As I read from another poster, they like you to wait at least until you get home. :P

In all seriousnes, from what I have read, you can have sex when you feel up to.

Good Luck!

BonBon You just made me crack up!

My dr said as soon as I felt like it, I could!

Enjoy the journey with your spouse! My husband did not have the surgery but he did get on board and he has lost 60 pounds right along side me. It helps to have someone to do it with!

I think its so wonderful that you guys are getting sleeved together. You are so lucky to have someone right there by your side, who can understand and relate to everything your going through. Congrats to you both on your surgery date...you'll be in my prayers

My bf could eat deep fried folie gras dipped in mayonaise and not gain weight so just my surgery was the limiting factor. I was only able to make It 5 days but the Dr Told me I needed to wait ten. Oops.

all my stitches was kind of a position limiter but he was able to work around it heh. Doggie/spooning might be good for yall initially. Neither has to be on top using abs much. Use some pillows in a creative manner :)

      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.
