    I am only a week out and my wife is pressuring me for it. I really do not have the desire or the energy right now. However, I know she needs the intimacy and closeness. I don't want to rupture my sutu

I don't want to think about sex right now. Maybe after 10 days or so. Getting in and out of bed is hard enough. Can't think of being intimate right now.

I waited a good 3 weeks post surgery. In addition to being so sore, I just didn't feel sexy with my lovely ketosis breath. I'll be 5 weeks out tomorrow and am now all good. Much happier husband!!!

@Walter.Sobchak LOL happy wife, happy life! Good to hear you didn't die! LOL JK

I'm 3 weeks out and still pretty sore :unsure:

So, sex isn't even on my radar right now. My hubby is 16 years older than me so it hasn't been an issue yet.

*sigh* (I didn't think about me being in my sexual prime(30's for women) and him almost being 50 when we said "I do"......)

Me too. It was actually no big deal, didn't really hurt my abs at all.

Ha ha ha.
Poor old dude.
I can relate, I used up all my sex drive in my early twenties.
I could perform at the drop of a hat.
Now I need a blue pill, sad times.

That could get better! Pre-op, with my diabetes not in check, I probably should have been using a pill. Now 90 lbs. later, happy to say everything is fully-functioning and in better shape than it's been in a long time!

Great name, BTW. :)

Glad to hear it.
I am hoping with weight loss I can stop using the blue pill.
Walter Sobchak is easily John Goodman's best role.
