1)actual intercourse, approx 1-3 times per week
2)I'm fine with it that way.
3)I definitely think as I lose I'll be much friskier because I'm sure if DH could answer #2, he'd say every day lol. I have 45 more lbs to lose until I get to the weight I was when we met 10 years ago and I definitely felt more confident with my curvy hourglass figure. I have the jeans I wore on our first date in 1998 and I'm ready to be that gal again!
1. About once a week
2. About two - three times a week
3. I think we'll have more sex after we're actually married, since we live with my parents now and sometimes that makes it difficult

Here are the questions:
1. How often do you ?
2. How often would you LIKE to ?
3. Do you think this will stay the same or change with your weight loss, and if so in what way?
My answers:
1. About once a week
2. 3-4 would be nice
3. I tend to feel more frisky when I feel better about my body, so it will get better for me (I hope )
3. It will boost my confidence more and i'll probably try new positions... id love it one day if my man could do me against the wall...
Agreed!!!
1. Once a week or so, maybe...our schedules kinda conflict.
2. At least 2x a week
3. Most definetly. I have a lot of self-esteem issues because of my weight, which hubby thankfully overlooks and doesn't care at all about, but I'd still feel better about it if I wasn't so heavy x_X;; I think I'd be up for trying new things.
1. 4-5 times a week (sometimes more sometimes less -- I don't live with any significant other, it can vary week to week)
2. Every day
3. After I lost weight, my sex life went from nil to overdrive. It had a profound affect on my dating/sex life. I actually was a virgin until I lost the weight -- now I'm making up for lost time.
1. once a month or less.
2. weekly at least, a couple times a week would be nice.
3. i think it makes a difference and i hope once we have lost weight it'll increase. exercise seems to make a difference for him at least.
1. long distance relationship.
2. daily
3. I think I'm headed for the same situation as harpogroucho. I didnt let anyone get intimate with me until I had lost a substainal amount of weight (lots of self loathing I'm trying to move past). It's only going to get better now...
1. Right now probably 4 or so times a week. Would be more, since the relationship is fairly new, but BF is usually tuckered out from work during the week. That'll change after next week though when I go back to Maryland for the semester.
2. Oh, that's probably about right. I could go everyday, though... haha.
3. I've for some reason never really had any big issues about my weight that prevented me from doing it, at least as far as feeling confident. I'm sure things will get better though in terms of... variety when I get closer to goal. :P
1. How often do you ? Um...with a partner?
2. How often would you LIKE to ? With a partner, two to three times a week, at least.
3. Do you think this will stay the same or change with your weight loss, and if so in what way? I don't know. I need a man first.
Clearly someone (me) is pissed off because she doesn't have a man.
/rant over
But seriously, I've noticed since I've been losing that my drive seems to be "losing" too. I'm not sure where it went? Anyone else having this problem?

1. I feel weird telling this to anyone, but I and my hubby hardly ever do "it" although we are not without sex either. The "it" part la-la-la-la-la-la just doesn't do la-la-la-la-la-la anything for me, so we've dropped "it" from the menu. We're very touchy feely in other ways though. Hubby doesn't take the lack of "it" too seriously and neither do I. It used to bother me more when I was younger and felt I was a freak of some sort. Now I've gotten over it.
2. Wouldn't mind a bit more of the imaginative variations...
3. I doubt losing weight does anything to this problem.
how often do i? about twice a week
how often would i like to? that is a hard one.. all my life i have been a 1-as many as i could per day type a girl... but since i have gotten soooo big, i dont feel the 'urge' quite as often as i used to ... i would have to say 3-4 would be good.
weight DEFINATELY has something to do with it.. well, at least the effects of weight.. i get tired walking to the corner, and sex is a much bigger workout than that lol...the more i exercise tho, the 'friskier' i feel...
1) Well, with this one, its not me, its him. He works long hours and gets tired. When things started slowing down for him, I told him I needed SOMETHING almost every day. So we snuggle, 1-2 times per day and it makes me feel connected to him.
2) Probably every day although my urge has slowed down a bit.
3) I was definitely more motivated when I was heavier. I think it was my hormones out of whack that shifted me into overdrive.
