I feel so tired to have sex



Recommended Posts

I am 10 weeks out in love with my husband. I do want t o be with him sexually but since surgery I feel sooooooo tired that is really hard for me to be in the mood. I am always busy with the house and my daughter but it was the same as before nuthing has change except the surgery. Is this tiredness ever going away? Next appointment will ask my surgeon. Is there any subjestions please

I was pooped for about four months. Hubby should pick up some of the stuff you normally do so you are less tired when its time to have fun.. My opinion: nothing looks sexier than a guy doing housework, shopping, and riding herd on the kiddos.

Even if he doesn't help, you should feel better soon.

Hi I too am exhausted alot but Im never to tired for that. Thank god. I m almost 6 weeks post op I think we need to find the right balance of food, and Vitamins . You know important stuff, so I dont know how long its going to take. My advice to you is put your daughter to bed, and you go take a power nap an hour usually does it for me, then go take a nice shower and get ready for your hubby. Just a suggeston I always nap before, I never did prior to my surgery. I hope it helps , good luck to you, go enjoy a nice night ,you deserve it.

It goes away or minimizes more. I went through this as well, and while thankfully I don't have children yet, it was still difficult for me to really get excited about anything. Not just sexually, but pretty much anything. Once you begin upping your exercise routine you will have more energy and you will be back to normal and then some. This will pass... No worries!

Best of luck with everything!

      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.
