Ok yall, we are all adults here. And, as I promised, I am going to keep it real with my readers! I know no other way! So...this is grown folk talk in this post!
I was talking with a girlie friend today about some of the unexpected benefits of weightloss...when I realized that there really are several! Most folks think of the obvious ones like being able to fit into smaller clothes or bending over to tie your shoes without feeling like you're gonna pass out (lmbo...it happens!!). To be able to actually see and feel your knee caps and wrist bones. To be able to see your collar bone! Those are major NSV's (non scale victories).
One HUGE surprise was the increase in my libido!! O.M.Gosh! I was aware of the increase gradually, but not really paying attention to it. It certainly has my attention now! Sometimes I feel like the men...always thinking about sex! I am very in tune with my sensual side now. Not sure if its because I am feeling more confident, more comfortable with my body, not tired all the time...maybe it's a combination of them all! Either way, the libido has increased by leaps and bounds! I am more inclined to try new things because I am not concerned with not being able to breathe! (i know someone other than me has been in that "position")...don't judge me! Lol.
Needless to say, my husband will enjoy this benefit as well! (sorry honey). Ladies we have to put it on our men and blow their minds every now and then! Big beautiful women included! Never feel like you are not worthy of love! We can work it just like the thin girls!
I am so much more confident in myself and I love me more and more everyday!

This is So true, I know I for one am especially uncomfortable with my body and my abilities I think I deprive my hunny. Thanks for bringing some shinning light on this situation
ReplyDeleteIt is very easy to become uncomfortable with yourself when things change...have a baby, gain weight, etc. But we have to learn to love the skin we are in for the moment! I did the same thing...was very uncomfortable when I gained weight. But I began to realize if we dont love our bodies, how can we expect our mates to do the same! Dress up that body anyway and show your man that bigger can be just as beautiful!
