Straws And The Like...



Recommended Posts

Ladies, I see that we have all discovered an extra perk to our weight loss when it comes to sex. I have a question though: how have you reacted to oral sex (giving)? If using a straw puts air into my stomach thus causing gas, won't oral sex do the same thing?

This would be a great question to be answered. I was thinking about the swallowing of fluids but thought it might be a little to forward to ask. So please excuse me if ur offended!

I have not had a problem with extra gas. Everything was normal for me. As far as fluids, that really isn't that much if you think about it.

And btw.. I never get too much air from using a straw. In fact, I asked my nutritionist what was the scientific basis for not using a straw..and she said there was no scientific evidence or studies done on the use of straws and having the sleeve done. It's just a suggestion. Some people gulp air with straws, some don't. I don't, so I use them.

Good point. I am sure it is not advisable early on. Not really a question I wanted to ask my doctor :ph34r:

Maybe I am doing it wrong but when I perform oral sex I am not sucking air out of there!

I am sure you will be absolutely fine.

I was more worried about the swallowning. My hubs has never complained about the seal not being tight ;-)

      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.

      Anyone had the TORe procedure? How did it go? How much weight did you loose?

        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!
