OK Ladies, Is anyone feeling like having sex, or have you had sex yet? Is it different? Do you feel sexy and up to it yet? I had WLS Oct. 15, 2012 and my scars are just about gone. So I think that I will be trying it very soon...

My surgery is Tuesday and I'm just preparing myself for no sex for a while. I'll have a Blake drain for 2weeks and a gtube for 4 weeks so I already know it is going to be out of the question. I probably won't feel like it and my husband will probably be to scared to touch me thinking he will hurt something.

I had surgery October 2, 2012 and have lost 36 lbs so far and I can already tell a difference! Sex is alot better! I think it is a combination of being able to move alot better and also confidence!

Is the g tube standard for your surgeon?

Yes it is, all has gastric bypass patient are required to have it for at least 4 weeks and he only removes it after you have proven you can get all your fluids and Protein in. I like that am going to have the security of it for the first month, so I dont have to worry about dehydration and not getting my Protein but it is going to be a very uncomfortable month.

Wish I would have had one! It would have made things a lot easier. I've just never heard of it being routine. Best of luck to you!!!

OK... To be quite honest, EVERYWHERE on me was chunky if you catch my drift...lol. I used to call it Garfield (get it, fat cat.) Anyway...it has lost weight along with the rest of me. I'm down almost 40 pounds and can tell a BIG difference in sex! I was probably three weeks out the first time after surgery.

I waited until four weeks after the surgery. Now that I am 4 months out.......it has been off the chain. My confidence was too high and I was flexible before the WLS. Now it's ridiculous. LOL.

      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!

    • buildabetteranna

      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!
