    Finally I can say NO to this! For most of our relationship I have been ~10lbs heavier than my husband but now I am 15lbs ligher than him and working on making it even more!

    No, I don't. And to be honest, I couldn't date someone who weighed less than me - no matter what my weight.

    More motivation to drop weight!

    We have been together 7 years & our 5th wedding Anniversary is this year... and I have never weighed less than him :( I am hovering around 207 and right now, he is at 187 I believe, so I am getting there! Although, he is trying to lose now, too. So I just need to lose a little quicker so I can be less than him! I cannot WAIT to weigh less!!!!! :-) This is the closest I have been though since usually I am around 225 and he is usually closer to 180. So it's exciting for me!!!

    Hubby and I are the same height, and I surpass his weight by almost 100 pounds. I've been heavier than him since the day we met, so he doesn't see a problem with it. But I know that I'm at a very unhealthy weight, and I'm working to change that. If he stays at the same weight (and I see that he probably will stay around the same), I'll be about 20 pounds lighter at my goal weight.

    Yup, and embarassingly he's 6' 7" where I'm only 5' 7" :-$ I have 3 stone on him currently, yikes.

    I did lose 7 stone about 5-6 years ago though and managed to get below him, but I was only there for about a year before it all went a t*ts up and I re-gained the weight!

    NO! He is almost a foot taller then me, and 60lbs heavier. He could lose some weight too, but he will never be a scrawny type guy. Lots of muscle.

    Thankfully DH is 95 lbs heavier than I am. He's 6'3" and 245lbs (lifts weights). Sadly, this wasn't always the case. A little more than 2 1/2 years ago I weighed the same as he did. :embarassed: Never going back there!

    Yes and even if I get to goal weight I know that I will likely weigh more than him. I have a larger frame and Gain muscle really easily. He is 5 in. taller than me but has a small-medium frame and struggles to gain any weight at all.

    Yeah :embarassed:

    Sadly like many young men his age he is naturally thin and has a hard time gaining any weight.

    I will never weigh less than him even if i reach my goal :grumble:

    Even at goal we'll be within 5 pounds of each other. Genetically he's just tall and slim - 6 foot, 159.

    I finally passed him (in the right direction) a couple of months ago. I now weigh about 10 lbs less than him. This is a really motivating thing for me because he is a 6'2" beanpole, and I finally weigh less than him for the first time. It makes me feel so much better about myself. I like standing next to him and not feeling huge, its a self esteem builder. But, man it took a lot of work to get here.

    When we were at our heaviest, we both weighed about the same; but his weight often fluctuated by 5 lbs or so and sometimes I weighed more than he did, which was very hard for me to accept. Now that we've both lost a significant amount of weight, I am about 20 lbs lighter than him and I plan on keeping it that way!!

    Nope, never have, I think this is the reason I pick the big guys. He's 6' tall and I'm 5' short. :drinker:

    Sure do, and always have. When we first started dating 5 years ago he was what my goal weight is now (145 lbs.) He's bulked up to about 170 since then but I still outweigh him by about 4 pounds. Let's just forget about the fact that he's 6'1" and i'm 5'5"...

    S'okay though. I always say, "I don't date 'em if I can't benchpress 'em"

    I did when we first met - but he was six feet tall and weighed 120 pounds, soaking wet. I fattened him up with milkshakes and now I weigh about 50 pounds less than he does.

    Unfortunately yes, but only just. We are both in need of losing some kg's (sorry we work in KG, i have no idea on pounds/stones etc). I would love to be smaller than him and in a perfect world I would be.... i'll add this to another one of my goals! LOL

    Yeah I do.
    He's 6'1" 145 and naturally slim.
    I'm about 5'7" and 160.
    Gosh do his hip bones hurt, I haven't been a slim guy since I was like 30 pounds lighter...

    Yes I weigh more than my S/O I am trying to lose/maintain my weight while he is trying to gain weight. His metabolism is through the roof and he himself doesn’t work out like do and right now I work out 5-7 days a week and I feel amazing. Mean while I don't know how good he can feel with no exercise that and he can put everything into his mouth and not gain an ounce.

    Yes! He's a health FREAK! Always, working out, running 3 miles, and eating like a horse but won't TOUCH nor does he crave anything unhealthy!....ugh...I hate him. :blushing: No...no... I don't.:heart:

    Yes :( He is taller than me, active and in the military so he is in shape. Hopefully I will get close to his weight tho :)

    Yep - there was about 10 minutes in 2005 where we weighed the same but that passed quickly. He is shorter than me by a few inches, though.

    No, FINALLY!

    I have been and I was so embarrased by it when he found out. He's about 5inches taller than me and a man, it just felt wrong. He gained a little weight too so that helped my cause, but he's starting to get more active again so now I have to work faster on increasing the gap some more. :-)

    Yes!! My guy is naturally thin....he has great abs and I weigh almost 100 lbs more than him. EEK! He tells me I dont have to work out and I'm beautiful just the way I am. Which is great so once I lose this weight I know he'll love me no matter how much I weigh :) I'm so lucky.
