    Huh... never thought of that correlation. I know the more I work out the less of an appetite that I have.

    yea i noticed that about myself too

    :blushing: MY libido, HIS libido....sheesh and what is it about when OTHER men start flirting with me, that gets mine going? Back when we were teens, he'd have knocked a guy's block off if he flirted with me, and now, he just has this big ol' grin on, watching me being all awkward and uncomfortable....cuz I am SO not used to EVER being flirted with by anyone but him.

    I've always had a great libido. But the working out and losing weight things leaves me insatiable most days.

    Weight lifting, if you're doing it properly, is SO taxing on your nervous system and energy, that your desire for sex should actually decrease. You instead get that zen peaceful feeling post workout, which I look at as a higher form of sex. You literally feel high. It's pure ecstasy.

    You're doing "it" wrong.

    Yes! The biggest problem though is that "morning wood" has become "morning steel" and is damn near painful.. and no one around to umm.. lend a helping hand.


    To kms1320........ Ummmm...Need your help....How do you keep the steel from turning to soft putty? BTW......Do you swim? I like your ABS, what program are you on?

    If you are not grossed oou I would accept a friend request from you.......

    I am actually hoping mine will go up. I have a pretty crappy libido and it got worse after I had my son. My poor hubby....:(

    I know a lot of my problem lies in where I just hate my body. I feel ugly, gross and even though my husband and I are both fat and he loves me and compliments me, I just don't feel it. I think loosing weight will help me greatly. Well heck it should because I lost 20 lbs early 2011 and ended up pregnant a few months later. xD

    I meant the sex. Not the lifting.

    From his pics- I assume he has a firm grasp on fitness/bodybuilding physiology/strategy. From his comment, I assume the same is not true of his sexual adventures.

    Most people go the gym so they could have more sex...I'm just the opposite. To me sex is a tranquilizer I have at the end of the day to help me sleep and relax... so I can lift harder the next day!

    Haha.. at times I use it the same way, but there are sexual encounters that have that transcendent quality too- a connection of mind and body that's difficult, if not impossible, to replicate... I love anything that encompasses both (which is another reason I love lifting). Don't discount it's value..

    Wait I found that my guys libido has decreased with weight loss. I mean he's got a woman sitting next to him right now that would do so many dirty things and all he wants to do is play mine craft! I think you guys are lying your libido decreases with weight loss.

    Haven't noticed a change.. I am more frisky post-TOM and frisky in general to begin with. I think losing fat has given me more confidence for sure though!

    I'm just tired especially when I've worked out, chased after kids most of the day, had a quickie then had sex again before bed. Good thing I workout or I would NEVER have the energy to keep up :laugh:

    Not so awesome when you're single :grumble:

    Or when your BF lives 2.5 hrs away and you only see him every 2 weeks.

    He doesn't work out much but his is very high, very very high. Hmmm, wonder what would it be like if he worked out?

    Must make the sex and time spent together so much sweeter. Being around someone 24/7/365 ain't what its cracked up to be some days :laugh:
