Lady parts question

Ok. Now it is my turn to ask something embarrassing. I have been married to my dh for 12 yes and thought for the last 5 or so that the loving was lacking excitement for me just due to the fact we had been together so long ad "done it all" in bed and that it was normal for things to get kinda vanilla (plain) in that area of our lives. But now that I have been losing weight and have more energy we are having sex more often which is good. And it is more exciting and I am more sensitive down there and he even said he could tell a difference. Was my fat lady bussiness to blame for our lack of lust? Well I am glad that is resolving now! Anyone else have this experience?

I've certainly had the energy renewal!! And I look and feel different "down there" but sadly, no increase in sensitivity. I think that has a lot to do with my age (48) and generally things just getting less sensitive overall, not anything to do with the banding.

I am only 24 and feel the same way. But i could be how we feel about our bodies before the lap band versus after. Before we are at our wits end with our body and after we have renewed hope. At least that is what i hope i feel when/if i get approved. :/

I fell the same way im more sensitive, and my as they call it "fat pad" has shrunk down so I notice things more i guess. I have also notice on certain occasions when the dh is focusing dwn there that hes not having to move skin around, are part the seas idk how to explain it without being to graphic, haha but it makes me feel really goo that he doesnt now ive oly lost 25lbs so far and there actually is a big difference.

OH and ps is anyone else having dry skin issues or itching where your skin is shrinking? I am and its in an awkward place, its on the side where leg and lady part meet, like where ur underwhere goes and a little inner hard to explain. But it like dry skin and itchy!! idk what to do!!

I have had that before. After my shower and after I dry off very good, I put a layer of baby powder before I put on my panties. It keeps it from rubbing. It went away after a few days.

Good luck.
