Does your significant other know your current weight?

My hubby knows, I'm very vocal about my weight (especially since I've been losing.)

Mine does! I don't tell anyone else, but I do tell my hubby. He's not an obsessive weigher like me (I'm on the scale just about every morning), but he's currently weighing/trying to lose weight too, so sometime he tells me his weight too!

Yes I text him everyday while he is at work and tell him. Lol. He weighs on Saturday and tells me his progress too. I probably wouldn't have mentioned my weight before as much, but am super proud of myself.

Yes. He's with me at every weigh in. It doesn't really bother me since I've been with him so long and he's been on this roller coaster ride of losing weight with me. It feels nice to see somebody more happier than you when he sees the number on the scale went down.

I'm single atm but my ex knows what I weigh. My longtime crush knows but I doubt he remembers. I didn't tell anyone what I weighed when the figure was 181 though...

No. He knows how much I have lost, but not my actual number on the scale.

My husband doesn't know how much I weigh, just how much I've lost. I'm too embarrassed for him to know my starting weight.

But....I did tell him I will be shouting from the rooftops at 199 so I don't care if he does the math then. I don't think he really cares about the number anyways but I would tell him if he asked for some reason.

my husband doesn't know. but at my highest weight, he guessed that i was 50lbs. less then I was. So be it ... He never asks and I don't tell. I prefer to "Diet Quiet". It is less pressure for me that way. I suppose if I asked him to guess today he'd say a number less than what he weighs which is 195,(He's put on a couple lbs. this winter) yey! Since I've always been heavier than him ,when i actually do get to or below his weight, and I think it will be soon, I will let him know it, TOO! It will be an extra incentive for me not to fall back. Good Luck to you all!

I'm in the same boat as you. Obviously he knows I am making the effort since I keep feeding him strange new things. I know he loves me no matter what I weigh, and I know that he wants me to healthy. It's a good system so far

Yes my husband knows how much I weigh. I put it on our calendar online that then goes to both of our phones, that way I can look back and see how I'm progressing. He also asks me or watches me weigh in occasionally and then asks how I'm doing. (he doesn't care what I weigh, but likes to see me excited when it goes down)

Yes, he knows. But I don't know how much he weighs! He's overweight and very self-conscious about it, but I don't care if he is. But he won't share his actual number.

My husband doesn't know. Nobody that I know IRL does. I don't mind sharing how much I've lost though.

I haven't specifically shared my weight with my husband but I'm sure he knows. Maybe the scale was still displaying it when he walked in the bathroom or I had 3FC or MyFitnessPal or FitBit sites up. It's not a secret I'm withholding from him it's just not an active part of the conversation.

I haven't really shared how much I've lost either I've just asked general questions like "Is it showing?" and "Do I look different" because I can't tell.

That said, he weighed while I was brushing my teeth last week and he was upset because he'd only lost 13 pounds over the course of a month or so. Granted, he still ate a bunch of junk but likes our healthier meals together and with the kids. I told him it takes me months to lose 13 pounds and he was genuinely shocked.

Yes, he knows. I tell him every week when I weigh in. He even knows my highest weight, even though we weren't together at that time.

I like to think he doesn't. It is the ONE secret I have in our relationship.

But I think he has a good idea. A couple years ago, he needed to turn in some paperwork for insurance. We were careful to have me fill out my info and put it in a sealed envelope for him to take to his HR person. It was all going well until the insurance agent called him one day to verify all the information, including my weight. The best laid plans...

Since then I got pregnant so I've put some weight on, and I'm about 10 lbs more than I was then. I know it doesn't matter, he sees me so it's not like I'm fooling anyone. But I just liked having that one little secret.
