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.

      Just been waiting until time for my consult with my bariatric surgeon. It's scheduled for Jan 9th. Turns out I won't actually be seeing him. Apparently it'll be with his P.A.             Not sure what to expect. I thought this is where the surgeon would discuss the best surgery option for me. For years I had my heart set on the sleeve, but I've read so many people have issues with reflux - even if they've never had it before - that they've had to be revised to the bypass. I already deal with GERD & take 40 mg of Omeprazole daily, so I started studying about bypass and honestly, it seems like it might be the better choice for me. How can we discuss surgery options if the surgeon is not there?
      What happened at your first consult? Trying to get an idea of what to expect, or maybe I should say, what NOT to expect.
