Right girls, I need help!!! I’m sitting around eating far too much these days since giving up smoking 4 weeks pre Op …and have put on over a stone (which I needed to be fair) but need to tone up!!! what excercises can I get away with 13 days post op????? I’m all wibbley wobbley 🙁 haha xx
Cardio, Cardio, cardio! lol – At the minute brisk walking is all you can do as you don’t want to get your heart rate up to much as it can create clots xx
I put on about 9lb after my ba, and I didn’t need it haha. I started doing squats at 7 days, am almost back to normal weight now (6 weeks po) Also some gentle yoga may help x
well my heart rate is always up I suffer from panic attacks daily so i’m probably one big clot :/ how do you know if you have created them??
I havent walked anywhere since I was assaulted (think i’ve mentioned before) so round my living room or to my car is as far as that goes lol my partner does the insanity workout every evening bloody nut case but ive never been one for excersise as have never felt the need to but since stopping smoking I actually cant stop eating !!! so gaining fast lol …….mainly on my belly and love handles every where else is fine/barable…..how do I do it i’m new to all this fitness stuff !!! x
Oh Hun I’m sorry 🙁 I didn’t No that. Ok forget walking. I use a step machine which can burn a lot of fat. I’m new to ”ve only just startted doing exercise to try and rid of my love handles…. I think what Hx said would be good or even using a wii if you have one 🙂
OMG does he!! I’ve only recently read about that, yesterday as a matter of fact…God he must be dedicated!! I take my hat off to him lol xx
Sorry to hear that Sam 🙁 Defo agree with the wii (wii fit has various gentle workouts) you could also get training apps on your phone, or even videos from you tube to follow. Just keep it all lower body and don’t push yourself if you’re struggling. If you’ve not had to exercise much before you’ll probably find it will drop the weight off easily. BUT don’t forget it is natural to gain weight after surgery and also after quitting smoking, so don’t kick yourself for a few extra pounds x
Thanks girls I will have to try that I have wii sitting in a box that we never use any more as the boys changed their mind and wanted xbox!! so it might come in handy for me 🙂 need to get my self an excercise bike maybe, dont want to lose too much weight and cause rippling either though but a couple pounds wont hurt surely x
Have a look at this website Sam and see what you think, it has levels of difficulty warms ups, light exercise, full on work out, the lot 🙂 I forgot I’d got it in my favourites on laptop 🙂 xx http://www.fitnessblender.com/
