"i was 2 stone heavier.the worst thing is he is nearly a foot taller too and not that light himself (bmi approx 26). i am now possibly a lb or two lighter"


ha, just felt i had to update.... i am now over 3 stone lighter than my other half. his "choccy" belly is now much larger than mine. slim


Congrats on the weight loss so far and for being lighter then your hubby but what do you mean by 2 stone? I have never heard of that expression before sorry.
 
hi, i guess its a weight the brits use. one stone = 14 pounds and thanks. slim
 
My gf weighs between 140 and 150 standing at about 5'3". She has fairly muscular legs from being a dancer for about 18 years or so now. (drool... :D)

I am a full foot taller than her, and weigh 407 now. In the time we have been together I have weighed anywhere from 330 to 450. Thanks to my build, I dont think she will ever have to worry about weighing more than me. My Fat Free Mass is over 240 pounds right now... and my goal weight is about 275.

I thought it was interesting when someone said awhile back that they couldnt wait to weigh low enough that their boyfriend would be able to pick them up and toss them around easily. Personally, I always thought it was my responsibility to be strong enough no matter what my gf weighed (within reason of course, lol).

Ive noticed that my changes are catching her interest quite a bit, and sort of inspiring her, though she isnt making any changes yet. But i think that once i get back into my old working weights, and start to improve cardiovascularly, that as I start to leave her in the dust actively, she might start getting her butt moving to keep up. Weight has never mattered much to me, as long as she is able to be active and enjoy life physically. Might sound unbelievable, but even at 407 pounds I am able to get out and move around quite a bit. And when it gets to the point where she cant keep up with me, i think things will get very interesting for the both of us. :-D
 
Well I've always been heavier than my husband! when we met, I was at least 60lbs heavier than he now I am about 150lbs heavier than him! he still loves me the same, this is why I married him! We have been together since I was 18, I am now 25! He is so slim! LUCKY!!!!!! he can eat anything he wants and it has no effect on him, though it is catching up a tiny bit now that he's getting older! Hehehe.
It does bother me that I weigh more than him, it bothers me a lot! *Tears* I wish that he would be able to lift me up and spin me around or when we have sex all the diffrent positions I would be able to do, lol, sorry if that was to much info!! It's how I feel. I have very low self esteem now and have become someone who I seriously Hate! It affects my husband also, this makes me sad!
This past week has been much better for me, now that I have started exercising and eating right :) I feel better and boy does he notice!! =)

I am heavier than my boyfriend. He weights 160-180 somewhere in there, and well I weigh 209 now :] Use to be 228.. so thats a big difference.

The thing though is, he use to be overweight and so did his mom. So it made him more accepting of dating someone overweight, because he doesn't look at just that.
 
In February we each weighed for the first time in ages. I was about 5 pounds heavier than he was. It was a real eye opener. Now, we are both dieting. I have made a bit more progress than he has and I am now about 8 pounds below him. But yes, it still bothers me that we are that close.
 
My bf is 5'11" and weighs like 130. I am 5' 4 3/4" and weigh 215.....It sucks, I hate it, and I am trying to do something about it. But at the same time, I don't have any support in the house. My bf buys junk and then tells me fatty doesn't need it. Then eats it in front of me. I possibly think I need a new boyfriend.

But that is why I have you guys. Because I can get support here.
 
my boyfriend and I are both 5'8"/5'9" and he says he weighs 270lbs, I weigh 288.6 at the moment =( I used to weigh 250lbs when I first met him and was skinnier then him! My main mini goal is to get back down to 250lbs
 
My boyfriend is 5'9 and weighs 185 lbs. I'm 5'6 and weight 357 lbs. lol I can actually pick him up, literally lift him off the ground.

