    My surgeon said I can have sex right away, just not Olympic, so basically that means no sex for a while

Haha! You go, girl. ;)

I'm encouraged to hear that the drive could increase. I've gained nearly 90 lbs in the 6 years since the hubs and I met. :( He loves me, wants me, thinks I'm sexy, and tells me I'm beautiful every day!!! But I want to feel sexy inside and out. It's not just about looks. . . but about health, energy, stamina. . . and flexibility!! Haha. But love is the most important thing. So I guess I'm off to a great start! :)

Suzeeq- I hear ya! I am less than half way to my goal but feeling better about myself has really helped. This may sound weird but at my heaviest. It hugged me more that my hubbue still said he wanted me!

i agree

the more i lose, the sexier i feel and become

and that comes across to him...

hope it continues

Sounds like I'm the only one to say this...but yes...my has gone out the door and down the block...oh heck...I think it has packed up and moved. I think it is probably a combination of things that has caused this...such as school starting and me be exhaused (I'm a teacher), keeping up with a 4 year old, house chores, and a husband who keeps different hours. To be quite honest...I feel great with my small loss...but I don't really miss the sex at all. I just want to sleep.

mine did that the bigger i got (the more insecure i felt about myself) i did not feel attractive at all....and i guess i took alot out on hub....so i can relate..

and with you having such a busy life, its no wonder you just want to sleep. bless your heart

I think you feel this way because of the stage of life you are in. Been there done that. My kids are now college age so I am not running after kids so I can move my energy to other things. It will get better.
