what more can I say than the guys at my bf's work have named him the insinkerator! he eats anything and everything and so fast too! But just recently I think his metabolism has slowed down (he's turning 36 next month...) and he has started to put on weight. He is still very muscley and a V-shape, but his 6 pack is now a four pack.. it's getting him more than it gets me! I still think hes Grrrr... lol. But he is really good about me eating healthily.. it's just we both have the same weaknesses - chocolate & KFC! so if one gives in on that front, the other isn't really too hard to persuade. But he does like his veges, even if they are smothered in tomato sauce :), I suppose I just need to remind myself I don't need to "keep up"..but it's hard after years with my ex where he would scream at me for not finishing a meal or eating "my half" of something.

My hubby cracks me up with his eating and his desire to lose weight. He is a landscaper.. so he is walking and lifting all day along. Not to mention working in the sun and sweating. What he doesn't take into account is that when he comes home after doing all that work he can't eat everything in sight. He also doesn't take into account that his body gets used to all the walking and lifting and he has to challenge his body to do something else.

My favorite is when he goes to the gym in the morning and on the way home from the gym he stops and gets himself 2 sausage mcmuffins with egg and hashbrowns. He is 5'9" and 280lbs.. but he carries it all in his stomach. He is build like a brick poop house everywhere else.. if he would just deliver his baby already he would be one bad mama jamma. <grin>

But my point being.. even with all the crap he eats.. his weight is stable.. he would just need to make some food adjustments and he would lose weight like crazy.

Okay that is my two cents.

My boyfriend is about 5'11 and he weights about 170-175...and he is like a bottomless pit! When we go out to dinner and I can't eat all of mine...he will eat his and mine and still be hungry! He'll eat like 5 beef n cheddars from Arby's, large fries, and he's ready for ice cream. When he eats all of this food he maintains his weight. If he eats less one day he loses weight...I have no idea what the deal is! He can eat, and eat, and eat and still be hungry! The things that gets me is that he doesn't gain weight. He's trying to...and has problems. I'm over here trying to LOSE weight!!!

My husband is the same way. He can eat a lot more than I can and stay in good shape. He's been very supportive of my weight loss effort though, which helps. He still eats more than I do but we're eating the same things, which is nice for me :).

My BF Mark is about 5'10-5'11 and weight about 150-160 if that! :dizzy:

He eats about 1 or 2 meals a day ( Meals being - Half of Med Pizza, or some value meal from a restaurant ) He never cooks at home. :hungry:

He snacks on Candy Bars(PayDay's ) and 20oz's bottles of Mt Dew Code Red :devil:

I haven't seen him drink any plain water in Months! :?: :shrug:

He's tall and thin all the way around no belly has 4 pack...

He's good about not eating much junk when he's around me.....

I do freak out because I am bigger than him... :(

I know he's self consious about his body too because since I have known him he always wears layers of clothes - he said he has been doing that since he was a teen...tries to gain weight but can't......I think he can if he takes the time to eat healthier and gets off his butt :dance:

Hoping one day I weight less than he does :goodluck: :tread:
