Ok i know this post is going to sound silly to some people. But its serious for me.

Sooo im 1 week post op and havent told my boyfriend (or anybody really) about my surgery besides my mom, dad, sister and manager. Ive been trting to avoid my boyfriend cuz i dont want him to ask for sex. Dr says 6 weeks ???? i havent even seen him in a week and hes starting to become suspicious. I lied and told him i came down with the stomach flu and have only been in the bed sick and throwing up. This week im going to tell him i have to go out of town for a week. The week after that im going to say i have my period. Im out of excuses after that. Lol. Anybody welcome to leave some suggestions/lies for me to tell him lol and telling him the truth about my surgery is NOT an option! Lol any help is greatly appreciated lol

hmmm. If telling him the truth is not an option, it doesn't sound like it's a very serious relationship.

Well you should be able to have sex before 6 weeks, but won't he notice the scars? What kind of relationship do you have if you can't tell him truth?

That's a tough situation that you can't trust him with the fact that you had major surgery and have decided to make some huge changes in your life.

You'd better come up with something crafty to explain the incredible shrinking new you.

The old "dog ate my homework" shenanigans will only last so long unless he's an idiot.

Did you have an open surgery? I can't imagine any reason why you would need to wait six weeks. a week and a half was good enough for me.

I echo what everyone else says about not telling him about the surgery...

Truth is the best option. Have you decide when you are going to tell him. Let's say a couple months from now. How will he feel when he learns the secret downstream and that you did not even trust him with it for so long.

Don't you think he will notice the six scars on your stomach?

Its not that i cant trust him. I just dont want anyone to know. And yes our relationship is fairly new. Weve only been together 4 months. Thanks everyone for your opinions though.

I did the opposite. I ONLY told my girlfriend and nobody else. Couldn't have sex for about 3 weeks (though if I were a woman it probably would have been sooner... "thrusting" sure as hell couldn't have happened at one and a half weeks due to my abdominal pain around my sutures... TMI).

I think before he notices the lack of sex he'll notice that you can't eat food. I suggest telling him you're on your period and opening up the blow job factory for two weeks. He won't mind.

Solid relationship are built upon honesty. Either he will support you or he won't. If he does, perhaps he is a keeper. If he doesn't, than you saved yourself future heartbreak.

      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? 🤷‍♀️

      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.
