    I am fatter then my husband now. He lost 138 and I just has a baby. Do I feel any different? Nope I am enjoying every minutes and almost every night.*wink* all kidding aside I wouldn't feel bad about it. I am sure he's happy with you.
    Did you eat back your 'exercise' calories?

    ...and it's 132 lbs, not 138, hun.

    Oops.

    I don't ever think I will be lighter than my husband. He is 5'7" and 130lbs. I am 5'7' and 170lbs (as of this mornings scale reading). I used to be 195lbs at one point. I wanted to be lighter than him at first (damn his racehorse metabolism), but now understanding that I am a woman who will always have curves (and him with none), no matter how much weight I lose, I will always weigh more than him. That's ok by me, as long as we look and feel great together, I'll be happy. But I am still trying to get down to my goal weight of 135lbs.... so my weight will end up being right around his.

    And I'm still at least 40 lbs heavier than you. You forgot to mention that.

    When I started on here I weighed 13 lbs more than my boyfriend, ugh. I'd borrow his t-shirts to sleep in sometimes and they'd be almost tight.

    I've lost 19 lbs on here so far and now I'm 6 lbs less than him, not much but it makes me feel SO much better. And those same t-shirts I used to borrow are starting to swim on me now : )

    This was me all my life! It wasn't so obvisous until after I had my twins in 2005. My ex (kid's dad) was 6'7" and 220 lbs, I was 5'6" and 245 lbs yuck! Now that I have lost all my weight, I am smaller than my boyfriend and I don't ever want that to change :)

    Yes, and he is four inches taller than I am and works out. And like others say, my "goal" is actually really close to his current weight. I'm just trying to be realistic.
