    Sex life is good here but I am hoping I'll look better for the husband once my weight is gone, especially since he is basically normal/fit weight. I try to picture how it would be if he was overweight and I got to admit I probably wouldn't be physically attracted to him. I know that sounds vain and hypocritical but its true so hopefully once I'm fit I won't be an eye sore to him. Of course he always tells me how pretty I am and how I'm attractive, etc, he's a very sweet guy.

    I would like to have a sex life. Unfortunately my wife still thinks I'm disgusting. I check in with her every 10 pounds or so. Sad but true. :)

    I know what you mean. After we found out that we could not have more kids, it was all over for us. I don't even remember the last time.

    Makes one wonder..... Just saying....

    I'm sorry that this is your reality.. It's not the only part, but sex is a big part of intimacy. As long as there is no physical/medical reason I don't understand why it would be absent.

    No physical/medical reason. I just don't think she likes me very much.

    Never thought of that. Guess I have no problem in that area. Doesn't matter anyway because when I drink I think I am a size 2 stripper. lol

    :laugh: *high five* Me too!

    Seriously though, I find that my drive goes up when I am eating healthy and exercising!

    I have to agree with both! Lol

    Sex life/drive was already good; however it's getting even better! When I am working out and eating healthy I feel like a bad *kitten* and my sex drive goes way up. Losing 15 inches definitely boosts my confidence!

    I'm hoping with weight loss come more confidence/interest once again, but at the same time Hubby needs to lose the 40 pounds he has gained too if I am to be interested. His belly isn't pleasing to me, it gets in the way. I'm hoping once I start losing some weight that he will follow along. Right now he's not into the idea.

    I struggle with this threefold:

    I feel like a whale (working on getting my weight under control, but still!)
    I have a decreased libido due to anti-depressants
    I am a sexual abuse survivor and have intimacy issues

    My husband is patient, but I can see that his patience is wearing thin.

    I really hope that once I lose some weight, I'll feel more attractive which will lead a higher libido, which will make me feel more comforable being intimate.

    PS: I am working on seeing a shrink to deal with my abuse issues in case you are wondering...

    I'm hoping to have a sex life once again. I'm single, but my self-confidence is pretty much zero right now. Really looking forward to the day I feel foxy again.


    This sums things up for me very well. It is something I miss very much.

    I just added yohimbine for its thermogenic properties. The side effects are a definite "perk".

    My wife has said I look better naked. I hope to keep going, but she already wants to rip my clothes off on my most nights.

    I never intended or thought about it, but since I've started a healthier lifestyle it's been pretty amazing.

    I've always felt like a porn star - now at a size 12, and before at a size 22 - confidence is in your head not your pants size.

    ***raising hands and jumping up and down***

    I think this is great and totally agree! But, being single, I believe the weight can be an obstacle to even be asked out. Again, this is where the confidence comes in. As our bodies change, our confidence grows and we put out a completely different vibe...ya know the one that says "I'm all that and you would be lucky to have me."

    I so agree with you on this. I am currently single too. I feel like I have put my dating life on hold until I lose the weight. I agree that it affects your confidence. Can't wait! Lol.

    Right with you on that! Fortunately/unfortunately (when drink is involved) I bought myself a pole and it's currently in my kitchen. The other week I went out for a friends birthday and invited everyone back to my house after many hours of drinking and plenty of Jager bombs. I then put a chair (the hot seat) in front of the pole and lap/pole danced the birthday girl then everyone else who came back including my friends 21 year old little brother!!! Thankfully no one took videos but it was fun to see all the photos the following day. I just wish I could keep that confidence without the help or calories of the vodka.

    Sex is good now, but I will be more comfortable in my own skin and not think about my flab knockin him in the face!! lolololol SORRY

    LMAO!! I hear you. When I was thinner canine/style (trying to keep it clean) was awesome!!! Loved it!! Now that I am fat...unless it is pitch black all I can think about is my flabby *kitten* & back waving all over the place!!!

    That being said... I have a pretty incredible sex life with my man. He wants me and NEVER EVER has said one negative thing about my body. I do sometimes let my own body image issues limit us....like canine-style!! LOL

    This thread really gave me a good laugh... thanks!

    often i forget that i am fat. when i was skinny i had way less confidence. i have no self esteem but my self confidence is as high as it can get

    sexercise is my favorite kind of exercise ...my perfectly fit 22 year old bf just told me he is worried i am a sex addict and fears our relationship will not survive his temporary relocation 2 hours away for work....lol

    i want to get fit for me but i also want to see myself the way he sees me
