How do I say this ... my sex drive is uh, in high gear, since the surgery. Did this happen to anyone else? The only word for it is ... horny, or randy, or whatever slang you can come up with to indicate the desire to get some RIGHT NOW!! My environment doesn't lend itself toward fixing this er, problem. I work with soldiers and they are rather single minded and NOT in the way that helps me, lol! I have several months before I can be back in the States and this could get tense!!:001_tongue:

HI, and welcome to estrogen overload. Our fat cells store estrogen, when we lose fat so fast, it all releases into our system. YAY for sex drive, BOO for location and situational constraints on getting it on! ! !

It doesn't let up for several months. When John came home from Afghanistan (you know that lovely transitional stage due to time zone changes, work hours, etc etc), he told me "this is more exhausting than being in the desert". Grant it, I went 6 months with NO humping. I was making up for lost time, and the surge in sex drive was a lethal combo for my poor husband ha ha ha.

LOL, whatever is causing it, try and enjoy it, even in your situation. I know mine had been lost for years. So glad I found it again!

Get a massaging showerhead ! ! ! I told everyone that I had a better relationship with my showerhead than I did with my husband during his deployment. :wink1:

Sadly, the army showerheads here are standard showerheads ... toys are an option, but there aren't good options for keeping them properly cleaned. Soldiers can get in huge trouble if caught gettin' down, so it looks like I will be watching a lot of Russell Crowe movies, sucking on sugar free lollipops, and visiting the shooting range.:)

Russell Crowe???? Surely not? Now that lovely Daniel Wroughton Craig would be a different kettle of fish, I took a fancy to him when I saw Layer Cake, do try and see it if you can.

You won't get in trouble. I think thats just something they tell you. My husband and all the rest of the guys he knew had a stack of porn in Iraq they shared. He was there for 18mo. so he had to do something!! They buy them boot leg. But good luck with that...lol:tongue_smilie:

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞
