when did you exercise post op?

when did everyone walk run, cycle, cross trainer, etc after BA? I know i can’t train for 6 wks but when did u run after that? And can i go for a walk after a few days? Thnx x

I think the six week rule applies to running as well because it’s considered strenuous exercise. As for walking I was up and about the next day and got my nails done

Overs or unders? x

i starting back at gym 6 weeks prior to seeing my surgeon, walking is fine get plenty fresh air if you feel well enough, xx

I started back at gym at 5.5 weeks but only light exercise of Lower body. Now when I run on treadmill I wear 2 sports bras which I find more supportive as I don’t want them to bounce at all. I’m 9.5 weeks p.o now, can do as much as I did before op with no pain at all.

KMARIE DO YOU love running ? treadmill is great for losing weight x

Thanks all. I’ll stick to walking until May X

Iv been going for long walks, and having odd 5 mins on x trainer but not using me hands/arms.

I bought a cheap 1 off a facebook selling group till i can get back to gym im 2 weeks po xx

thanks mayflame. I was definitely hoping for long walks rather than to the local shop! My pc suggested maybe cycling after week 3. I’m worried about ending up with one wonky boob lol x

i found i couldnt do anything, even walking post op would tire me out so much, for two weeks, at four weeks i started doing just dance on the kinect (easy songs only) and wii fit, but i cant wait to start running again and the like, my gym phoned me up checking i hadnt died! i didnt tell anyone about my op before hand, and as it was so quick between the process, i was at the gym more then usual, then nothing xx

Joannabella have u thought what u are going to say when you go back to the gym ? I’ve been going most days for a year and I know I will be asked a few questions lol.

im planning on going in the smallest sports bra and top ever, and let them all know… theres a few good looking blokes there, and iv seen them eye me up before, i cant wait to see their faces (even though im very taken, a girl can window shop, as long as she doesnt get her purse out, as my nana would always say), i love the face i have boobs now, and if theres any nasty comments, i will always come back with ‘what dont you like about yourself? and why dont you get a set and change it then!’ xx

I’ve been going a few more times a week ready for post-op vegging. I’m not that confident though so i’ll be cringing when i go back and i’ve suddenly grown huge boobs. No-one knows at work either lol. Gona be some raised eyebrows x

haha joannabella, im planning on doing the same thing! lol xx

hahaha joannabella you go girl :-)bloody good on ya!!! made me laugh that xxxx

Reecara yeah running on treadmill’s good, I hadn’t done it too much since op cos I didn’t like the boobs moving, but the 2 bras does the trick so I’m back into it tho im not tryna lose weight, ppl already moan that I’m too slim but think they r just jelllll lol! I too wear lil tops at gym it’s fun watching all the heads turn lol!
