    This could be more interesting than sexual preference after stopping birth control. But not by much. Because that ****...that ****'s real.

    But anyway--I don't think it changed at all from weight loss. I still like who I like.

    You know, this brings up a good point. Wasn't there a recent study saying birth control messes up natual attraction somehow? I forget, but the point is, there is a lot of subconscious stuff we're attracted to without ever realizing it.

    Yes. I am living proof that it is real. Ask my husband...haha. Sigh.

    Oh no! I'm so sorry and I hope you find a solution that works for you! I know how frustrating it is to have hormonal changes that just kill all attraction. Poor guy...excuse me while I go feel guilty now.

    I still find my husband incredibly attractive after losing weight, but I just like to do it more because I feel more confident and sexy now :love:

    I AM ACTUALLY GOING TO POST A TOPIC BECAUSE I HAVEN'T SEEN IT YET. (AND YES, I KNOW MY POST IS IN CAPS)

    SINCE LOSING WEIGHT HAVE YOU NOTICED A CHANGE IN YOUR PREFERENCE FOR MATES?

    WHEN I WAS 400+ I LIKED MY BOYS TALL AND SKINNY.
    NOW AT MY CURRENT WEIGHT I LIKE THEM IN LOTS OF SHAPES AND SIZES :)
    A LITTLE TUMMY IS CUTE, LOVE A BOY WHO IS BULKING, AND WHO DOESN'T APPRECIATE A RUNNERS BODY?
    IT'S ALSO WEIRD TO BE SMALLER THAN A GUY BUT I REALLY LOVE IT NOW.

    ANYONE ELSE NOTICE THIS?

    LETS KEEP THIS THREAD NICE :)

    It could be becuase when you were overweight all you could think about was the fact that you wanted to be skinny and had a bad self image, so you thought that only people who were skinny are worthy of love. But now that you are fit and healthy you can appreciate the beauty in anyone. You mental image has changed. Which is a good thing

    with the lights on...:blushing: . oh wait.

    I used to like skinny guys that were either the same size or smaller then me, but since I a) gained weight, b) grew up, as long as they are somewhat fit and care about themselves I have found that I am attracted to bigger & bulkier guys.

    Haha, it's not that bad. But yes, your hormones do incredible things to you. So, hormone changes from weight loss could certainly change attraction. I'm still attracted to my husband, but stopping birth control did change me (mostly because I haven't known myself off of it since I was 16). So, it's not exactly on topic, but: if you're a female on hormonal birth control and you're about to get married, stop taking it for a few months before you actually do. Haha. That's my non-medical anthropology-trained advice.

    Oh my goodness yes, I just got off of birth control and my whole world has changed.

    Don't forget to not get pregnant while you're stopping that BC though, just in case he isn't the one for you!

    I don't know, as I get older, more experienced, having had a wider range of partners and having been, in some ways, a wider range of person, I'm a lot mellower about things like pnysique, but one thing hasn't changed. I don't like timorous men of any weight. Don't lack self confidence, or you'll increase my lack of self confidence!

    Edit- oh, and I had my tubes tied. One of the best decisions I ever made, but obviously not an option for those who might want (more) kids someday!

    Let's just say that my sexual appetite has been going crazy. The more I seem to lose, the more I crave sex. Anytime. Anywhere. :) My favorite position is the prison guard!

    LIGHTS ON, too ;)

    I'm down almost 40lbs now and I don't think my preferences have changed any. I am a bit hornier these days with all this extra energy and greater flexibility so I gotta keep that in check

    Nope,i haven't really noticed a change...my BF is tall 6'2.5" and 190lbs and he has a lil belly, like he doesnt have abs,but i LOVE his lil gut,hehe..recently hes lost 10lbs and has been running & swimming (i like to think i encouraged him,hehe) and im kinda sad to see that his "lil gut" is slowly disappearing :*( i want it to stay,lol :*}

    But i guess,i like all kinds of guys,just not overweight men...:)

    It hasn't changed yet, I still prefer the mountain men type :bigsmile: Or if they look like Thor :wink:

    Yes please, I'll take Thor, too.

    I haven't lost much yet, having just started trying, but I doubt my type is going to change. I definitely go for the gawky/gangly, tall and dark type. Glasses and a brain are a plus. Luckily, my husband fits all of those categories.

    I think my first ever celebrity crush was Jeff Goldblum. These days, Zach Braff. I also have a weird thing for Alton Brown. Before he got all skinny though. It's all about the brains there!

    I have never been the type to swoon over the Fabio type - big muscles and shiny hairless chests do nothing for me. Except if they're on Chris Hemsworth. He's the only exception to my geek-boy rule.
