Hi Everyone,

Can band slippage occur from sex? Also, how soon after being banded can you have sex! (seems like the motion in that area would cause problems)

OK...Im ready for these responses!!!! (and yes I have, but very carefully)

"Well behaved women rarley make history"

"I havent had sex in so long, I forget who wears the bowling shoes and who gets tied up."

Anyone else still tossing this one around in the ol' coconut?

An observation, a horizontal position too soon after eating is not a good thing.

toooo funny Delarla

I asked the doctor "the question" Straight out. "Hey Doctor H. what about Vigorous Sex?" He just smiled and said "No problem." I mean come on...... sometimes thats the only exercise I used to get. I say used to get because I've been divorced for awhile now. But when I'm a lean mean machine again, I plan "exercising" really soon with someone special.

My hubby would say..... You dont need a treadmill, you dont need a bike, you dont need weights, you have me..... LOL if he could last as long a a treadmill it might be worth it huh LMAO just kidding... Im the one not wanting sex... being so big i cant move, my back hurts i want to cry, and its hard to breathe... my poor baby he cant wait until i lose weight

Reach for your mate instead of a plate.

Its says you had your port removed?? Did I read correctly? what was the problem & was it resolved?

I am getting banded in 3 days and I didn't think it would be possible for awhile at least 3 weeks. With that said, I've been trying to condense three weeks worth into 2 days cuz the 3rd day is surgery day

I bet your hubby is walking around with a smile lol

The lap band is a very positive experience for him. He's probably wondering if I can be banded a couple times a year;)

When my port incision became infected after my surgery, I consulted with 4 different band surgeons because I wanted to make sure I was getting the proper treatment. All four surgeons agreed that an infected port must be removed. Then you wait till the area is healed, and they do another surgery to replace a new port. Port removals and new ports are not covered in the original surgery. Be nice to your ports!

Delara,

Bowling shoes LOL better then golf shoes with those SPIKES> OUCH!

I was just trying to be funny, but apparently I dont have as much of a sense of humor as I thought.

Just having a REALLY REALLY bad day today.................................................

Musicman, you have a great sense of humor! I'm sorry you're having a bad day. Hope things get better for you!! Here's a (((hug)) to help you feel better.

Musicman, the "bowling shoes" comment was classic! That's the sort of twisted stuff that keeps this board alive. Keep 'em coming!

lol, well i must say you all made me smile when i read your replies, but i wanted to add that my doctor told me i should wait one week before i have sex, just to give my body a rest, then he said he does not mind what i do, so who knows if i can wait that long or not, but i will try, its kind of hard when you want something, and its right there infront of you, and you can not have it, i think that is why i am here right because food was always in my way so i ate it because it was there and good, so if i had lap band to stop that, it was not done to stop sex, so i am in trouble lol.
