Sorry, no bite here, I think that if you are secure enough with your relationship with your spouse, the sex IS wonderful regardless of your weight. (but this is my opinion) And from a personal standpoint, where I was with my husband before and after all the weight its only gotten better as the years go by.

Well, now that I have probably horrified some of you;

Some of the reasons I want to be thinner:

1) I want to have a baby (working on 10 years of infertility here)
2) I want to actually LIKE having my picture taken.
3) When I go into a health food store I dont want the clerk to assume I am there for treatment of my weight.
4) I want to be healthy, and not a walking heart attack (or any other fat ailment)
5) I want to "do stuff" (skiing, rollerblading, - these are things I have never done and have been too self conscious to do-afraid to make an ass of myself in front of all those skinny people)
6) I want to buy the occasional sweet treat and not have people give me....."THE LOOK"....
7) I want to be an example to my children (if and when) of a healthy lifestyle
8) Want to wear nice, sexy clothes (okay, a little vain, but hey!)
9) I want my husband to bear hug me and lift me up without my fearing he is going to seriously hurt himself!! (he does it all the time, and he says that I'm light as a feather - yeah ok - I love my hubby! )

This is a great topic!!
