I was severely under weight when I met him, so I've put on about 15-20 pounds. But I only weighed about 100 when I met him. Im much healthier now.

I call it the 'Boyfriend 15' ... like college. Plain truth, men like to eat. Don't get me wrong, so do I. But, when I met my fiance, I was living in NYC and had sporadic work. I lived on one piece of pizza a day, Taste D Lite and tuna fish for dinner. Then, I found a boyfriend and a job in the same year ... and there came the pounds.

Usually I gain weight with other boyfriends, but with my FI I lost soooo much weight. His dad died at a very early age of heart disease, and so did 3 of his uncle's... so he's obsessive compulsive about eating healthy... tofu, soy, only whole weat, no sugar or sweets, etc. I can't cook, so I've adapted to his lifestyle... and a few months ago we became vegetarian... so all in all, I've lost like 20lbs since I met him!

Re: NWR but have you gained weight since you met FI???

I gained about 20 lbs over the course of 3 years. I lost almost all of it last year before our engagement party and now... it's BACK!!! ARRRRGHHH!!! BUT it WILL be gone again before the wedding. bow to the queen of yo-yo dieting!!!

We are also normally healthy lifestylers but we are also both stress eaters.... he hasn't gained much but lost muscle.... he bulking back up now though and is getting quite buff!!!

I gained about 10 or 15 pounds when we first started going out because we ate out a lot. Since we have been together for 4 years, I have lost 60 pounds since then but in the past few months I gained 20 back. Arg! I am hoping to have at least 40 gone by the wedding!

Re: NWR but have you gained weight since you met FI???

I've gained about 12 pounds. Thankfully 1/2 of those are in my boobs.. I've actually gone up a cup size since we've been together

Re: NWR but have you gained weight since you met FI???

I've pretty much stayed the same. I went up about 5-10lbs but have since lost it.

Re: NWR but have you gained weight since you met FI???

Nice topic... nice and depressing that is... J/K


I gained ALOT of weight since we first met. He went clothes shopping with me in the beginning and he remembers that I bought size 0 shorts! Now I am a size 6 or 8!

The only part that makes me ok with it is that I gained weight in some good places (bust and butt) so I look a little better. And he gained alot of weight too.

Re: NWR but have you gained weight since you met FI???

Halfway into the relationship we BOTH gained some weight. I gained about 12 lbs, he gained over 20!! And my 12 extra pounds looked WAY worse than his extra 20 (guys have all the luck!) Besides I couldn't afford to have gained those 12 in the first place!

But i cannot blame FH for my weight gain, I just love to eat! But in HIS case it IS my fault! He'd lost a lot of weight on Atkins before we met, but he went off it once we moved in together (I hate Atkins) and then he just packed it back on in no time

Getting engaged was the push I needed to shed what I gained and then some! Now I actually weight LESS than when I met FH I've lost about 20 pounds since February and hope to lose another 15 b/f the wedding!!

I can do it in 3 months, right?

Re: NWR but have you gained weight since you met FI???

I gained about 20lbs, and I started walking/jogging last week. Back to my active self again.

Re: NWR but have you gained weight since you met FI???

I gained about 15 lbs or so, but I have lost almost 25 now and want to lost about 5-10 more! It's a life long battle that will NEVER be won!

Re: NWR but have you gained weight since you met FI???

Not at all. I've actually lost about 15 pounds since we started dating.

Re: NWR but have you gained weight since you met FI???

I gained maybe 5 I think, but I also went on the pill shortly after we met, so I don't know how much I can attribute to that....I hope to shed the 5 by the wedding...He is a work out fanatic, so in general I would say he is a good influence. The only time we went out for ice cream was when I had my wisdom teeth pulled and couldn't eat hard food!

Re: NWR but have you gained weight since you met FI???

You sound like you're totally on the right track. You have *plenty* of time until wedding to do the weight watchers thing healthfully. Don't start smoking again!!!! You can do it!!! Update us on your successes. Thanks for bringing up the topic. Eating man-size portions didn't do good things for me when we moved in together. Took adjustment and getting realistic again. It's tough!

Re: NWR but have you gained weight since you met FI???

I actually lost about 15 pounds...I am the thinest I have ever been. But its not so much b/c of him its more b/c i discovered exercise and healthy eating....oh and I also dont go out and party like I used to...so much less alcohol!

Re: NWR but have you gained weight since you met FI???

A LOT!!!!! I AM IN DIET NOW
