I'm not a lady, but I'm looking forward to not crushing my girlfriend once I've dropped the weight.

Also, since guys tend to be the more... uh, ACTIVE ones during sex, I'm looking forward to not feeling like I'm going to have a heart attack mid-coitus. That's a bit of a buzz kill...

Just to let you know, I can completely relate. Plus, I'm one of the few women in the world that believes anything over a 20-30 minutes in one session is considered exercise, and it loses it's appeal.

This site is fairly graphic, NOT PORN, but it is cartoony figures showing positions and etc.

I find it very useful, and especially now that I've lost weight and can achieve a lot of these, it has helped our sex life tremendously.

Ladies, excuse the newbie, but you have just made my day! I'm going to save it for a surprise for my hubby to find out...but I am sure glad to know I'll feel enough better about myself that I won't be ashamed or embarrassed for him to look at me anymore. He has never said anything but that he thinks I'm beautiful, but I feel uncomfortable, still.

The poor self esteem that can result from overweight and obesity is a big deal, and should not be written off.

But it's also important to remember that overweight and obesity can cause real, physiological problems that can lead to reduced sex drive and reduced sexual performance. Obesity reduces stamina and physically complicates sex -- even if you and your partner are the most willing partners around, if you're in pain or out of breath, it gets hard to maintain the mood.

Add to that the evidence that obesity disrupts hormonal function significantly -- I don't know about women, but in men, fat cells aromatize testosterone to estrogen, which is a Very Bad Thing for sexuality in men -- and you begin to see that it's not just "all in your head." Obesity is, to some degrees, a sex killer!

In fact, despite all of the fat acceptance sites saying otherwise (and, for the record, I'm pro-fat acceptance... I just think that you have to be realistic), I'm more surprised when an obese person has a NORMAL sex life. I suspect that for many obese people like my girlfriend and I, sex just sorta drops out of the picture.

I'm really looking forward to getting that part of the picture BACK again. We're too young to be sexless!

Female sexual dysfunction has many possible symptoms and causes. Fortunately, they're almost all treatable. Communicating your concerns and understanding your body and its normal response to sexual activity are important steps toward gaining sexual satisfaction.

      Hi everyone! I’m brand new here. I just went through all my pre-op requirements per my insurance company and now everything has been submitted and I’m just waiting for final approval and my surgery date. I’ve been doing research, watching YouTube videos, TikTok’s, ect.. trying to prepare my mind and what to expect so I’ll be ready for the surgery. I was so sure and so set and so ready and excited. However, now that I’ve done everything & it’s almost here, I am sooooooo scared! I know why I want it bc I’ve tried everything and I just don’t feel like I can lose weight by myself. I’m tired of being overweight my entire life. I’m miserable, but I keep psyching myself out afraid of GERD bc I know how that can be and I don’t want to have to get a bypass after already gaining the courage to even get VSG. I’m scared of complications like I’mgoing to regret doing it and be depressed that I didn’t just be more disciplined and try again to lose the weight on my own even sitting here typing this knowing in my mind i just can’t and don’t possess the discipline. I’m also afraid I won’t be able to handle the restrictions of the sleeve. What do I eat? I don’t know how to eat healthy really and don’t enjoy healthy food. I don’t know how to do this! I feel so defeated!Someone tell me they felt anything similar to this or am I not ready? I thought I was. I am so tired of being sick and tired and so tired of myself and so tired of being stuck and stuck in this body and somebody different on the outside from what I feel inside. I just want to ball up and cry.
