Exercising on Fill day?



Recommended Posts

This might be a silly question, but I keep reading that many people struggle with even just drinking waters their first days after their fills and I was wondering if its alright to work out the day you get your fill.

I have had no problems whatsoever with drinking (or eating for that part--I am in Bandster Hell right now!) so this worries me a little. I have made significant progress in my workouts and I dont want to lose anything that I have built up because I cant work out.

Please advise!

Nothing gets in the way of my runs.

I've also never been unable to drink as much Water as I need to. The only thing I notice is that I cant really gulp it, I need to take a sip (although a big one) let it go down and take another. So no downing half a litre in one go.

I probably get the most exercise when I get a fill, as I walk home from the hospital. Its about 1.5 miles. That may not sound like much, but it is for this couch potato.

      Just been waiting until time for my consult with my bariatric surgeon. It's scheduled for Jan 9th. Turns out I won't actually be seeing him. Apparently it'll be with his P.A.             Not sure what to expect. I thought this is where the surgeon would discuss the best surgery option for me. For years I had my heart set on the sleeve, but I've read so many people have issues with reflux - even if they've never had it before - that they've had to be revised to the bypass. I already deal with GERD & take 40 mg of Omeprazole daily, so I started studying about bypass and honestly, it seems like it might be the better choice for me. How can we discuss surgery options if the surgeon is not there?
      What happened at your first consult? Trying to get an idea of what to expect, or maybe I should say, what NOT to expect.

      I would like to know what questions you wish you had asked prior to your duodenal switch surgery?
