Afternoon guys and girls, so my wife has been on the jabs with the nhs a week now, before this she wasn’t confident with her body, her weight played a big part of it. Although I find her hugely attractive and arousing anyway. This led to a huge dip in her sex drive, add in the pain from past surgeries due to endo etc, which doesn’t bother me in the slightest bit, bothers her more than me because we used to be having sex everyday. Now she feels bad that we don’t.
Do any of you experience a lift in your sex drive along with the weight loss?
I think that’s mainly how my wife. She’s always been curvy, since being diagnosed with fibromyalgia and her mobility massively reducing. She did put weight on. That never bothered me. Nothing about her bothers me. I’d just like to see her back to her confident self
My sex drive has went through the roof since I lost weight! Probably a good mixture of confidence, energy and hormones starting to settle back to some sort of normality so definitely a game changer! Best of luck to your wife for her weight loss
Yes, my libido has skyrocketed since losing a bit of weight. For me it helped balance my hormones (I have PCOS/PMOS) plus I am less puffy and inflamed. The added bonus of lingerie fitting nicer has helped boost my confidence too.
Wishing your wife all the best with her weight loss Hopefully she sees some relief from the fibro/endo symptoms as she loses weight. As she sees results, her confidence will return - especially if it helps with pain/mobility. You seem incredibly supportive and that is so important and will help her so much
Supposedly excess fat in the body changes the hormones circulating in the bloodstream. Couple that with bad body image, and not feeling energetic, no wonder some people enjoy sex more if they are trimmer. My wife is just starting an excersise program aimed at weight loss to treat high blood pressure. Not a lot of progress so far, it is a slow process to lose weight at our age, without starving yourself. I hope she is successful, and I’m here to cheer and support her in any way. I find her sexy even at her current weight, but slimmer would be better. She will never be skinny, it’s not in her DNA , but losing 20 pounds would be great.
From personal experience I have gone from 23st down to 14.5st, and my sex drive is through the roof, since losing the weight, body confidence is massively higher, and going to gym/running gets all the good juices flowing which in turn makes my sex drive high, my wife has recently started weight loss and she is feeling good and confident, and he drove is slowly coming back, I find her incredibly attractive, her her new found confidence is a massive turn on for me
Congratulations on your weight loss, it’s often a hard thing to do, but so worth it health wise. And if your wife gets trimmer as well you both will benefit. I have lost about 20 pounds over the past 6 months, and definitely feel better and look better. As a couple, when you both participate in a weight loss process you can support each other and share in the benefits. Good luck in the future.
