Of course, because after that 1 yr hiatus, the sex would be so gratifyingly explosive!

                                  the joy that sex brings is fleeting....the joy of feeling skinny is enduring. A year without sex would be worth it :)

                                      Sex is over rated. I would rather be comfortable all of the time the really happy a few times.

                                        I love my husband and our love life too! That would be punishment for us both. I'll just exercise to stay in shape and keep loving my man

                                            Yes, and I think my fiance' would agree to it. He's probably so tired of my complaining about my weight and my body. I know that he knows how self concsious I am. Our sex after a year, with me being thin again, Wow!
