Well I don't think MY sex drive has gone up personally, but my DH can not keep his hands off me! :) I would say his drive has increased 10 fold...lol...I can hardly keep up! What a great change!

POSTED 3 MINUTES AGO AND I'M NOT THE FIRST TO ANSWER?!?!?!?

My sex drive hasn't changed. I'm just as insatiable now as I was before surgery. But I'm able to do things (positions) that I haven't been able to do in a LONG time... since before I gained the weight. Positions my guy LOVES, and MISSED, and now wants to do -- guess he's trying to make up for lost time! And there are positions that are just downright more comfortable now. And I'm less self-conscious than I was before. I was never a "lights off" kind of person, but at the same time I KNEW that what my guy was looking at (whether he cared or not) wasn't attractive. And yeah, I STILL know that, but it's better. :)

Just realized I have typos in my poll heading (oops!)... Am I able to edit that, or can you only go back to edit a post?

Mario Andretti = Famous Race car driver (I don't watch racing, but I'm pretty sure that's who he is, but now you have me doubting myself - lol) Can anyone else confirm?

I'm not sure you can edit a poll once there are replies, or else you could switch your "yes" to a "no" and REALLY change what people had voted for. :) Not sure tho...

My sex drive has always been rather high, but the heavier I was the less I wanted to act on it. I used to look for excuses when hubby initiated and trying anything new to spice it up, was certainly out of the question. The quicker the better I used to think.

Now that I have been losing weight and truly feel like I am on the right road, my self confidence has increased ten fold. Now instead of thinking about sex all the time, I actually act on it!

Hubby loves the band!!! LOL

Who is Mario Andretti?? :cry :help:
He was a race car driver, now is retired from driving, but owns and supervises the family racing business. Two sons, grandson and nephew, have also been successful driving race cars, although son Jeff was forced out of the driving end by injury.

My sex drive is the same as it was.

Thanks TOM - I thought he was a race car driver, thanks for confirming it for me/us. Please go back and enter an official vote on the poll if you get the chance. Love to have your input count!

Mine is pretty much the same. Like someone else said, it is my DH that has had a major increase in his sex drive. He has always been "easily motivated" but now he is out of control, lol!

Done!

TOM

PS: Can anyone tell me why we have this minimum letter-count?

"Done" would have been a sufficient reply.

If the reason is to stop bumping, it does not work.

      Two months out from hiatal hernia repair.  Surgeon said to expect a lot more flatulence...something about the 'air' no longer being able to 'burp' out so comes out the other end.  That is my experience but have no understanding of why that swallowed air cannot be 'burped'. ???

        As I understand it since your stomach is smaller and not completely resting against your diaphragm anymore you no longer have the ability to "push" burps out as well. Plus, since its smaller and we don't digest slower the trapped air moves a lot quicker out of the stomach so its no longer available to burp out. Hence the other option for removal.

      Anyone had the TORe procedure? How did it go? How much weight did you loose?

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

        Your so close now! It's gonna be great :) Wishing you a speedy recovery and looking forward to seeing how it goes!

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!
