Sex after sleeve (tmi had to get it out) ????



Recommended Posts

I can't wait to see how different sex after losing weight is .. I'm not trying to rush it I'm just anxious . It felt nearly impossible for me on top and now I'm excited to see the changes .

It is exciting. I've lost 75 pounds so far and have to say the sex is amazing. My fiancé is very pleased lol. You should be excited. Also I feel more confident about myself during sex. How far out are you?

Awe yay good for you ! And congrats on losing that much . I'm not far out enough to have sex .. 3 days post op . I do believe I feel great for only 3 days out . Can't wait for the discomfort to go away and see some changes :)

Definitely not TMI. We're all adults here.....well for the most part ;) and sex is a valid topic. Check out the powder Room Forum (Ladies) and The Man Room (Mens) for some other times this topic has come up. I personally am a big fan seeing it addressed here as well.

There are changes that do take place after WLS that do affect ones sex life. Some of the obvious changes are the physical differences but there are also emotional and psychological changes that take place too. Can't wait to see the response. My post WLS experience with this topic is that it has been a great time! Getting used to the "new equipment" (my wife's term) has been a welcome bye product of the process.

Oh and the other sex question that comes up is how long after do you have to wait? Me, I made sure that I was out of the recovery room first. ;)

Oh it will fly by. I'm 3 and a half months out. And lucky you! I was stuck on my couch for a week. My fiancé had to literally lift me up lol. But I was back to work three weeks later. Awesome on that and good luck to you (:

      Thank you everyone for your well wishes! I totally forgot I wrote an update here... I'm one week post op today. I gained 15 lbs in water weight overnight because they had to give me tons of fluids to bring my BP up after surgery! I stayed one night in the hospital. Everything has been fine except I seem to have picked up a bug while I was there and I've been running a low grade fever, coughing, and a sore throat. So I've been hydrating well and sleeping a ton. So far the Covid tests are negative.
      I haven't been able to advance my diet past purees. Everything I eat other than tofu makes me choke and feels like trying to swallow rocks. They warned me it would get worse before it gets better, so lets hope this is all normal. I have my follow up on Monday so we'll see. Living on shakes and soup again is not fun. I had enough of them the first time!! LOL

      Still purging all of the larger clothing. This morning, a shirt that I ADORED wearing ended up on top. Hard to let it go, but it was also hard to let go of those habits that also no longer serve my highest good. Onward and upward!

      It's been a bit of a struggle this last week...I'm hungry ALL the time.

        Have a great Wednesday too! Sorry you're hungry all the time, I'm pretty much the same..and I'm sick of eating the same food all the time.

      Well, tomorrow I go in for an impromptu hiatal hernia repair after ending up in the ER over the weekend because I couldn't get food down and water was moving at a trickle... I've been having these symptoms on and off for a few weeks but Sunday was the worst by far and came with chest pain and trouble breathing. The ER PA thinks it is just esophagitis and that the surgeon and radiologist are wrong. But the bariatric surgeon swears it is a hernia, possibly a sliding one based on my symptoms. So he fit me into his schedule this week to repair it! I hope he's right and this sorts it out. He's going to do a scope afterwards to be sure there is nothing wrong with the esophagus. Here's hoping it all goes well!!
