Okay so ladies, are you more comfortable wearing sexy clothes for your men? :blushing: I think it's a self image thing or something but I still can't get myself to do it and I feel bad because my husband wants me to. Should I just do it and get over the way I feel about my body? Am i going to get banned for starting this subject?

    Just flaunt yourself girl!! My husband says one of HIS favorite things about me losing weight is not so much my body but that I feel confident enough to walk around naked!! :laugh: :laugh:

    I get out of the shower, showing everything........feeling great..and he's like "YES!!!!! SCORE!!!" :laugh: :laugh:

    I mean i'm comfortable around my husband but I just feel silly wearing the slinky stuff. I don't know why. Plus, I don't feel like I look good in them so it makes the whole ordeal less fun for me because instead of enjoying the moment i'm worrying about how fat I look. :grumble:
  • i totally agree! losing weight is an enormous accomplishment. you should be proud of the hard work you've done and the amazing results you're seeing. feeling confident and loving your body are so important. celebrate that confidence and show it off!

    Maybe after I lose a few more pounds. I still feel like my stomach needs a lot of work before I do that.
  • Dressing sexy for yourself or for your man reflects that you love yourself including all your flaws. It's the confidence you exhibit that reflects your beauty!
  • My husband is the same way...i too don't feel comfortable wearing sexy clothes but he wants me too!

    Well...I've always been pretty self-conscious, even when I was the lowest I've ever been...I just never wore anything too tight or revealing. But I find outfits that really flatter my body and am comfortable in them. Some of them are sexy...but not TOO much...ya know?! You have to be comfortable also.

    Good luck!

    and I know my husband thinks i'm beautiful. Hell, he thought I was sexy before I lost all this weight. It's not him at all, it's just me. I wish I could be one of those people that just didn't care and wore what I wanted and felt great about myself.

    You know, I am not completely happy with all my parts....but I am so proud of myself and feel so much better and smaller....and have so much more fun looking for clothes..that I enjoying the positive things and not focusing on the negative.

    I know it's hard to get to that point and I am still self conscious about things but really....you only have one life to live. It's almost like having a baby. Some people try to wait for the "perfect time" to have a child. There really is no such thing. If you waited for the perfect time, you would never have one! LOL!
    So, instead of waiting for the "perfect body" to feel good in front fo your hubby...just embrace what is beautiful and wonderful about you and your body....and know that he is enjoying it too!!! :wink:
  • I'm really shy about it and I've just recently bought a short skirt for my boyfriend's eyes only. I do feel like a moron in it but he absolutely loved it! He was so supportive and encouraging when I had it on, he really made it a positive experience. And now instead of me being embarrassed of my jiggly legs, it's all the more motivation to work out. Skankier skirt, here I come! I' m sure you're husband will be just as encouraging and supportive! Best wishes!

    See that's another thing, how the hell do I even do it? I have never been the kind to just wear something skimpy for him (even though I do think I have an inner hooker lurking in there :laugh:). Will he be like WTF? Or LGF? :noway: :laugh:

    Ummm, I HIGHLY doubt his reaction to you wearing sexy clothes is going to be "WTF!" LOL!

    His jaw will probably drop to the floor and he will be like "MAN, my wife is HOT!!" :wink:

    Hi

    Woman are sooooo much tougher on ourselves and so critical of our bodies...stinks!
    I think *most* men would be happy as pie if we were to dress up in something sexy for them...they don't care about a little fat here, roll there...LOL
    I know that's hard to grasp sometimes......WE need to get over it...

    Ok ladies - you married this special guy right? Because he is the one who loves you most, cares for you emotionally and physically right? You didn't marry him because he'd hurt you.

    Put the corset, thigh highs and some heels! You'll be amazed how great you look and probably even more amazed at how great you feel. Then you can let him check out how great you feel.

    You can do it! :flowerforyou:

    Trust me. He will not have either reaction. A well known comedian said it best. Men only want TWO things: a cold beer and to see a woman naked.

    I say go for it! His reaction will give you the confidence you need.:flowerforyou:

    Okay so what should I get? :noway: I need something flattering, seriously. I can't be walking around the house with something see through and tight. I need something sweet and sexy yet flattering. Is that too much to ask? :laugh:

    We were out shopping and I was looking at a trench coat...and my hubby immediately wiggled his eyebrows and said "Gonna go naked underneath???"

    I mean.........sheesh!!! Forget about the expensive stuff. Wear a coat or bathrobe or better yet.........a football jersey or mans button up shirt........with nothing else.........and that is ALL you need!! :wink: :laugh:

    Women sometimes get themselves so used to hiding behind loose fitting clothing because of weight problems, they forget what it feels like to wear something flashy and attractive.

    Wearing revealing clothing starts in your head.

    Step 1 --Go shopping - find things that are attractive and that YOU feel flatter you - add all the extras - the shoes, hair ties, perfume, makeup. Do NOT take your man. Men feel the less you have on, the more attractive you are, which at this point is the exact OPPOSITE of how you feel. This will be counterproductive to the mission.

    Step 2 -- Wear these things around your house - alone if you can - to 'test drive' them. You'll get used to how they feel, and how they look.

    Step 3 - Test drive them for real. Reveal some nice outfits to your man. Trust me, he's going to appreciate anything you put on!!

    Hope this helps.

    Well said and may I add that none of your men will do anything bad if you go that extra effort. You will reap the rewards promise.
