Had a couple of serious ops- and they did hit me physically for quite a time. I was glad of the low gears that I rarely used to use before- so don't be worried that you may be wimping out on the hills by needing lower gears. It's easier to cycle slowly up a hill than push the bike.
And stay off the hamburgers- On this forum it's PIE. And muffins don't count.
