The band has totally set my sex drive on fire... it was hot already, but man, feeling better about myself has done wonders! That said, I had a 2 week period after banding I wasn't to have sex (i waited one week)>

My surgeon only asked that we wait to get out of the hospital room before getting busy. I had no pain or discomfort at all! I guess the only thing different is that my husband had a great view of my steristrips. On a side note, losing weight and exercising does WONDERS for flexibility :biggrin:)

Gosh, I think we waited a day or two :smile:) We're in our 20s afterall :() Then again, I never felt pain or discomfort after surgery, just a new pressure when I coughed, but that went away quickly.

Hey Brad~I used to live in Bronson! Went to high school there!!!

Not banded yet, so can't speak to the topic!:smile:

Hi Shelby - small world eh? I was going to say that I hope you're someplace warmer now... then I looked as saw you're still in MI so you're suffering with the rest of us... :(

My doctor only said wait until you feel up to it, just be gentle. I think we waited about a week or so.

Gentle? Not a chance..... :wink:

WE waited a week. I've been telling him 6 weeks and he was kind of okay with that and said he'd torture me until our cruise in March. I didn't think I could handle that and apparently, I can't even handle a week! Haha

We were gentle. He's freaked out about hurting me!

oh it's been great lol. since the weight loss, i've been in some of the craziest positions and kama sutra, and even switched positions with him still inside of me, that was crazy. i was like.. WHOA, where you taking that leg, sir? lol. things get a lot easier and you're even able to move your arms/hands/fingers into places you wouldn't have been able to before, during these times. :thumbup:

      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.
