There's a lot less padding down there now, meaning that he is able to go deeper. He's probably hitting your cervix, which can be quite uncomfortable! I've had this experience and it can hurt!

I've noticed it as well. I'm almost 3 months out an I keep joking with my fiancé that he just keeps growing :). I'm not complaining- but I have noticed some positions are slightly more uncomfortable than they were pre-surgery

So you KNOW the guys are reading and just not commenting! lol. I would say

"Less cushion for the pushin' " I don't think you have a medical issue.

It is a change in how deep he can go now. Certain positions can get a little uncomfortable for me now. I have found a vibrator on my clit (can i SAY that??) will distract me from the discomfort & increase my pleasure. I know.....TMI! ????

I told a guy I was mad at him for "punching my cervix!" LOL That was when I was down about 90. Now that I'm down 150 I can't imagine what it would be like to be with him again. But, yes, it's just an issue of going too deep. He might have to be a little slower and gentler now. Work with it and see what positions feel best... probably one where you can have more control.

I would say try taking it really slow with your man. Pretend like your dating again. I'm sure you'll learn how to "receive" him again once you adjust to your new sexy body :) good luck, have fun and enjoy ;)

For me, I have noticed that my sex drive has dropped to zilch. As my weight decreases, my husband wants to intimate more and more-and I don't. He is frustrated and I don't know what to say.

I am the same way! Before surgery I was always ready to go but now I don't have much drive. I haven't said anything just let him but I wish I wanted it more because its not my boyfriend's fault. What is this?!! It sucks.

Fat stores estrogen and as you lose fat you get a big influx of estrogen in your system. Having too much estrogen is a big cause of low libido- but so is having too little estrogen!

With "LADIES ONLY" in the title, you are correct. This is the first thread we all looked at.

      Hi everyone! I’m brand new here. I just went through all my pre-op requirements per my insurance company and now everything has been submitted and I’m just waiting for final approval and my surgery date. I’ve been doing research, watching YouTube videos, TikTok’s, ect.. trying to prepare my mind and what to expect so I’ll be ready for the surgery. I was so sure and so set and so ready and excited. However, now that I’ve done everything & it’s almost here, I am sooooooo scared! I know why I want it bc I’ve tried everything and I just don’t feel like I can lose weight by myself. I’m tired of being overweight my entire life. I’m miserable, but I keep psyching myself out afraid of GERD bc I know how that can be and I don’t want to have to get a bypass after already gaining the courage to even get VSG. I’m scared of complications like I’mgoing to regret doing it and be depressed that I didn’t just be more disciplined and try again to lose the weight on my own even sitting here typing this knowing in my mind i just can’t and don’t possess the discipline. I’m also afraid I won’t be able to handle the restrictions of the sleeve. What do I eat? I don’t know how to eat healthy really and don’t enjoy healthy food. I don’t know how to do this! I feel so defeated!Someone tell me they felt anything similar to this or am I not ready? I thought I was. I am so tired of being sick and tired and so tired of myself and so tired of being stuck and stuck in this body and somebody different on the outside from what I feel inside. I just want to ball up and cry.

      The 14th was my day. I am home and recovery is going pretty smooth. They even let me walk out of the hospital. Picture of me in recovery curtesy of my boyfriend lol.
