I know this is personal and I dont mean to offend anyone, but after your banded does sex hurt? I mean, can you feel the lapband in you?

Can't feel the band at all. Sometimes you can feel my port, but I will make jokes with my husband, I say to him, "honey, do you want to touch my port?"

It's all good.

As I lose more weight, I can feel the port a bit during sex. Sometimes, it's uncomfortable...uh...pushing against it. But that just gives us an excuse to adjust positions.

Really, it's not a big deal at all.

One week postop it was a little painful around the port--it sounds like that won't be long-term according to these folks!

No, sex is better. :lol:

Not only are you more "mobile", there's less fat to get in the way and mentally you feel better.

You may get a twinge around port site once in a while, but you just shift a bit, as the previous poster stated.

      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.

        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!
