Hey everyone, I am a lurker sometimes poster in the DS forum and am five weeks out from surgery. I used to love to workout and do yoga. Can I start exercising now or should I wait a few more weeks? What do you suggest I start with and can I do yoga? Thanks for your advice! Amy

You can walk for sure. You should probably wait 6-8 weeks as a standard after stomach surgery to avoid a hernia or get clearance from your surgeon if that is an option. Then go for it!!

Thanks!  I will increase my walking.  I will wait a little longer and make sure to get clearance for other stuff!!
