PETTY . . . you are doing great.

You really can't compare yourself (or your weight loss journey) to any one else, especially your husband. Men have a higher muscle mass than women and consequently (even if they weigh the same amount) the man would lose weight more quickly than the woman because he burns more calories supporting that muscle tissue.

Now . . . having said that . . . his being extra careful and extra active doesn't slow him down any either.

Hope you'll come and join one (or more) of our regular monthly chat threads. "Golden Girls" is probably the most active. "Getting Lighter" has been around the longest. "Active Folks" explores our activities and some of the more esoteric issues we come up against as we travel this bumpy road. All of them are great fun and terrifically supportive.

"Hey" back atcha, petty! Congrats on the great weigh-in. My DH doesn't need to lose weight, but he has just because I have been buying and serving so much more produce. We bought peaches from a local orchard last summer. Between the two of us, we ate 60 lbs of them!!
