Gym and exercise Started by: Corrin

I went back after 3 weeks x

I’m going to start back on Monday… Just the bike and leg work !
I’ll be 3 week post op on tues!! Felt quite down the last few days in terms of being really bloated in my tummy… Not getting any better, I have always drank between 1 and a half 2 litres every day religiously. I drink herbal tea Lemon and ginger etc, nothing is helping me.. I spoke to one of my clients today, who was a pharmasist and was told to take peppermint capsules as it’s really good, took sennacot for 7 days straight after surgery and that didn’t ease that side of things… So still bunged up that way too !! But on the plus side I really can’t thank Mr Traynor enough for his work… He has made me feel so much better about myself

I’m the same, but mine is horse riding! Got my surgeon consultation on Monday so I will be speaking to him about this. im lucky my horse isn’t fizzy so I know I can trust her but it is still bouncing up and down!! Glad your recovering well hun xx

Not being able to exercise is driving me crazy too! I used to do cycling at gym quite regularly and I’m almost 2 weeks po now, really hope I could go back 3 weeks po. Feeling so bloated and miss the feeling after a good exercise session.

Glad I have just read this one. I am 3 weeks post op and planning on going to the gym tonight. Going to start off with walking on the treadmill and hopefully back to my usual next week. Going to do leg weights too. Then start my normal Pilates butt and leg work tomorrow, but do the routines lying down so not putting pressure on the wrong areas. Its my arms that are getting flabby though 🙁 grrr!! It is difficult not to work out though when we are feeling back to normal. xx
