I think I waited a week or two. I'm like Humming Bird. I know it was no longer than two weeks.

For me it was less than a week. But, I was also the chick that was pawing at my husband about 3 weeks after giving birth, so I don't know what that says about me. LOL!:thumbup:

To my surprise I have remained celibate since my surgery on Feb. 23rd!! My ex got lucky 3 days before my surgery and then he dumped me! He said that he didn't know where our relationship was going because I was having this surgery and that I wouldn't want him anymore when I lose all my weight!! So, my reply was oh you thought I only wanted you because I was fat and didn't think I could do better. With that it was dissolved! I am happy without him though! I have met someone new though.

I'm hoping you're all right about a week being long enough. Tomorrow is my 7th day post-op and my boyfriend is making sure I keep to my word and having sex after two weeks (it was my time of month the week prior to my surgery) since this it the longest we've gone without it in over a year, poor guy!

I think it was about a week, maybe 10 days. But there was plenty of 'extracurricular activities' prior to that.

There seems to be a lot of pressure for people to resume sex before they are comfortable with it because of the poor partner, the above being just one example.

If you are ready for sex 2 days after surgery great, if it takes you 2 months or longer that is also great. I believe that you should be making yourself a priority. Believe it or not no man ever died from a lack of sex and if he is "suffering" he can always go and visit Mrs Palmer and her 5 daughters.

have sex when you feel ready - not when you feel obliged to because your poor partner is suffering!

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.
