How soon can you go to gym after op?

Just wondered how long you need to leave it post op?

Glad you asked that hun, Ive asked soooo many that I dare’nt ask anymore but needed to know that too x

Hi, I asked the nurse and she said 6 weeks!

Its important that you follow this advice! Ill be fat by then! ;-(

Im 8 days post op and really feeling fed up and bloated, cant wait to go back to the gym. But im still struggling lifting things so i wouldnt have the strength for a good few weeks yet.

As i had unders and they have cut the chest muscle it will be even longer before i can do any toning exercises e.g. sit ups, push ups or anything with my arms/chest.

But i think i will have to start on the exercise bike and slowly build up from there. x

oh god 6 weeks that takes me so close to my trip to vegas damn!!

u can start doing light excerise once the nurse has given u the all clear at the 6 week check up x

I am thinking – maybe a tiiiny little trip in a couple of weeks,…on the slouchy sit down bikes, just to get a little movement,…but will see how I feel. Not doing any weights until the 6 weeks are up – not risking it, but will go nuts if I cant do any exercise at all. Will go walking on a daily basis, but not if its pouring with rain, then it’ll be a brisk walk on treadmill for me!!!
