    Let's face it, we all want to be able to wear this label (even if some of us will keep it under a sensible jumper and only take it out for OH's to see)

    I have a naturally low sex-drive, and birth control has knocked that down to practically 0.

    Between this, stress, work, classes, etc on both my part and my boyfriend's we were being intimate MAYBE once a month. I love this man profoundly and one of the ways of expressing love is through this awesome trust building action. I'm hoping with my weight loss it may help rectify the lack of such occasions. It's simply not fair to either of us.

    I'm -27 pounds since February and MUCH more fit.

    I feel sexier
    I look sexier.
    Quality of my sex has improved.

    Logistically, it's no holds barred as far as positions go.

    WIN!!!! :drinker:

    I am so happy this topic is out here! Since losing weight and getting fitter i feel more confident and have been able to do more different positions I was afraid to try before! I can't wait til I lose more and more just to see how my sex life goes!

    When my fiancé and I first met we had an amazing sex life, best of my life. Slowly as we both gained weight it slowed. Now we both feel insecure and too tired to have sex. That is a huge motivation for me to lose the weight, I miss the closeness we had and the way we made each other feel. Sex is better when you feel confident in yourself.

    Yes, I feel that after 50 lbs and several inches not only am I coming out of the covers (no pun intended, you poster up there that reverts to being a 12 year old); but I've become emboldened to try new things as well as feeling confident in my own desirability as a partner. It's a lot of stuff that goes in inside one's head... but then again, isn't most of sex that way?

    I guess this has turned into a general sex discussion. :)

    To talk about sex, one of my favorite topics.

    Since losing my weight, my testosterone has dropped drastically. My drive has dropped too. :/ I had a T score of like 217. I'm 28. The shots seem to have this 2 weeks of awesome, 2 weeks of not awesome affect. I'm still doing them, and trying to do natural testosterone boosting a few days before the not awesome. I have no idea if it is because of the weigh loss, it may just be the timing. One odd thing I forgot I used to get was foot hair. I hadn't had it in a while. My Low T issues may have been before the weight loss. Now that I'm on T injections I gots it again. Never thought I'd be happy with that. lol

    I'm a lot more energetic and eager in bed. I'm bigger down below about .75 inches bigger. Which I thought would be awesome.. but wife lost weight too and.... now the cervix is hit and its like...damn.. I miss going all the way.

    I do find myself very appealing to many people since the weight loss.

    These have been my issues with sex since losing the weight.

    It's a pity that topics involving weight loss and sex seem to get removed here. I think that it's a very valid topic, and should be discussed particularly by people that have had major changes once they've lost weight. I understand there are plenty of pervs around that ruin it (slowly raises their hand) but I also think it's extremely important to talk about positives in every aspect of the human condition, including sexuality.

    Anyway, that's all I'll comment on, because I don't want to go more graphic in talking about what's on my mind.

    Are there any other websites that go into this topic in a non-creepy way?

    I wanna know how you knew I raised me hand - dude, that's just spooky...

    I dunno about websites, but I'll give you my personal opinion.

    Sex is WAY better when you are fit. You have a lot more stamina, can move easier and things just feel better :)

    Sex IS the reason people usually start dieting and working out, although they might say it's because of their health or other reasons. I guess no one wants to admit that looking good for sex is a valuable reason, we have to find others more meaningful, right?

    Well, thing is, Sex is what drives species to better themselves, for whatever reasons, the mating season always brings out the best of all species, so, why not our own?

    Oh, and I just wanted to add this:

    my husband is one of those people who'll eat their hearts out and never grows fat. In fact, if he has something bothering him for three days and he eats a little less than usual, he'll just look like he's been on a diet for months!
    That used to kill me, and make me hide under the sheets - no sex for me!

    But lately... well, lets just say that working out, makes me feel powerful, loosing inches makes me feel sexy and the two combined make me feel like I could go on for hours!

    Now he's the one who hides under the sheets! But.. I don't usually let him, so... Well, you can imagine...

    One odd thing I forgot I used to get was foot hair. I hadn't had it in a while. My Low T issues may have been before the weight loss. Now that I'm on T injections I gots it again. Never thought I'd be happy with that. lol

    Are you sure it isn't now that you are thinner you can see your toes again and they've been hairy all along?

    I don't mind saying that sex improves as you lose weight- there's some motivation :blushing: My husband and I are on this journey together and I like feeling as thought I look better for him and hey, he's looking great too, I feel me more comfortable with myself which helps as well. So, yeah, sex gets better. Why is is a problem to say so?
