    My libido has always been high and still is. The only time that it wasn't, was when I hit my lowest weight. I had almost no desire for sex at all, and it kind of freaked me out because I was still somewhat in the top of a normal weight range, barely lower than I am now! I had low energy and zero sex drive so I upped my calories a bit, gained 7 lb, and felt normal again.

    That's how I decided where I wanted to maintain. Probably sounds like total "woo" to many, but whatever, I know the difference between wanting it and not being interested and it matters to me! :hushed:

    How old are you? Women's sex drives begin to peak around 33.


    tell my body that. Im going to be 44 and no peak yet.

    you could have a hormonal imbalance. or you could NOT be the average woman.

    nope all hormone levels are normal. and no Im not an average woman lol(have you been talking to my hubby? lol j/k)

    No but I also deal with depression so usually my libido is nowhere to be found.

    Depends. I've gotten so lean that I've lost my libido completely.

    My sex drive is the same now that I'm bigger as when I was "fat", but the sex it better because I'm comfortable and more confident.
