Sex

May 26, 2011

OK, now I've got your attention!

My husband and I have been married for 22 years and with my weight gain over the years (and he has gained too- well, not as much as I did) it certainly had slowed down our libido. For myself it was due to embarrassment in the bedroom with my figure. With him....I don't want to speak for him, but I'm pretty sure I know the reason and perhaps it had to do with my weight.

Well, with the 40 lb weight loss thus far, I must say we are doing better and better. From once a month (before surgery) to now (8 weeks post op).... this week.....ta dah....2 times....yippee!  I feel that this is the measure of success in our relationship because as many of you know it is the most intimate way of being with your mate and connecting. I feel fulfilled (wink wink) and I totally feel like my gastric by-pass has been a success.

I am renewed this morning in my efforts to lose more (yes...weight loss slows down) weight and to chose wisely the food I consume and to keep exercising.
