I thought I would be bold and just start my own thread to ask all the questions I have and to talk about my journey to skinny.:clap2:

I was l.ooking at the brochure the clinic sent me and it said I need Isopure or Isopro for the first week after surgery. Where do you buy that?

I read on Neenagh's thread that her doctor suggested waiting two week post suregery to have... sex

I didn't receive any info on that. Yoda , Woody you both had surgery at TLBC what do you guys know?

Thanks gals.

Yeah, I jokingly tried to have Kathy tell Mr Yoda that I couldn't have sex for six months!! It didn't work! LOL.

Real answer: anytime you want as long as you feel "up to it". In other words, the next day is okay if you want.

On that note...............I have noticed lately that I'm pretty flexible. I can't ever remember some of the positions I've been in lately....*clears throat* if ya know what I mean!!:biggrin1:

Mr. Cloe must be one happy man.

I wasn't told anything, it was about 4 days post-op for me.....both of us were being unnecessarily cautious though so it wasn't the best ever sex...LOL

Just about the only thing that I couldn't do for about 2 weeks was jump on the rebounder at my gym.

Carol

WHAT????? you mean there is more than one position Cloe?

Carol

Cloe you made me blush and laugh!!

And Carol too much information.:faint: but thanks!!!!

Lila.....I can see how it might be too much info....however, give an old girl a break.....at 55 I'm happy to still be getting it!

Carol

I am still hungry today =, but it is not as comsuming as it was yesterday. And last nite I had the worst gas. I wanted to sleep on my belly to help get it out. But it hurts still.

No telemarketers today. lucky them!!

Lila, can you kneel on your hands and knees, that might help with the gas.

And no, everyone, that is not one of the positions, well, I guess it is, but I could always do that one!!

Sorry, I don't mean to make anyone blush:biggrin1: .

Cloe oh my gosh I am busting a gut. That is too funny.

I could just picture my self on my hands and knees trying to pass gas and my husband would walk in and think... opportunity!! and then gas would pass.

Sorry iam not as funny as you but I aspire to be!!!

Hey, Heck Ya, You could kill 2 birds with one stone!!! The combination might work wonders. For the gas and the marriage!!

Lila....walking really helped me move the gas. I tried Gas X, etc....but none really helped. Walking hurts sometimes because of the cramps in the lower abdomen, but trust me....the movement really helps.

Hi Lila,

Laying on my stomach is still a fantasy for me, my husband has to help me turn to get on my side, thanks I'm sure to the hiatal hernia I had.

As for the gas, I learned in nursing school (I was a CNA a ways back...) to lay in the "Left Sim's position" to relieve gas. Lay on your left side and a lean forward, lift your right knee (should be on the bed not "up") like a loose right angle. (Not promising your hubby won't see this as another opportunity, mine sure would. He would tell me " honey, just stay there, you don't even need to be awake for this")

Sorry, I don't mean to make anyone blush:biggrin1: .

It would take a helluva lot more than that to make ME blush!!!
