I now weigh less than my husband!

I have always weighed more than him, even when we were first married!  I was a svelte 160 and he was an athletic 155.  I'm at 187 these days and he's more than me. 

At one point, I was 10 pounds less than him, but he's decided to take off some weight, and is closing the gap.  He's letting me revel the achievement by not catching up too fast!  Smart DH!

That's great. And he is smart for letting you have your moment.

Woo Hoo! 

I married a "big" man....he is 6'4 and fluctuates between 255-275 (very low body fat!) 

I think that's why he always thought I was "small"....even at my heaviest (220) he would pick me up and cart me around all the time. 

Of course now when he picks me up he can BREATHE too!

Congratulatations!!!  Great NSV!!

Congratulations, I hear you.  I'm finally at a lower weight than my dh.  First time in years, and... I don't think he'll be able to catch up.  He did lose 20 pounds during this journey due to the banning of junk food.

When I had my first WLS I was shocked to find out I weighed as much as my boyfriend, 240lbs.  Thank God I haven't weighed that much since then.

I've never weighed as much as my DH.  Of course he has 15 inches of height on me.  I'm looking forward to weighing about 1/2 of what he does.  If I keep losing and he doesn't, I should come close to making it.  He weighs about 250 so at goal of 125, I'll be there.

My DH is 2 inches shorter than me!  With all the extra muscle men have, I should never weigh more than him again ... Keeping my fingers crossed.
