Same here. My first husband was a runt, my height. Now I like tall, dark and handsome.

My husband is 4 inches taller, 40lbs. heavier, and a lot more muscular. I think I am more overweight though. He carries his extra lbs. on his belly, mine are more spread out. He looks like a miniature version of the iron-man competitions, with an exagerrated tummy. I just look fat.

We weigh the same! For a couple months there, I actually weighed more than hubbie, and he's a good 6-7 inches taller than me. I'm looking forward to the day I weigh less than he does. Where I need to lose 90-100 pounds, he probably only needs to lose about 30-40.

And yes, sometimes it does bother me that I'm much more overweight than he is. Although, he makes me still feel sexy and beautiful, the sweetheart!

My DH is an inch taller than I, 50lbs heavier (about 210)-but still looks like a HUNK!!!! His B/F % is like 20% (don't know if that's good, bad or whatever)

I on the other hand-am 5'10, about 160, and have the worst UNTONED FLABBY body I have ever had in my life !!! My B/F is like 30%

weight wise, but HE is 6'3 and I am 5'5 Honestly, I feel like we are the "Big people" when we go somewhere. I also have one heavy child and when we go out on my more insecure days i always think other people are noticeing my child and thinking"with parents like that, no wonder he is overweight"...you did want honesty, right?? Anyway, I am soooo looking forward to losing this weight so i can feel "normal" again---we can do it!!

Dh is taller he's 5'10 and I'm 5'2. I am only a couple of pounds lighter than him. Like 10 or so pounds lighter. We are both on weight loss plans and I fear the day that he will be lighter than I am. Men tend to loose faster than women. You can already see the weight he's lost. He's lost between 15 to 20 pounds. I've lost 15 pounds and I don't see the difference in me.

DBF is 6' 4.5" and is currently around 265. I'm 5' 2.5" and 175. I think he looks hot whatever he weighs, he hates the way he looks. But then, he thinks I look hot no matter how heavy I am.

He got down from 280 to 245, but gained weight recently after a series of bereavements and stresses. He'll lose it again, when he's ready to commit to losing.

When I was married I was heavier than my XDH. He's 5" taller and was slim at that time. He isn't now, I've lost weight and am still losing, he's gained weight and is still gaining Ha! Serves him right for doing the dirty on me.

I'm glad to report that I finally weigh less than DH. And then he helped me out by quitting smoking and gaining about 8 lbs. Now he's lost it and is looking a bit runtish. I wish I could put some meat on him. He's about 5'9 and 155. He's just not into eating that much. Go figure.....

DH is 6'0" and weights about 215. He is pure muscle and he loses weight way too easily..I can't stand him!! There was a time (at my heaviest) that I weighed more than him. It felt awful and made me feel insecure as to why someone like him would want to be with someone like me. He always made/makes me feel beautiful though. I must admit that it feels much better to weigh less than him now.

[Diamondlv]

My SO is taller than me but about 30 pounds lighter than me..... he is 200 pounds and looks like he is 100 pounds wet, all muscle and has an very fast metabolism, he eats everything under the sun.... and took him a year to gain the 5 pounds he needed to get to 200 pounds.... I sure hope when we have kids that gene passes on to them.... and not my fat A** gene...lol...

I always liked men with about a 29-31" waist and nice buns - no big and bulky men for me so I have always been bigger no matter what - not taller, just more curvy
Nowadays I'm more curvy then I want to be though

[NCgrl]

I am twice the size of my husband.He is slightly overweight but is losing very fast.It makes me ill I know that men lose faster.What really irks me is the fact that in another 2 months he'll be thin again and I'll have 2 years to go

[bdjh99]

I weighed 240 lbs 5'6 when DH and I got married at age 19 (no kids). He weighed 125 and ws 6'1.

We were an odd looking couple, but so in love. Much more in love today....we just had our 6 year anniversary.

Brandi :~)

I am 5'7" and DH is 6'1". When I was 376 lbs, he was 240 lbs. We were both sickly and on lots of meds. In the first 2 years, I lost 80 lbs, and he stayed the same, then he asked me to show him how to do Atkins. He did it for 3 months and lost 25 lbs. Then increased his eating and maintained. By the end of the 3rd year I had lost 105 lbs and was 296 lbs and he was about 220 lbs. Then I started doing Greysheet, and lost more. By the end of the 4th year, I was 196 lbs, and he was 220 lbs. Then he started doing Greysheet where we both weigh & measure our portions without exception. Today, I am 177 lbs and he is 188 lbs. He is in the same size body he was in when we met, size 36 waist, and I am nearly in the same size clothes when I met him, size 14. And that was 31 years ago. He says he always loved me no matter my size, but there were times I had my doubts. I know today that when I felt fat, I was not and when I was fat, I was in denial that I was not. This disease of food addiction is between my ears not in my stomach.
