Sex after weight loss



Recommended Posts

So far it's better .... I think having the extra weight on ... suppressed my desire ... but now ... I feel like I can move around better and not be so embarrassed to wanna try new things ....

I'm very blessed in that I have a husband who doesn't care about the weight and I could swing from the ceiling and it would be ok with him!

Hope mine is better. My husband always tells me that I could gain more weight and he'd love me. But our sex life is stuck somewhere, and it's not here.

I feel very unattractive, so I am really hoping and praying for improvements.

I feel like my desire is returning, but I think it's because I have more energy and am less tired and I feel better about myself and my body overall. I feel sexy again. My husband has never cared about my weight, thankfully.

Even "old people" sex is better. I am more flexible and enthusiastic. Even the Wellbutrin helps.

From the male side its a totally different life. im ashamed a bit to admit i used to last about 4 minutes and the fat pad around my a..area was hiding quite a bit. now im horny as a porcupine on steroids three times as...endowed and average 20 to 25 minutes per . From the male side of things, its a whole diferent ball game..pun not intended.

I'm telling you this.... Our sex life has improved sooo much since I've been losing. I keep asking my husband if it feels different and he says not really but since I feel soo good physically and about myself thst it's a real turn on. Btw, we've been married 19 plus years and 3 boys! We are enjoying each other soo much more right now than we ever have!

Hope the same will be for you!!

Hi, I found out my low desire is caused that I have low Testosterone.. Found in my pre-op blood work.

I'm like WHAT? I'm a female isn't that for a guy?

My nurse said no, even us women need a little bit.. So, I googled it and it directly affects women's reproductive ability and yes sexual desire. My nurse said very common for many of her overweight female patients.. she said as I lose weight, I will regain to a more normal level. Just google it and check your blood work, and likely you're the same too. It also can affect ability to lose weight. Thinking about my current stall I might consider finding out how I can increase mine in the meantime.

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!

      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.

        Am feeling this right now. My surgery date is 4/1. Sign the consent tomorrow. I feel like I overloaded myself with too much info, too many opinions. Got to the point where I was wondering if I should do this. Then I thought of my reasons for taking this step and that settled my nerves. Still get moments of doubt but am striving forward. Am just going to follow my book from the surgeon. Joined this because I was told by my dietician that I should do this for support
