my hubby is 5'11 and about 200lbs. hes been fit his whole life till he quit smoking. ( he had been smoking since he was 12) ever since than, he has gained a good chunk of weight ( in just a couple months) when he first met me i was thin and beautiful. than i got preggo, let it alllll go. and never bothered till now to do something about the 100+++ lbs i put on.
he once told me he didnt find me attractive because of my weight.. and he couldnt understand how that would hurt me.. well, now that his pants arent fitting and hes starting to notice his growing belly i asked him the other day, "what if i told you i didnt find you attractive because of your extra weight"... no reply.

CHECK MATE!!!!!!! MUHAHAHA

*ahem* sorry. well. little off topic but. that was satisfying to share.. :D

My husband is about a quarter inch shorter than me and has never been overweight. When we started dating, I could fit into his baggy pants. I didn't really get terribly overweight until marriage and pregnancy! He never really gained weight until he started driving truck, but now that we don't really have a lot of extra money, he's not eating like he should and has lost the weight he gained. :( Not unhappy that he lost the weight, just the way he's doing it...

Yes. 5' 11'' and at 275 lbs. He's completely addicted to fast food. I had a talk with him the other day (not a lecture). I told him that I get kind of worried that he eats so much BK and I told him that I will start cooking for him at home. Even if it's a big meaty burger made by me, it HAS to be better that BK or anywhere else.

And that was my rant. :spin:

When Angie and I met 14 years ago she was 5' 5" and weighed 125 pounds. She got up to 132 the first year and a half we were married. She wasn't used to eating the food I was and tried to accommodate me and the kids...well she finally put a stop to that!

I am 6' even and weighed about 165 when we met. FYI for all you gals that have skinny husbands....when the 40's come so do the pounds! I was always rail thin until I reached my 40's.

Angie got back down to her 125 in no time by getting back to her exercise routines and starting "making" us eat healthier.

I eventually got up to 201 which was not her fault but my own over eating of garbage!

Today she is at 123 and active in her yoga and walking and I am at 178 active walking but back-sliding a bit on my journey of better choices....say cheese!

I will say that Angie never once said anything to me about my weight....never. She just goes out and sets the example for our family.

According to BMI, my Boyfriend is on the very edge of being considered underweight. He's 5'10" (or 5'11", I can't remember), and weights between 125-130. He's all muscle though! Not an ounce of fat anywhere! He's very in shape (he can run like the wind dispite smoking).

I think he's just fine though :) He can eat whatever he wants, whenever he wants, and it doesn't effect him at all (I wish I was like that)
Someday I hope I'm as in shape as he is!! :D

He already weighs less than he did when we started dating when we were both 19...19 years ago. Holy crap! That is half our lives together...and I still like him an awful lot.

hehe, I have been with my bf 14 years this march, great to see a long term couple that is actually happy as well. :) I love bf and the spark is still TOTALLY there. I have been with him since I was 15.

Nope! My bf's 5'10 and 150 pounds, so lucky!

My boyfriend is considered overweight. He's about 5' 11" and weight about 215... BUT.... He is a body builder & that weight is ALL MUSCLE, NO FAT. So i'm not sure if that is "overweight". I mean, I know technically he is, but it's only because his body has so much muscle on it!
