The "Skinny" One

I have always weighed more than my husband. It has been frustrating. He only eats what I make him (he won't even boil water) so when I gained he gained, and when I lose he loses. He has always been really supportive of my weight loss without doing a damn thing himself. Well as of today, I offically weigh less than him. Now I am the "skinny one" in the relationship, and he is offically motivated. Two wins at once.

    I remember that feeling the first time I weighed less than my husband. Great feeling. Good for you!

    That's fantastic! My husband is at my goal weight (same height) and will lose weight if he's not careful. I don't expect to ever have this feeling, but it would be nice.

    Way to go!! A little competition between spouses never hurt anyone. :smiley: Keep it going!

    I hope to weigh less than my boyfriend at some point. He is one of those naturally very thin people. So even though he is about 7 inches taller than me, I weigh almost 20 pounds more. It was kind of depressing when I found out his weight!! Although, I know he'd love to weigh more. (Why can't I just give him some of mine??)

    Oh, I love that! My husband and I were around the same weight for about 2 years (he's about 4.5" taller than me, so yeah). Now I'm about 15 lbs less than him and would like to lengthen the gap to another 10 or so! So nice :)

    Congrats! I My first GW is to be around what my husband weighs (about 145lb), as he's tall and skinny. I started at about 172lb, currently around 159, so I'm getting close.

    You go, Girl!

    I weigh less than my husband now, but I feel weird. Everyone keeps telling me how skinny I'm getting, but my current weight is his GOAL weight.

    I've always weighed more than my husband also. One of my goals is to weigh less. My husband weighs 180 lbs and when I get to 179 I will be ecstatic! Lol
