Let's Get Ready to RUMBLE!!! Ding...ding...KO!

Zip-a-de-do-da-zip-a-de-ay......WHAT A WONDERFUL DAY!! 

I reached a goal of mine today....as embarrassing as it is......I finally weigh less than my husband!!!!!  Now, don't get too excited.....Tim is 6'6" (all muscle, ex-college football player, etc--a big guy.......works out like a crazy man...so, it's not like I weigh less than a "normal" sized guy), but, the reverse to that is that I did, just two months ago, outweigh him by 55 pounds....(eeeks!).

So, one of my wow moments on my "goal" page was to weigh less than him.....and, yesterday morning it happened.....ding, ding, ding.....in the red corner, wearing the red and black trunks is Tim, standing 6'6" & weighing in at 238 pounds of pure muscle....and, in the white corner, wearing Spanx and a push-up bra, Micheala, standing 5'8" & weighing 235 pounds and praying gravity will not get the best of her!  Woot Woot! Let's get ready to RUMBLE!!!!  ....and...it's a Knock Out!!!

So, it's a good day....now, next goal is ONEderland & then to 155 & I ACTUALLY DID THIS (well, Dr. Houston & Dr. Roux helped, but....)!!!

xo, Micheala.

Gratz Micheala! i knwo that is a goal of mine as well. I dont think he knows I weigh more then him, but I do and it always bothers me.

Good job!!!

THANKS!  My hubby had NO idea I weighed more than him until I finally told him I wanted to see a bariatric surgeon & he said, "Micheala, they are going to laugh you out of the office".  Of course, I had tried 10,000 diets before & even with Atkins, when I lost 87 pounds (and gained it all back with pregnancy #2) I would only say the last two numbers of my weight.  Being a guy...lol...when I would say I weighed "57", he just assumed 157 (nope!)....so, finally I walked him in the bathroom, stood on the scale & watched him turn three shades of white....he was shocked &, from that point forward, told me to have the surgery if that is what I wanted.  It was, however, so difficult to "come clean" and admit how far out of control my weight had gotten.  My son (youngest) was 1-1/2 years old & I should not have still weighed 293 pounds! 

It was a relief to tell him, though....and everyone else. I try to be really open w/my weight because I know what it was like to have everyone guess I weighed about 225 pounds at my heaviest and then know, inside, that I really weighed 70 pounds more than that. I felt like I was being dishonest, but I just couldn't bring myself to talk about the number....ug....so so so so glad all of that shame is gone!

Pretty soon you will be underweighing your hubby, too!! I love RNY!  xo, Micheala.

Congratz Micheala!  I remember the day when Beth made the same post!  Then I went and had RNY!  LOL!

Congrats, I know how happy you are, I bet Tim is just as happy for ya! Just don't take a deep breath...

Oooooh....ouch....you are a mean, mean, mean man! LOL!!!  Poor Beth! 

Thanks--Tim is really, really happy for me...he keeps picking me up (which I really hate, but he thinks it's cute)!!  xo, M. 

Micheala--that is one of my goals--to weigh less than my hubby!  But he's kinda little, so I have a ways to go! LOL

With 77 pounds lost you are on your way!! Wow--great job!!! 

I weighed more than mine too until just recently.  .......In addition to that, I once was in the room when my nephews were watching a local wrestling show  and I weighed more than the "combined total weight" of a wrestling TAG TEAM.   They were small for wrestlers, but OMG!  I left the room quitely and this is the first time that I have told this publicly!   What we go through  and never tell anyone because we are so embarrassed.  

I feel like I'm coming out of the closet.  The overweight closet. 

We do have our moments don't we?

Congratulations!  You are doing so good!   . 

Wow! 
That's awesome Micheala! Weighing less than my husband is a big goal of mine too. Unfortunately, when I went on my pre-op diet, my husband did liquids with me and has really stuck to a diet since my surgey. He has managed to lose 35 pounds - otherwise I would already weigh less than him - oh well, 24 more pounds to go and I'll have him beat!

Great job!
Stacey

I think that was one of my biggest goals was to weigh less than hubby and now I finally do!!! Congratulations keep up the good work!
