Guest guest Posted September 19, 2002 Report Share Posted September 19, 2002 huh?Boy talk about open mouth and insert foot... I stand corrected!!! Sometimes I get so frustrated trying to convey a thought, that I stray from the thought and lose sight of it altogether. I have been an avid user of the gym, weight lifting, swimming, racquet ball, etc. What I really wanted to state was that the general population of RNY patients will try to get into weight lifting and other strenious exercise and develope significant health problems. Mainly because of not doing follow up visits with their doctor, regular lab work, not taking the needed supplements that are needed to maintain their health. With all the above basis covered, RNY patients can live as active a life as anyone, and in fact, each one should strive to make this a lifetime regimine.

I have never ever heard that weight lifting has an adverse affect on WLS patients. Please elaborate with some references. I'm desperately trying to rebuild some muscle. While I was down with ulcer and related fatigue, I lost way too much. I may never make it below 27% fat because my lean muscle mass is only 105 pounds now. Every time I have it measured, it is lower even if I've gained. Dea Ann Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted September 20, 2002 Report Share Posted September 20, 2002 Actually, if the RNY patient is on an adequate calcium supplement regimen, weight lifting is beneficial. Weight lifting helps increase bone density. It you are taking your calcium, weight lifting will help increase or at least maintain your bone density.

Guest guest Posted January 24, 2006 Report Share Posted January 24, 2006 I don't have a clue as to why that message to Willie about SRD steps came thru three times. Is Yahoo messing with my mind again? Sorry about that folks. Lord knows we have enough email to go thru without repeats.
