I am only a week out and my wife is pressuring me for it. I really do not have the desire or the energy right now. However, I know she needs the intimacy and closeness. I don't want to rupture my suture line and croak mid sex.

Time to get creative with intimacy , everyone heals at their own rate so do lots of romantic stuff with each other, and the time will fly and you will be fit in no time ;)

I don't want to think about sex right now. Maybe after 10 days or so. Getting in and out of bed is hard enough. Can't think of being intimate right now.

I waited a good 3 weeks post surgery. In addition to being so sore, I just didn't feel sexy with my lovely ketosis breath. I'll be 5 weeks out tomorrow and am now all good. Much happier husband!!!

I'm 3 weeks out and still pretty sore :unsure:

So, sex isn't even on my radar right now. My hubby is 16 years older than me so it hasn't been an issue yet.

*sigh* (I didn't think about me being in my sexual prime(30's for women) and him almost being 50 when we said "I do"......)

Ha ha ha.
Poor old dude.
I can relate, I used up all my sex drive in my early twenties.
I could perform at the drop of a hat.
Now I need a blue pill, sad times.

That could get better! Pre-op, with my diabetes not in check, I probably should have been using a pill. Now 90 lbs. later, happy to say everything is fully-functioning and in better shape than it's been in a long time!

Great name, BTW. :)

Glad to hear it.
I am hoping with weight loss I can stop using the blue pill.
Walter Sobchak is easily John Goodman's best role.

      Hi everyone! I’m brand new here. I just went through all my pre-op requirements per my insurance company and now everything has been submitted and I’m just waiting for final approval and my surgery date. I’ve been doing research, watching YouTube videos, TikTok’s, ect.. trying to prepare my mind and what to expect so I’ll be ready for the surgery. I was so sure and so set and so ready and excited. However, now that I’ve done everything & it’s almost here, I am sooooooo scared! I know why I want it bc I’ve tried everything and I just don’t feel like I can lose weight by myself. I’m tired of being overweight my entire life. I’m miserable, but I keep psyching myself out afraid of GERD bc I know how that can be and I don’t want to have to get a bypass after already gaining the courage to even get VSG. I’m scared of complications like I’mgoing to regret doing it and be depressed that I didn’t just be more disciplined and try again to lose the weight on my own even sitting here typing this knowing in my mind i just can’t and don’t possess the discipline. I’m also afraid I won’t be able to handle the restrictions of the sleeve. What do I eat? I don’t know how to eat healthy really and don’t enjoy healthy food. I don’t know how to do this! I feel so defeated!Someone tell me they felt anything similar to this or am I not ready? I thought I was. I am so tired of being sick and tired and so tired of myself and so tired of being stuck and stuck in this body and somebody different on the outside from what I feel inside. I just want to ball up and cry.

      Had a sleeve in 2017, lost over 100 pounds. Had a DS surgery this year (2025) for more sustainable weight loss. 🤞

      The 14th was my day. I am home and recovery is going pretty smooth. They even let me walk out of the hospital. Picture of me in recovery curtesy of my boyfriend lol.
