Do you think it may be just the calorie restriction affecting libido vs the medication? I haven't noticed any difference. I just googled it and it sounds like there is no definitive research about that yet. Maybe it differs from person to person just as side-effects do?

I don't think it is the calorie restriction. Maybe a combination of Tirzepatide and menopause (but I am taking hormone replacement)

Sounds like a side-effect. I never took hormone replacement. When I went through menopause 20 years ago it was a no-no for women with any risk of heart disease (my father died of a heart attack at 48). Boy did I have the most horrendous hot flashes.

Raining again and I am calling it officially Fall. Flannel sheets and downy comforters on bed. Love love snuggling into that stuff which partially makes up for the much too early daily darkness.

Saturday laundry and kitchen cleaning done and since everything looked so very nice DH and I put up the last of the season's tomatoes and green peppers into a lovely meat sauce. Too lazy to can so into the deep freeze with it. Had some over a baked sweet potato for supper and it was yummy.

Vegging on sofa watching old Perry Mason episodes with Kurt and, of course falling asleep. Tomorrow looks like an early wake up with the time change (retirement bonus is not having to be on anyone's schedule- so there.)

I like to snuggle under warm blankets too so I use the AC to drop the temperature quite a bit at night here.

Liz, thanks to your advice years ago, most nights I sleep with socks on. It really helps me get to sleep.

Thank you!

I was just thinking yesterday that it was about time to put the flannel sheets on!
