I know how you feel. An 18 feels unreal

Is anyone experiencing a decrease in sex drive? At first things were great, but now I just don't want to be bothered with it. Love my guy more than ever though. Just wondering if it is a hormone thing.

Thank you!

I'm down 80 pounds since August 30, 2013. Feeling much better since I started exercising. [ATTACH]39163[/ATTACH] [ATTACH]39164[/ATTACH] [ATTACH]39165[/ATTACH]

It's been so frustrating trying to reconnect. But...I'm down about 80 pounds. Working out really helped jump start things and get me over those initial stalls. Me checking into the hospital August 30,2013 and me December 26,2013 [ATTACH]39162[/ATTACH]

Definitely hit a stall. No loss in a week. Bummed.

I take bariatric fusion chewables.

Had my gtube out last Thursday. Doing pretty well although not feeling anywhere near 100%. Srill tired and very sore.

On a great note I'm down from 341 to 279

Ive been MIA for a while because I had a huge complication. On oct 3rd I went to the dr because I was still having trouble with getting water and food to stay down. They immediately did an xray with barium and saw problem. I had surgery the next day. They removed scar tissue the size of a fist that was hardened like a rock. It was totally strangling my intestines. My drs had not seen anything like it in 18 years of practice. They removed the scar tissue, rerouted my intestines and basically did the bypass again. Im doing much much better now at 3 weeks post op (2nd). Most if not all my prior issues are gone. Everything's fine except I have this stupid gtube in my belly. Just an extra tool to help me get more.water and protein in if I need it. I despise it and dont use it though. So that's my story. I'll keep you updated.

Thanks for sharing. I am super nervous about going back to work Friday but I have to. No one thinks I'm ready with all the frothing I do and neither do I. I still can't even stay up all day. Hopefully it will get better.
