This might be kind of a silly thing to be excited about but for the first time in the 18 1/2 years that we've been together, I weigh less than my husband. When we started dating, he was a scrawny 129 lb 17 year old and I was a healthy (but chubby) 165 lb 15 year old. We both gained weight over the years, but his was mostly from joining the Navy and working out a lot. Mine was all from eating too much junk and not getting enough exercise. I am now at 189. He saw the scale this morning and decided to weigh himself and he was at 193. I've had tons of NSVs, but this one made me ridiculously happy and I had to share.

    ha ha, I feel your pain! My DH is only 2 inches taller than me, but has a much slimmer build whatever size we are, I was thrilled to weigh less than him! I now weigh about 20 lbs less! :bigsmile:

    I am SO glad to hear I'm not the only one who would be thrilled about that! When we got married I was just 5 pounds lighter than my very tall and thin husband, but pregnancy sure changed that. My ultimate goal is to be a solid 15 pounds lighter than he is. Wish me luck--this is a NSV I'd KILL for! You should feel fantastic about yourself.
