sexually its night and day, had a great sex life before, but its like putting a twin turbo on your fun bits afterward. not only did i go from 5 inches to a nice 8.5 after, you can now , do more with what you have as well. Now sure there are skin issues for not looking so great in the nude, but i was prepared for that. and yes the stamina etc is so much better now. i keep my wife worn out thanks to the uptick in sexual appetite.

And i do echo the others sentiments on how people treat you. its also night and day, i always had great friends to help me and etc but everyone will treat you different, most of it is completely subconsciously, but it is a big difference. had my surgery hit my goal weight a year later and int he months that followed, I received 3 promotions 2 bonuses and now i lead my team of people and I am the " go to guy" people see you as now being responsible and capable when you lose, but the fat guy, not so much. kind of sucks but it is true.

I totally agree. I had roux en y in May. I have lost 55 lbs so far and my wife and I have noticed a big difference in size and erection hardness. It also seems like I can feel so much more than before. Def looking forward to the next 50. :)

      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.
