Unexpected mini-goal

  • Never in my adult life have I weighed less than my partner. Not my current partner, not my ex-husband, not any other boyfriends. I've always been built like an amazon (or, as I like to refer to myself, a glamazon). Nearly 6', and hovering around 285-300lbs.

    UNTIL THIS WEEK.

    I know it shouldn't really affect how I feel about my own femininity, but con-sarnit, finding out that I now weigh 4 lbs less than my SO (added to his own increased toning and now-bulgy biceps) makes me feel just a lil' more girly!!

    It's just one more incentive to keep losing (because so is he!).

    I so feel you on this one too! I finally weigh less than my husband too. Sure, he's 6.5 inches taller than me, but STILL FINALLY! I totally get that one!
  • Oooooo good unexpected goal, Congrats!!!
    While me and the ex hubby are not together anymore, I am so adding that to my goal list, LOL.
  • Thank you both!
    Melissa, mine is also taller (by 4.5"), but it STILL COUNTS, dagnabbit!
  • I can hardly wait to weigh less than my sweetheart! He is an inch taller than me but I still outweigh him by about 30-35 lbs. At least it isn't the 75 I used to outweigh him by!
