Are you sure you need to be banded? If I could make any of those moves' date=' I'd leave the band alone ;)

In any event, it shouldn't affect your insides, and that's where the band is. The port is another story it's right below the skin surface, so just be careful when it comes to the location of where your port is and you should be fine.

Rock on girl![/quote']

Lmao...I'm sure. I'll definitely be careful. Thanks!

Sorry... I made my partner wait 3 weeks after surgery. By then' date=' we were both ready. I don't ever hang from the chandelier or anything like that but it was very active. No port pain to report!![/quote']

Lol....hang from chandelier....I know what you mean. No port pain works for me. I'll wait probably that long too, just to be safe.

And going into detail..I have done every move man made under the stars...port's still intact <WINK>

Your port is well sutured (unless your doc specified otherwise). So' date=' just like working out, sex and the fun positions it puts us in will not impact the port.

I have gotten pregnant on the band. Beware, it makes you fertile (but maybe it was position 2,345 that did it)

And girl, sex is the first forum post we all opened up..are you kidding me LMAO[/quote']

Ha ha ha ha ha....girl every move is up to my alley. Lol! My workouts will probably be the many positions I long for. I'm happy I've gotten everyone inputs. Thanks!!

If your definition of kinky sex is edge play there are some general ground rules for the band:

1. No impact play on the port area as it's tender and can get damaged/flipped

2. If bondage is involved stay away from the port area as well. Also- bondage after eating- watch with ropes on the band area.

3. Inversions -to each his own- but on a full stomach with a band- No

4. Needles- not near the port area.

5. It may help to circle your port area in marker both laying down and standing.

6. Tens- not in the area of the port or band

7. Cupping - again not in the port or band area

Fire is okay on the skin above the port as is wax and wand.

These are just a few dos and don'ts off the top of my head.

This post made me lol :) Not sure when you were banded but I would say go for it!! I have had no problems but maybe you should check with your surgeon? There is a whole thread for pregnant banders so yes you can still get pregnant with the lap band. it's a big reason some women chose this WLS vs other options because you can still have babies! :)

Lol...happy you were lol, because I was when I post the topic. Ok, I understand. I haven't been banded yet, not until Feb 2014, but I'm preparing myself for when I do. Thanks, for the info. :)

      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? 🤷‍♀️
