sex drive after lap band?



Recommended Posts

OK so i'm not sure exactly how to put this but here goes.....has anyone's sex drive gone up in the few weeks after surgery? Mine seemed to skyrocket about a week after surgery, and still doesn't seem to be slowing down...Wow didn't think that was possible, as I already have a high sex drive blink.gif

You know I think when your sex drive takes a plunge when your not happy with your self and now that your banded your sub consciously happier then you realize and its affecting your sex drive. I know mine sky rocketed as well

I am so glad y'all have posted this. I am not banded yet, but have wondered this. (trying hard not to embarrass myself) One, my husband will "hate" to hear that several peoples sex drive have increased. ha ha he says I am gonna kill him now with my current drive (in a good way). :o Anyhow, I have wondered if different positions cause too much pressure on the port and if it can cause problems.

I know me for one could do about any position, as long as neither him nor I was laying on my port incision, as I am now 1 and a half month from being banded, I have no problems at all, its almost like I have no band at all blink.gif other than the fact I am down about 35 lbs and cannot eat very much at all

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.
      Just for fun last week, I ran two 5Ks in two days, something I would have never done in the past! Next goal is a 10K before the end of this month.

      Hi everyone, I wrote back in May about having no strength. I still get totally exhausted just walking from room to room, it’s so bad I’m using a walker with wheels of all things. I had the gastric sleeve Jan. 24th. I’m doing exactly what the programs says, except protein shakes. I have different meats and protein bars daily, including vitamins daily. I do drink my fluids as well.  I go in for IV hydration 4 days a week and feel ok just til evening.  So far as of Jan 1st I’ve dropped 76 lbs. I just want to enjoy the weight lose. Any suggestions or has anyone else gone thru this??  Doctor says just increase calorie intake, still the same.

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️
