I have weighed more than my husband for over ten years. He is 6'3" and I am 5'6". So he has 9 inches on me! AND he's a man! He has weighed (give or take) about 176 since high school (he is 54 now.) When I realized I lost twenty pounds in the hospital a few months ago, I was ecstatic! I FINALLY weighed less than him! YAY!
But then he had to go and get sick this month, and he lost 20 pounds in 3 weeks.
So now he only weighs about 156, and even though I lost weight, he now still weighs less than me. WHAT THE HECK? Is this karma? I am NOT happy he lost weight due to sickness, please understand. And OMG, he's 6'3" and at that height 176 pounds is a skinny minny! Can you imagine 156?
But it's like no matter what, I am gonna be his fat wife. Even if I lose weight, something happens to keep his weight under mine. Selfish me, narcissistic me, conceited me...I'm sorry, but I don't want to weigh more than my husband, and I want him to be at a healthy weight!
Ok, so I'm whining. I don't think he looks any different, but he says his butt is so small, it hurts to sit! So in all earnestness, I want him to be heavier than me so that he can sit comfortably. (Did I talk you into believing that?)
