Sorry, typo. I do NOT want to bring this up with the nurse.

Check on your insurance. Some will pay for surgery if it is causing problems, such as chafing and it is hanging low enough.

I'd like to have your opinion. I am about 4.5 months out from surgery. I have loss 92 pounds, or 32% of my excess body weight. Gastric sleeve promotes losing 60%. I know I can improve with my water intake. I also know I can improve with some of my food choices. But, overall 4.5 months out is 32% in range? I am on target on my 6 mos. anniversary to be down another 27 pounds, or a total of 120 pounds, about 40% of my overall excess body weight. Things going well: More active; energy; confidence; clothes sizes are changing rapidly; generally feel great Could be better: water intake; consistency with vitamins; not making poor food choices on occasion. Thanks, I appreciate your input!

Greetings, I had the gastric sleeve on June 17th, and overall its going pretty well. I do have something that is becoming a bit of a problem. Since I can anonymity on here, I thought I'd ask. How is the sex drive guys? Mine is 1000 x increased. I begin every morning with some with my wife, I masturbate at least 2 x during the day, sometimes 3 (thank goodness I work from home), and at night we have sex. So on average that is 4x a day. Part of me is like this was better than when I was 16, 30 years ago. However, it is becoming a bit consuming. Anyone else have this issue? Is this normal? Does it last (I'm kind of hoping not to be honest)? Thanks. Sorry if it is TMI but it isn't something I really want to bring up with the nurse practitioner.
