Exercise after surgery?

[MutantAndProud]

I had my gallbladder out 6 days ago and it's been a wake up call. I need to look after myself better and to that end I want to increase my exercise and get healthy.

I want to join a gym at some point. Has anyone started exercising after surgery (it was laparoscopic) and how long did you leave between surgery and starting exercise?

Hi, I started exercising 10 weeks after my c section - I asked my GP when it would be ok to start and was told it was whenever I felt back to normal, so it will vary depending on how quickly you recover.
