Can Losing Weight Improve Your Sex Life?
If you are overweight / obese it is possible that you feel your sex life has gone forever.
Your libido or sex drive as it is more commonly known has diminished, maybe so much so that you have no interest in sex anymore.
Being overweight can make you feel unattractive. You will compensate for this by telling yourself you dont care. Making excuses eg Im too old for such things
It never seems to occur to us that if we lose some weight, we may well become the sexpots we were when we were younger.
Im not saying lack of sexual desire is caused only be being overweight. There are other possible reasons.
Other possible causes may be:
People with Diabetes On medication for High Blood Pressure Women of child-bearing years, despite the sophisticated contraception available now, may still fear becoming pregnant again. Older people have the mistaken idea that sex is for the youngsters, and now they have reached a certain mature age, they consider themselves past it. Men may have problems in their plumbing departments Being Depressed or Stressed Etc.
If you have lost interest in sex, could any of the above reasons be what is causing your problem?
So what if you have shaken your head at all the above reasons think of approaching your GP about your problem. He may refer you to a sex therapist, once he/she has checked you out for other reasons for your lack of interest in sex.
There is no need to be embarrassed, its more common than you may think. Do you think its only you? All your friends have perfectly normal sex lives. But who knows what goes on behind the walls of other peoples homes.
If you are overweight what would be the advantages of losing weight?
The obvious, youd look and feel better You might well save your own life because of the various conditions being overweight may trigger eg
High Blood Pressure Diabetes Heart Attacks Strokes etc
So losing weight has a lot going for it.
Who knows, you might even get your sex drive back again and this is irrespective of your age.