My boyfriend and I got together at my highest weight (385 lbs) so no, it doesn't bother me that my boyfriend is smaller than me. By the time I was 8 I believe I weighted over 200 pounds. Most of my life everyone I knew have always been smaller than me. I knew ONE girl when I was in Jr High that was bigger than me. But yeah, when you've been bigger than everyone around you all your life you don't really think about it that much - at least I never did.

And I guess that's one of the reasons why I never compared myself to other girls either. Most girls I know seem to be kind of catty, or at least very competitive with other girls. I don't really get that. I've never uttered the words "Do you think she's prettier than me?" lol.
 
When my husband and I first met he was only 115. And he told me he didn't need to eat everyday, which was very bad.
I think I was about 125 at the time. I'm about 2 - 3 inches taller than him. I have always been more than him. When we were both at our largest I was 180 and he was 45. Now we stopped eating fast food ad he dropped 10lbs. I make sure he eats when he is home but it's like the fat does not stick to him. He Eats like a man twice his size.
I told him he is not allowed to lose any more because I want to get the same size as him.
 
yes..... I am.... and it does bother me sometimes. He doesn't mind but I do.... when it does botehr me, it bothers me a lot. I guess I have this crazy idea that no woman should weigh more than her boyfriend/husband. My hubby is very supportive and loves me but when I put on a hoodie and it BARELY gets over my fat a$$ and it's literally a dress on him..... I just wanna cry. In fact, I do sometimes. He's 5'11" and about 170 lbs maybe a bit more.... I'm well.... HUGE. I had gotten down to 170 lbs and he was still a bit lighter at that time and definitely smaller but I was ok with it because I had worked so hard and looked and felt good. Fast forward to now.... had a baby 13 months ago and I'm a freakin mess. I have to talk myself into fixing my hair and make up daily. I just want to stay in bed and starve..... but I cant' do that so I'm trying to be proactive and eat regular small snack size meals and exercise. I really do think I have a thyroid problem but so far the bloodwork disagrees. Idiot doctor won't help me - she's convinced it's all in my head. Meh.... whole other story there. Anyway, so yes, I am heavier than my husband and very unhappy about it.

Cheers,

My bf weighs 130 and i weigh 180 i used to weigh 210 but im losing weight .:) He says he loves my body because i dont look what i weigh and he still can pick me up and stuff since im 5"3 and hes 5"9 but i still feel weird:/
 
Hi Anono

I am 5'1 and 179lb hubby is taller and heavier but needs to loose weight too! Actually he did loose a lot and that spurred me to try to he has put a lot of it back on but when he gets back into the right mind set will loose it again he seems to have better will power then me! I think when you are small you always feel it shows more! Know how you feel too about you're bf saying he loves you as you are it makes little difference if you don't love yourself as you are! For me i mainly want to shift the weight for health reasons now i am mid 40s and at my biggest this old frame can only hold out for so long before exploding!

Good luck Anono and know you are not alone! X
 
I'm 5'5 and I weigh 152 lbs. My fiance is probably 5'7 or 5'8 and weighs around 125. He's so scrawny. It runs in his family. I've lost a total of 20lbs so far and am on my way to my goal of 140 lbs. :)
 
My fella is 6"2 and weighs about 140lbs, i'm 5"5 and weigh 185lbs! He says he loves me but, eurgh, i feel disgusting.
 
Yes! he is 5"8 ans 109lb! like he doesnt look it at all he has like 5% body fat everything else is muscle. and im 5"8 and 157 pounds! i dont like laying on top of him cuz i feel like im crushing hime. but he loves when i do.
 
I def weigh more than my bf. But he likes chubby girls so he would rather have it that way. I don't think I will ever be considered skinny but I do want to be healthy. Right now my goal is 200lbs. I have not been that low in forever. Perhaps before I was even a teen. I would like to see where I stand and what I look like at 200lbs. I currently weigh 246 after today's readings. 46lbs do not sound like a lot but it has been a struggle for years to get this low and stay this low. I can easily shoot back up to over 250 and I strive for that not to happen.
