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.

      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.
