I was told to take It very easy until my 6 weeks were up and my stomach was healed. I was very careful not to do anything that cause leakage of the stomach. An amusement park might be a little too much too soon. I would check with my doctor's office.

It really depends on how you feel. If you are healing well, and have no incision pain, then go for it!

I think I would agree with TJMoot -- would be best to check with your surgeon's office-- some rides probably would be okay- but might want to stay clear of the really jerky rough ones.. just logically thinking-- but the choice is definately yours to make!

I'm trying to exercise daily. I was doing fairly well until I sprained my ankle 2 weeks ago but now I'm getting back on the horse. Today I walked over a mile with my arm weights that are about 22lbs total. I was out of shape and it was hard on my arms. I also did my 30 situps. I'm also going to drink a lot of water and try to eat healthy. I do tend to have a sweet tooth but I'm cutting...
