Message: Just to reassure you that you are not alone in this huni. My husband is 3 inches taller than I am and I think he looks overweight, indeed he's 14 stone and has a huge stomach which I keep on at him about losing. My concern is this, I tell him he needs to lose weight but at 5'7, I am 1 lb away from being 13 stone myself so I sense a bit of pot calling kettle black going on. I know I shouldn't get on at him, but I think it's because if he decides to lose weight, it'll be easier for me to. You know, with being able to cook healthily for the both of us. So don't beat him up, beat yourself up. It's us that need to change and maybe he hasn't said anything about your body - my husband hasn't said anything about mine, but maybe if we look at ourselves more, then they will look at us more too. And in return for us looking like supermodels, they'll want to lose some weight too!

Message:

when i met my DF i was heavier than him (and 5 inches shorter)

over the 4 years we were happy we put on weight till i had to face facts and started dieting December 07.

he joined me at Slimming World in may last year and lost over 1.5 stone!
i had way more to lose and i still am dieting, but i am finally lighter than him!!! by over half a stone now!

he never had a problem with me being heavier - i was the one sad that i was a fat whale!

i think i might have had an issue had he started wearing my clothes!!!

now he is the one with issues coz i keep pinching his clothes (tops to wear at the gym, hoodies, tracky bottoms - tho this must stop coz they are way to loose on me now!) pmsl

tho you said your partner is 6foot 5" and only 10.5 stone? that would make him underweight i would have thought?
