Birth Control after WLS
maramirez3614 replied to PuffyUnicorn's topic in Pregnancy with Weight Loss Surgery
My Dr told me either for both to take care of each other Bc fertility will be high and or one of us to take care of ourselves. Condoms are fine so don’t worry about it girl. -
I actually did it a month post op. My sex Life is better, I feel less tired and more confident and sexy, he compliments me all the time, Dr said I can have sex anytime as long as I don’t feel discomfort and to take care of myself to avoid pregnancy.

16 days out from vsg left shoulder pain
maramirez3614 replied to Chocolatay33's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I experienced the pain on my chest and not my shoulder, they did tell me it’s Bc of the Gas that was used for the surgery but the Gas went away little by little after drinking Gas X. That helped me out a lot! It took me about a week in a half to have the pain away. I had hard time farting it out but I would burp it out. Try Gas X. -
I agree, the pain on chest in between breasts was horrible, I still have trouble with eating Bc I tend to feel like I can take one bite and when I do I suffer Bc I’m over stuffed. I have to work on that.

Hello, first of all congratulations on your decision. I recently had my surgery Sept 15. It is a challenge but your body won’t let you eat as much, support is key, well at least for me, hang out with positive people, everything you eat after surgery will be a hit or miss, you will figure out what your body will tolerate. However remember that just Bc you tried something and it didn’t settle, it might be too soon so it’s ok to try it later on. Good luck [emoji4]
