Hello
I am Tex and have decided that 5'9" and 46" belly is just a little (HeckOfALot) outta control. But have a wife that is 5'6" and barely 100lb when wet. She can eat a half gallon of ice cream every 2-3 days and still never go over 100lbs.

She believes in eating, eating and then eating some more.

So here goes my battle.... 34" jeans with no dunlap! 1year ...

I will post my results as we go, hopefully I will not get discouraged .....

This program looks great and from the forums I have read it looks like everyone is wanting to help each other.

Thanks to MFP for giving....

    Welcome!

    Now this is unusual. Usually it's the guy that can eat anything and not gain a pound while the woman gains just looking at ice cream. Unusual to have it the opposite. Good luck in your journey!

    My hubby is the same, he can eat anything and not gain a lb in weight, where as i've only got to look at a plate of chips and gain weight!

    Feel free to add me as a friend if you want to, good luck with your weight loss :smile:

    @Headup - ty for answering the question

    @jo2907 - I will add you as a friend, but how do you get around your husbands eating habits. My wife will fix a full coarse meal every night knowing that it effects me worse then her. But to be a good husband of 24 years I still sit down and eat not to offend her when I really want to pass.

    @Shannon023 - Ty, in the same boat, lost weight once and back at it again.

    @FearAnLoathing - hello, Goth ??? .... Years ago, knew a nurse that was into goth, now that is scary, one that knows how to use a scalpel and dresses in black.

    @mermx - kinda unique you would say that, "once you put your mind to it." I use that line with trainees and others and now I am in that predicament.

    I will be happy to add any one else as a friend if you wish ....
