s/o Your weight (mini poll)

Based on some comments in CG's post below: Does your husband know how much you weigh? Would it bother you if he did?

Re: s/o Your weight (mini poll)
He knows... It doesn't bother me that he knows, it bothers me that I outweigh him by 20 lbs.
He's very supportive and just wants me to be happy, whatever my weight.?

DH knows, in a vague sort of way. He tells me how much he weighs, then I tell him I'm lower or ::gasp:: higher than him. He never knows the number unless he's hovering around when I weigh myself or I'm particularly happy about my weight loss.
I put my foot in my mouth when he was showing me his Europe pictures, though. After a few I said, "Dude. You have man boobs." I totally said it without thinking and felt horrible afterwards. Especially since he looked like he might cry.
Unable to even.

Hells no! That is persoanl lady business. He would have to wait in the lobby until after I was weighed at the OB and i made it clear to them that the number was personal. He knew I gained 53 and he know I've lost close to 70.
I'm sure he could guess within 7-10 lbs though. I'm fluffy so there's more margin for error.
I bought a pair of jeans once and he said, "Why are you buying that size? Aren't you insert size about 4 below actual size?" Hahahaha, uhm, no.

Not really. I have like a maximum tollerable weight. He knows what that is, and when I'm over it. He doesn't know by how much or anything. So I guess he knows if I'm over or under XXX weight, but not exactly how much. Now, if I was under XXX weight by like 20 pounds, I would be bragging about it, so he would know that.
TTC #2 for a million years: SA normal, CD 23 bloodwork shows nothing amiss, ovulation detected. Next step: ? maybe CD3 bloodwork to check eggs? All out of pocket, so limited IF tests/treatments.
Oh HELLS no. I don't think he even has a clue what range I am in. He might know my range of size for pants or tops, but that's about it. He likes me curvy.
Go YOU Michele! Don't be too hard on yourself, you did have a baby only three months ago.
Ditto. I am PARANOID he's going to find out and will stop at nothing to hide it from him. His sister told him in passing that she weighed 180 pounds while pregnant and I saw the look of disgust on his face. I would kill to make sure that he never finds out that I weighed MORE than that while pregnant. I'm pretty sure he thinks I weigh somewhere around 130 nomally. Ha! I wish:).
I've never hidden my weight from anyone. I figure no matter what the number, they can see my body, right? Does the number make a difference? DH sees me naked all the time, even at my heaviest, so the number isn't going to change any perception that he has.
Besides, it's funny. I usually weigh a lot more than people think. Even the doc guessed wrong - it makes me proud of my strength training, that I have more muscle weight than people realize. [that's what I tell myself, anyway
]
i hit an all time high of 189 about a year and a half before my wedding, it was actually a picture of me, davesgirl, ihhm in a limo at the wedding show...my face looked like a basketball and i was done. it has led me down a path of a pretty healthy life style and i can live again, i'm not embarrassed to see people from my past (when i was a size 2). not to mention the confidence it brings and along with that, opportunites come flying at you.
everyone carries their weight differently so someone at 180 might look fabulous based on their body comp. at 150 i'm wearing a sz 6. people look very surprised when they find out i weigh THAT much.
um, 4 carats??? i'd be RUNNING to the treadmill
I'd like to quote the girls who said "HELLS no!" because I do usually hide the actual number. But there have been 2 times, in the last year, that he had to know my weight (helicopter ride in HI, and I forget the other). I really don't talk about my actual number with anyone.
When I was on WW, I'd talk about it with other WWers. After a foot surgery in Feb, having to give up my normal work-outs, taking infertility drugs, and having cravings from them ... I'm about 30 lbs higher than I should be. I hate that I'm TTC at this weight, and I hide myself most of the time. I don't have time to wait and work on my weight before pregnancy, though, so I'll be pushing big time when it comes time to lose baby (and pre-baby) weight.
You go, Michele! :-)

Ha, I was thinking this, too. Great motivation!
He could guess, if he wanted to try. I don't think he cares. Although, he has been rather randy lately (since I started fitting in to my pre-preggers jeans).
When I was pregnant, one of his favorite parts of the appointment was scoping out how much weight I had gained. I never surpassed him, but I came within 10 lbs of him by the end. Scary! My DH is a tall, built dude. He isn't slight, even when he is at his best weight.
Before that, he only knew how much I weighed when I was at my thinnest.
The only Easter Bunny I can get behind.
