Your husband gained weight and his sex drive is very low?
Weight gain and a diminished sex drive can be related to diabetes or depression. He should visit his physician for diabetes screening.Depending on the amount of weight gain, he may feel less sexy, or be afraid that you are less attracted to him. His attitude - and his perception of YOUR attitude - has a LOT of influence on his sex drive.And carrying around a lot of extra weight puts extra strain on the heart; if you're trying to keep him around for a few more years, you might want to encourage him to become more active. Losing the weight reduces the chances for Type II diabetes, may help improve his self-image and mood, and will almost certainly improve his heart health.(However, I am mindful that Jim Fixx, the original guru of running, died young of a heart attack while on the track.)
