Ladies who have had a lap-excersise Q

When did you start activity again?

My lap was last Wed. so one week ago. I feel pretty good and while I am not planning on going to the gym again until next week, I feel like I could at least walk my dogs and maybe do my eliptical slowly? What did you do and when?

Thanks!

I went running 1 week after my lap and I felt totally fine.

I was only told no heavy lifting, everything else I could as I felt up to it.

I started walking and light exercise 3 days after..was back to heavy/vigorous after a week.  HTH and GL!

I was walking my dogs one week after. Didn't start heavily exercising until two weeks later but that was more about laziness than anything else. hee hee. If you feel up to it, go right ahead. Just no heavy lifting.

Definitely no heavy lifting, bending/stooping, pulling or stretching movements.  Obviously listen to your body, but I don't know that I'd even do the elliptical.  You're still healing.  I'd wait the full two weeks, but that's just me.
