I had surgery 1 week ago and I have to give my hubby some points! He's been making sure not to eat things in front of me if he even thinks I'd want it! he even tries my last couple bites of whatever watery soup I make for the day (or couple days) he's being a trooper for sure! My goal is to be 'smaller' than him. Even when we first met I was 180 he was 175...we're both 5'10. For the last 7 years I've been around 240-254 and he's stayed 185-200. My goal...my first BIG goal is to hit 199.9 by Sept 3rd. My daughters first day of school! I'm sitting at 223 today.

You got this! Congratulations on your success so far!

You can do this! My husband and I have been married for 32 years and thanks to the sleeve I am now smaller than him for the first time, I was sleeved 1 year ago and I have lost 125 lbs, it's the greatest feeling in the world when he hugs me now and his arms wrap all the way around me and then some. Good luck on your journey!

Woo-hoo! I cant wait till you hit that goal! That was one of my goals too and made it, now I have made my other goal to be smaller than my son! He was not too happy but he is still a growing boy and supposed to weigh more than his momma! So happy for you! Keep us posted!

It will happen for you, I am certain!!! It is wonderful to feel "small" next to your husband. It was a goal for me as well.

No lie, the very first night I got home from surgery, my husband baked chocolate chip cookies! He's never done that before and I almost killed him! You gotta good man there haha!

I just passed my husband this week. He said, great you weigh less than me now. YIPPEEE went through my mind. I SHOULD weigh less than you. you are 6' with muscles.

With such a supportive husband and your positive determination, you'll make goal in no time! Good luck with your journey and a big high five," way to go", to that wonderful husband!

Supportive spouses are a wonderful gift for sure! Tell him we said kudos and to keep it up, and he will reap the benefits in many ways!

My hubby has been very supportive too. And I mow weigh less than him for the 1st time in about 15 years. It feels great.
