Low resting heart rate post WLS
Hey lauren. No, I feel fine when standing in a store or something. I hold around 50 - 55 bpm.
When I stop my cardio I watch my heart rate drop pretty fast. Drops maybe 2 beats per min (between 165+ to 135), per second till I get to a cooldown rate (120ish).
It's really only when fully rested I get to 40 - 42 bpm.

When I run, mine only gets up into the 60s. Resting its in the 40s. This scared me to death one day when I checked it at the gym. Prior to wls, my resting was over 100 and nearly 200 when I exercised. I asked my hubby who is a nurse and he said that people who exercise regularly have a low heart rate, which is good! If you are super concerned, I would check with your doctor.
Congrats on all your success! You look great!
