I am getting sleeved on Tuesday! I have wondered how is the sex life post op. Energy? Extra skin? Etc? I am married to a loving husband who supports me and I just wonder how my sex life May or may not change. Please keep it real!

My experience with yo yo dieting in past years is that when I am not fat........my man is very happy with the libido!!

Be prepared to spend most of the moments, until you get used to it saying in your head and out loud...

"Oooh, look at my hip bones sticking out'.

'Oooh! Look how bendy I am now!'

'Hmm...Do you think that chandelier will support my weight now? I think I'm going to swing off of it'. :D

Personally, I'm embarrassed of my boobs. My belly doesn't have that much extra skin. I'm also embarrassed of my thighs. My sex drive has never been that great to begin with and the surgery hasn't really changed that for me (poor hubby, lol!). Good luck!

I think the fact that you have a very supportive husband that already loves you for you is a major plus! You will definitely have more energy. I've lost 90lbs and have some rather unattractive wrinkly skin on my tummy and thighs. I recently started dating someone about 2 months ago and he constantly tells me that I look great to him. That's all that matters!

I'm surprised weight loss hasn't increased my sex drive more. I have had a libido lack since I started Zoloft. Hoping weight loss will eventually lead to a reduction of the Zoloft and subsequently an increase in mojo. The good news is that its no longer a hardship.

      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!
