My libido is through the roof since having surgery. It is, without a doubt, the highest it has ever been in my life. A juicy, throbbing beast of arousal. It's like I have a whole new set of nerve endings and with the slightest whiff of sexuality they are firing on all pistons. I haven't even lost that much weight; the weight I'm at now is one I've been at many times in my life, with unspectacular effects on my sex drive.
But everything has changed. I understand the appeal of David Guetta songs. I understand why people risk going to jail for public indecency. I understand why women look forward to doing laundry so much. I even think I may be beginning to understand how it feels to be a man. Make that a teenage boy. Let me put it this way, I don't think I'll need to continue the 30 Day Abs Challenge to see results by next week.
I have a theory for this: For the first time in my life, the prospect of a toned, sexy body is real. Guaranteed, in fact, as long as I don't push my sleeve. I think my libido went to sleep years ago when it realized it wasn't going to be put to use anytime soon, and now it has awoken like a bear jolted out of hibernation by jumper cables.
And how the hell is it that men KNOW when you're feeling like this? Walking my dog today, literally every man I passed turned his head. Two guys even slowed their cars waaaaaaaaayyyy down as they were passing by and watched me. I was wearing sweatpants, slurping on a protein shake, and carrying a bag of $h!t - not exactly exuding an air of....well, what I'd just done in the shower.
If you can relate, I would love to hear from you. Especially if you're single like me. How did/do you keep yourself under control? I feel like I'm on the verge of doing something stupid. As a teacher in a small town, something tells me if I were caught in a park humping the statues people wouldn't want me around their children anymore.
The scale finally moved again!!! It didn't happen all at once, but I went from 227 lbs to 216 lbs. I am very happy and pleased with that lost. My work schedule has been absolutely brutal as of late. I get home so late, that going to the gym as been off my radar. This the last week though, and I vowed to myself that I will start again. I actually do miss it.
This brings me to my next piece of news. We have decided not to wait until November before getting pregnant !!! The doctor suggested between 12 to 18 months. My labs for my yearly check up were fantastic, so we are moving forward with the baby!!!! The hubby and I went away this weekend( the after picture was taken last night after dinner). While were talking he expressed how happy and proud he was of me( VERY UNUSUAL) and how he couldn't wait for the baby. I am happy with were I am. So I figured why wait?!
So it is vital for me that I start exercising again, and keep my body tone and healthy.
