NSV I've waited over 18 years for!

SabrinaJL

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.

I actually added 10 pounds to my original goal after asking my husband what he weighs. I did weigh less than him when we married 20 years ago. We are the same height and I have weighed significantly more than him for the past 14 years or so. I will be so happy when I weigh less than him. Only 40 pounds to go!

Great job!

I've been waiting for this one for the entire 17 years my husband and I have been together. I think 18 years will be the magic number for me too! Congratulations!!! :flowerforyou:

Congrats! That is a sweet NSV! Like it!

I understand completely. I've not ever weighed more than my DH, but we are getting very close to the same weight and that motivates me. I've been gaining and he's been losing.

Way to go!!! That is the best NSV!!! I can't wait for the day that when they mention a "big" football players weight and I am finally under that weight.....now that is embarrassing!

suzikay

Wow: how brilliant is that?!! My DH won't weigh himself at the moment but he has been losing weight with me because he's eating what I'm eating and he's taken himself in hand regarding the food he eats out of the house. He has had an NSV, though: needs a new hole punching in his belt!

Congratulatons! I know the feeling. It's awesome! I'm finally weigh less than my hubby. Actually, I weigh less than when we got married. So, enjoy the feeling and keep up the great work! :happy: :flowerforyou:
