If you push and pull 85-125 lb pkgs post open RNY, will this cause

you to get a hernia easier. I work for UPS and we routinely push and pull on very heavy boxes from one roller belt to another. We also have to lift pkgs sometimes. I looked in the library but didn't see anything like this question posted. I am wondering if I should possibly try to transfer to another area if this could cause problems. I am pre-op and my WLS Dr said there would be NO restrictions post surgery, but I really trust your all's opinion more than his regarding this. Thanks in advance for all of your help!!
