Do you have a higher sex drive when you are getting fit compared to before?

I have noticed for me my sex drive has increased since starting to lose weight. It wasn't bad before but now I feel better and I have more energy. Curious if anyone else has noticed this with themselves (singles can answer this as well lol)

Use the Search tool for "Sex drive". That is the most popular subject after cico, kittehs, and boobs.2

i noticed the opposite
i'm hoping it's because my hormones are out of whack. i'm trying to lower body fat percentage so i feel my body is busy working trying to hold on to what i have left to let me even notice a sex drive. i hope my upcoming diet break helps restore this because this is super lame!

Nope, I don't think so. The difference is I used to get exhausted so quickly, now not at all but no changes to libido.0

No. I have always had a very high sex drive. Being fit gave me more confidence that I look desirable, so I am comfortable persuing it more.0

I hear there's hope in a little blue pill... or a twenty something...1 -
I've never, been fit but my sex drive, has always been high! Oddly though since becoming disabled, it's now insatiable & nothing affects it, to diminish it! Unfortunately everything I've done to try to, only increases it instead!0

I thought it was just me!
It’s kind of waning now that I’ve established a routine. The first week I was like a cat in heat. Now I’m just like meh. I could live the rest of my life without seeing another penis tbh. Not worth the stress and anxiety
