Um... endowment?

Okay, okay, I know I'll get a whole lot of "size doesn't matter" responses to this, and it's embarrassing to even ask. However...

To us guys, our "endowment" is intimately tied to our self-esteem. Now, on that front, I'm doing okay genetically speaking, but, well, I'm fat. Obese. The result of that is that I have a big gut hiding... things from me, and a fat pad above the pubic area that also makes stuff look smaller than it really is.

Any guys (or gals for that matter) know if losing the weight will make the, um, package area more prominent?

I know, I know, it's silly and shallow, but then again -- isn't all concern over our appearance silly and shallow? I'm not counting on a dramatic change in this area, but it would be nice to have that uh... little REMINDER that "hey, I'm a man after all!"

Anyone?

The other day my girlfriend was saying she heard that for every 50 lbs of weight loss you get another inch of penis because the fat at the base of the penis goes away. We had always said our sex was probably so great because my penis was exactly the right length so that the end hits her G-spot when we have sex. Well losing weight would make the penis be able to go in farther and might shoot right past her G-spot and our sex might not be as good. So what did she say to that? We might have to throw a couple donuts on it as a "stop" if that happens. Hahahaha I laughed my ass off at that!

I previously suffered with Diabetes as well as High Blood pressure which somtimes results in low Testosterone levels in Men over 40... My doctor started me on Testosterone injections about 8 months before my VSG surgery and wow did stuff in our sex life change. Now, I had some shrinkage of the boys but Big brother responded well...!. then also with the increase in energy level and geting my Diabetes under control I subsequently lost about 75 lbs pre op..I was 470lbs December of '09 and pre op I was 387lbs June 29th '11 now i'm 367lb and the wife and I are like excited teenagers again. After 25 years of marriage we are going strong like when we were in our 20's WOW....!

and now while laying on my back I can see big brother again when in an excited state.... :-) Stuff does change!!!!!
