You can stand after a meal, usually half an hour is enough, which is very good for girls to lose weight. But no strenuous exercise.

After a meal, the parasympathetic nerves that control the stomach become excited, and most of the blood is concentrated in the stomach and liver. If you exercise right after a meal, firstly, the stomach that stores a lot of food will be jolted and will constantly pull the ligaments that fix the stomach. In the long run, this will cause the ligaments to loosen and lead to gastroptosis. Secondly, it will disperse the excitement points of blood and nerves, weaken gastric motility, and the food will enter the intestines without being fully ground, which is not conducive to further digestion and absorption.

Doing strenuous exercise immediately after a meal will inhibit the secretion of digestive juices and the peristalsis of the digestive tract. This is because during strenuous exercise, the blood flow to the muscles throughout the body increases, while the blood flow to the stomach and internal organs decreases relatively. These reasons can easily cause indigestion and malabsorption, affect metabolism, and even cause chronic stomach problems.

Running or exercising after a meal can sometimes cause abdominal pain, which may be caused by the following reasons:

1. After a meal, the stomach is full of food, and the gastrointestinal tract vibrates during exercise, causing the mesentery connecting the gastrointestinal tract to be stretched, causing abdominal pain. 2. During exercise, blood distribution shifts from the digestive tract to the skeletal muscles, causing ischemia in the digestive tract and leading to spasm of the gastrointestinal smooth muscles, thus causing abdominal pain.

3. During exercise, the body's oxygen demand increases. People who lack exercise usually have small lung capacity, so when they try to breathe hard, they are likely to have shallow and rapid breathing.
