today and that was the one question I forgot to ask! What have your doctors said as far as exercise go? I know I'll end up calling my surgeon and asking, but thought I'd put the question out there...:thumbup:

Sorry this response is so late, but I just noticed the question. I was banded 2 weeks ago last Friday and started back on my exercise bike on Monday. It's fine with my doc. I feel much better being back to bike riding. GB

      Had a sleeve in 2017, lost over 100 pounds. Had a DS surgery this year (2025) for more sustainable weight loss. 🤞

      The 14th was my day. I am home and recovery is going pretty smooth. They even let me walk out of the hospital. Picture of me in recovery curtesy of my boyfriend lol.
