Any women weigh more than their man?

Right now I weigh a little less but I did weigh more. It really bothers me because I think me being so heavy makes me look alot older than him (he is a few months older). We took our 4 year old to a play group recently and someone asked me if I was his grandmother!

Me!! and i always hated it! My husband is 6ft 1 and "big"..but not really considered fat..he has a lot of muscle and a little bit of a belly, but other than that, i dont see him as being fat, he's more stocky... When I was pregnant i hated it when he would go to my appts with me because i didnt want him to know my weight..normally they kept it a secret..then at my 6 week check up, my doctor blurted out, "you're at 305 lbs, almost as much as you were right before u had your baby!"..and i thought i was going to just fall over and die because my husband was right there!!!!! ..but he really doesnt care, he says he would love me even if i weighed 800 lbs!....Now we are around the same weight (and he's strong enough that he can still pick me up, lol!)..i love his muscles!!!!!
 
haha! I 5'2 161lbs my BF is 5'11 140lbs. He is 4% bodyfat I'm like 30%. He eats fast food every day. He is just one of those naturally thin people. You can see the results of him lifting weights right after he is done working out because he has no fat covering his muscles. They just pop right out.

It doesn't bother me though. I would be more bothered by an insecure, always battling with their weight, kind of person. And he tells me all the time "When I started dating you, you didn't have a flat stomach and firm butt, I'm not looking for that, but if you want to be healthier I'm not going to hold you back." He's a good guy :)
 
Yip...by about 7 lbs. When he found me on the computer he asked what I was doing and I explained reading this thread...he asked were there any threads about lovely girlfriends with nice smiles....AWWWWWW :p
 
I DEFINTELY know where you all are coming from! I weigh almost 30lbs more than my fiancé and I HATE it. He is 5'11" and weighs 150lbs and I am 5'9" and weigh 178. He is svelte snd muscular with just about no body fat and I am just so puffy! What's worse is that I weighed 190 a few weeks ago! When we met 2 years ago I was 145 and could wear his size 32 jeans. We are getting married in October and I really want to be small enough for him to be able to pick me up comfortably and carry me over the threshold! My goal is 130. I am tall so sometimes I just feel like a moose. I love his lithe body and want to feel sexy next to him..which is a great motivating factor, but it really can be depressing. He is just so supportive and flattering and doesn't really encourage my dieting becasue he says he likes me this way..but he liked me when we met too and I know I was more attractive then. He can eat anything and is very physicslly active so he naturally has a great body. What's more...I'm a California girl and now I'm in the UK with him (he's English) so I have to contend with all the drinking, starches and less then active lifestyle. That's what caused me to balloon from 145-190. I have to really work hard not to succumb to all that.

When my husband and I started dating, he was 150 lbs, (5'9") and I just recently weighed 149 lbs.... so I caught up to him!! He was very slender though and muscular, and I weighed probably 140 at that time and being 5'1", I looked fat next to him.... Not feeling cute at all......He however, GAINED 50 lbs.... and is working to lose 30, his goal weight of 170!! We're doing it together so I'm happy about that :)
 
That is one of my "mini-goals" To weigh less than my husband. He's put weight on since we met. Right now I'm only about 10 pounds more than him. I'm hoping to pass him by the end of May.
 
At my heaviest I was probably 35-40 pounds heavier than DH. Now I am about 25-30 pounds light - I went down and he crept up a bit.
 
Oh heck yeah!! My husband is tall and very slim. I've often said that he and I look like the number 10 when we walk around.

That comparison is just TOO funny! I think that descibes me and BF totally....except...he a lot taller than me so what does that make us? A capital "I" and a lower case "o"... Io ???:confused:

I am not heavier than mine although almost, there is only 3-5 kg weight difference between us, but scarily enough almost 20 cms!!!! We also look Io!!
But the worst things is, when we met I used to lie on him and he would be broader than me, all of me fitted into him nicely and I called him my "island". Well now when we do that first of all he gets out of breath pretty quickly with this huge me lying on tiny him and secondly I have grown so big that I fall of his chest on both sides... :(!!
I have told him when I am skinny we will have to marry because that will be the time he can carry me over the threshold but he looked at me and replied: I am gonna break my back!! (Oh cheers for the support buddy!!!)
He still thinks I am pretty, which is nice, but I know he somehow feels cheated because he started going out with me when I was at my minimal weight (just after quitting dance). But he seldomly complains!

Whenever I first met my husband I was a lot heavier than him but through a combination of him gaining a few lbs and me losing I am now about 25 lbs lighter than he is. Although he has just recently begun to lose a couple lbs and I think he is going to pass me up!
 
When i first met my husband 7 years ago he was 300 pounds and 5'10 and I was 5'7 and 200.. Now he is 222 after i nagged him about diabetes and I am 242 pounds and diabetic.. Fate is a cruel thing. I think i can pick him up now and throw him around.. He was a lovely 44 and now a 36 and i think i can fit his old pants.. He is so supportive in my quest to get him to lose another 40 pounds and my quest to lose 102 pounds..

Don't worry--you can do it, and diabetes is very managable! You can do it!!
 
I think I'm just about the same weight as my hubby now.. I still look bigger though but am shorter (Thank goodness!)... He's 6'1 and I'm 5'9..
 
DAMN..Pete just got back from tour and he has lost 5lbs. I need to fatten him back up...I'm catching up though....I have lost almost 20 lbs....26 more to go aqnd we'll be equals....
 
I do...

Or the same? Or just barely a few pounds less?

Does it bother you? Anyone feel bad that they're not some petite thing?

When I first met my husband I wasn't exactly petite but i wasn't as big as I am now. I was about 150 lbs but over the 8 years that we have been together and having our son I have managed to go from that to where I am now at 261. My hubby weighs about 210 but that is cause he has to maintain his weight cause the army is very strict about that kind of stuff. Other then when I first met my hubby I have always been heavier then he has and yes it does bother me sometimes that I am so much bigger then he is specially when it comes to the bedroom stuff.. sorry if too much info there.. :eek: My hubby always tells me he loves the way i look and stuff but i would much rather be able to love the way I look and also have him love the way i look so we are both happy about it you know? :eek: well i just realized what time it was so i had better get to :sleeping: cause my son will be up in about 6 hours. hope this helps if not sorry.. i know sometimes when you feel bad it helps to know that others have also gone through it too.
 
Me Too....

When I met my husband I was about 150 lbs and he was 160. I am 5'4" and he is 5'7". Fast forward to 2005 when my daughter was born, me: 205, hubby : 160. He has been 160 since he was 18 ( he is 38 now). It was so embarrassing for me when we had to go somewhere. My parents used to tell me jokingly :" are you feeding this man or you are keeping all the food to yourself?" it wasn't always funny.
Now at 167.5 I am getting closer and I know it is as important to him as it is to myself. Hopefully by the end of summer, he will be the "heavy one" in the family. :jump:
