exercise and/or sex post TT & Lipo
Not running a marathon - but basic walking on a treadmill.
with my 2 c-sections I was OK with walking after 2 days -- can I expect 2 weeks?
as sex -- I would expect more like 6 weeks - any benchmarks?
July 2007 = lap band ...Sept 2010: lap band removed....Dec 2010 VSG
HW: 283... VSG SW: 244 .. got down to 170 -- now at 193 and "back on track" ....GW: 155

LOL...I guess everyone has there threshold....I had an LBL and BL and had sex right abour 6 weeks....didn't golf until 8-9 weeks out....can do just about anything now at 4 months.....I think 2 weeks is reasonable to be walking, though probably much slower than prior to TT and Lipo...Keep us posted on how quickly you are able to do these things!!! Good luck

After my LBL & Brachio I was up and walking around the neighborhood in the first week. I got back to the gym and treadmill around 3 weeks once one of the thigh drains was removed. Then once I went back to work it wore me out and the final drain was killing me so took off from week 4 to 7 before getting back to the gym full-time using weights & working out w/ the trainer. As for sex - didn't have anyone at the time but after my MTL & BA/BL it was only 3 weeks.

I went and worked out on a treadmill 3 weeks after my TT... I did swell up after that, but it felt good to move. I guess it's a trade-off. You may want to plan it for evening when you are just going home. I was out of the house and did a few things like shopping about 5 days after my TT. The first 2 days were hard, but by day 3 I was doing much better!
