I guess it all depends on how long it has been since your surgery. As with any surgery, you should consult your doc about exercise. Most surgeons want you to exercise by "breaking a sweat" 3-5 times per week. This can be done by walking, doing water aerobics, etc. Anything that may be considered "strenuous" may have to be avoided the first couple of months after surgery. As your journey progresses, you should be able to do more and more as the pounds come off. I hope this was helpful..You can also visit www.obesityhelp.com as there are several forums there to help answer questions like this.

Exercise is very important after lap band surgery. You will start off slowly with light exercise in the weeks following your surgery and gradually increase the intensity as your doctor recommends. Lap band surgery is not a way to lose wight without exercise.
