bedroom question



Recommended Posts

My husband and I have a great relationship but I often wonder after I lost the weight if it will change anything. I mean how will I feel if he is more turned on after I loose the weight. Don't get me wrong I don't want him to go the other way but it just makes me wonder of what he really thinks of me fat. I don't know what I'm saying does anyone out there get of what I'm trying to say? :faint:

I know how you feel. I started dating my BF when i was a size 16-18 ( i miss those days). Although i did gain weight from a surgery on my knee which put me preety much sedentary for a couple of weeks, i do wonder what he thinks of me. I know he loves me and accepts me but at the same time i am not the skinny "girls " that he likes to look at. Sometimes i wonder if he is attracted to me and what will happen after my surgery and after i loose weight. However i do have the comfort that he does love me and loves me as i am... I guess the question here is "how do you feel about yourself?" I have struggled with this myself. i understand how you feel..

Seems to me the question is do you feel that your marriage is based on love and friendship or sexual attraction? Men are visual creatures and sometimes a beautiful woman catches their eye, do they love you less because you are not the victoria secret model? Only if they are shallow. Either he loves you or he doesn't. If he loves you it is only normal for him to be attracted to the new healthier you! For one thing he will be turned on by the fact that you are more confident and feel sexier. I have to say that 70+ lbs has made a difference for my DH and me. We can do things we never could before and it's fun and exciting. I hope you find what you are looking for in your marriage and your weight loss, good luck :)

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.
