    Libido is out of control these days, it is actually taking effort to focus on other things!
    That's me my whole life! Haha

    Okay maybe this is normal then! Lol

    I hope so! I've always had an extremely high libido. Here's hoping it doesn't worsen as I continue to lose weight because it's distracting enough as it is. :#

    I posted before but i will again, Yes my sex drive has went up hugely. I feel more confident in my body and i crave to show it off and get a little dirty XD When i was overweight i didnt like myself so i wouldnt put myself in any situation that could lead to sex. Now i feel like i deserve it.

    It kinda went down a little. I lost a bit too much, had bones showing. I could feel all the ribs between my breasts and my hubby would play "xylophone" on my side ribs. Hubby would compare me to Gollum. Not sexy...
    Feel better now, having gained about 6-7lbs from my lowest weight.

    When I got really little and lean I actually lost my libido. Low fat intake, lower body fat %...nope. I'm obviously not little and lean anymore, so it's ok.

    This so much!! I was 18 and overexercising at the gym-low fat% plus depression and I felt positively arctic lol I quit gymming then my libido got back to it's natural overactive self :p

    Same experience.

    And just a comment: @bbell1985 - you are still 'little and lean'!

    My sex drive sky rocketed there for a little while.. I've lost 77lbs with 23 more to go. I was feeling really sexy at 1 point.. but the closer I get to my goal weight the more disgusted I am with how my body looks.. meaning... the loose skin on my belly. I still have quite a bit of weight on my belly to lose plus I have the loose skin.. not attractive :( it bothers me.. it doesn't bother my husband tho. But when things are getting heated in the bedroom I start thinking to myself "how can he stand to look @ me?" Ugh :(

    I have this. When i was thinner but still chubby i was filled out and nice and curve. Now when i lay i have a loose skin flap with a bit of fat still left in it that just sags down xD I can tuck it into my panties when their on but i definatly think about it in certain positions or whatever and it can kill the mood quickly XD Going to try losing the weight a bit more see if it improves or gets beter im hoping to god it improves XD Not the end of the world i suppose

    Edit: just noticed i lost 80 pounds now and have 10-15 to go so were similar stats :p Hope for the best for us both

    I'm with you! I'm only 4 11 and I went from 236 down to 172 so far. When I was bigger I did not want anything to do with sex. Actually causing problems in the marriage. Now, I can't stop wanting it all the time. I not only have a higher drive, the sex is over all more exciting than before.

    My sex drive is the same. Losing the weight makes it easier to get into position(s) and last longer. If only my husband felt the same way.

    I feel like I've always had a pretty high sex drive. But before it was like I wanted to have sex but was really embarrassed about how I looked which kind of made it not so enjoyable.
    I still have about 45 lbs that I want to lose but I honestly am coming to love the way my body looks and that's the ultimate goal for me. If I get to a point where I'm super happy with how I look and it's not that goal weight, I'll stop losing.
    So my desire/want for sex is probably about the same, but I feel much better about it and enjoy it so much more.

    It does take up a lot of brain space though if I'm being honest.

    I lost around 3 stone last year, my sex drive was soaring as I began to gain more confidence in my body - but, in my case the other half could not see past the rest of the fat still to lose. It's not always our fault......

    Mine has improved somewhat. I have noticed if I take a rest day and/or don't eat as healthy as I usually do, the sex drive immediately crashes.
