I finally weigh less than my Husband!

Sometime in 2010 when my Husband and I began dating, we were visiting a friend and noticed they owned a scale. Because we didn't have one at home, we thought it'd be interesting to check our weights. By some random chance, we both weighed exactly 137.5 pounds. We even had our friend check their weight to make sure it wasn't just stuck (it wasn't). I'm 5'4, he's 5'10, so I had felt a little embarrassed. I said I've been trying to lose weight for years, he said he'd been trying to gain weight for years, we laughed about it and moved on.

Fast forward 10 years, I had slowly gained more weight until I hit 150 (He happily hit 156). I unsuccessfully tried every diet/exercise plan out there, gaining and losing the same 10 pounds, never once going below 140. I always said jokingly to my Husband "When I weigh 137.4, I'll know the weight loss is finally working!". After my birthday in February, I decided I would just try being consistent, not perfect. This morning I weighed in at 137.4! I have a long way to go, but I finally feel like it could really happen for me.
