Question 5

how can i be less nervous in sex?

Accepted Answer

What's the concern?: If there are health / discomfort issues, resolve these with your physician. If you're with someone who cares for you, communicate openly and he/she will put you at ease. While what your body does is only partly under your control, you can communicate, ask what the partner likes best, and use your entire body to satisfy them. That's your key. Love selectively and well.

Overall weight loss: With natural weight loss (by eating fewer calories and exercising more to use up stored fat), one loses fat from all body parts. Avoid sugars and simple carbs.
