    Have never weighed more but I think we were pretty close when we first started dating. Maybe 12lbs apart then - but I've lost a few and he's gained a few in muscle - so we're now about 22lbs apart

    No S.O. for me, but I'm joined on my weight-loss mission by my boss at work, who's taller than me by a long way and has a stocky build.

    He gets excited and likes to tell me his current weight, as he's happy to have lost. I keep my trap shut as I weigh about a stone more than he does at any given time and just don't want all the comments - you know: "But you can't weigh that much! I'm so much taller than you!" etc...

    It's just so embarrassing. I don't mind telling him if I've lost 2lbs, but I won't give him any current figures. I just evade the question - he must have noticed. I'm probably doing more harm than good; I'm sure that by being evasive, it's only drawing attention to it and he's now thinking "My god, she must be a real salad dodger!"

    I do, by about 10kg. But he is terribly underweight due to a medical disorder and also constantly forgets to eat, so it's OK - I have no desire to be that skinny.

    I am 5'2" and weigh 180 pounds, but my husband is 5'10" and weighs 141 pounds. This doesn't seem to bother him, but bugs the snivers out of me. My goal is to see 130, but I don't want to go below 10% body fat, (which he is and it has causes him medical problems).

    Yes, and I probably always will be... he is both smaller than me in height and is a lot smaller frame wise as well. Realistically, I could possibly weigh the same as him (a good year down the line) if I really stuck to my healthy eating past my initial target, but I haven't yet decided whether i'm going to go that far yet!

    not anymore - but I was the heavier one for a few years!
    Now we're both losing weight, at pretty much the same rate - he's constantly 5kg heavier tho we've both lost 12kg each since early December.
    So no slacking off for me! can't let him pass me haha.

    Not only am I heavier then him by about 150 pounds I'm also 2 inches taller! He is naturally a thin person with a high metabolism! Only once have I seen him at 155 lbs but that was after being flat on his back for 21 days in the hospital(broken leg, 5 surgeries later). Took him less then a month to be back down to about 132 pounds. He was a 27 inch waist when we met he wears a 32 now!

    Nope he is about 50 lbs heavier than I am. When I am at my goal weight of 130-135 it will be more. He wants to get down to 200. He is 6"4...I am 5"5. We have decided that I can wear 6" heels and still not be as tall as him. His 14 year old daughter is taller than me.
