[FinerWoman 90]

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.

[FinerWoman 90]

Well thought tht I would fine out last night but I didn't ;-( lol

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!

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.

I had sex about two weeks out, it was a little painful...I am now almost five weeks out and have lost 66 lbs and sex is awesome, keeps getting better

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 know this is crazy but I am 5 days post op and did it last night it wasn't that painful but a little uncomfortable def save the tricks for Nextel couple of weeks

[mytime 21]

I waited til 4 weeks out....it was fine. No problems...

[babygirl901 173]

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.

[mytime 21]

My doctor told me to wait 4 weeks too....that is what I did.....good luck
