Getting in Shape

Let's Face It Guys Lose Weight Way Faster!!

My fiance and I finally decided to get a personal trainer, totally worth it!! Our neighbors who are engaged too started slimming down and we asked them their secret, a private personal trainer!! So we started, my fiance is melting fat off of him faster than seems fair!! I have been getting totally frustrated that I have not been able to transform physically as fast as him!  He literally is already down a whole pants size and everyone can see how different he looks!  Truth, I some times want to secretlyadd fats into his meals.  Women just lose fat slower than men!! So frustrated!

  • It is frustrating!  My FI is trying to gain weight... if only I had that problem!
  • Unfortunately, that's just how it works most of the time.  It takes me forever to lose 5 lbs, and then there is my DH.  I encouraged him to get back in to running (he is a XC runner), and after a week of running consistently,  he proudly informed me he lost 7 lbs.  :-/  You just need to stop comparing yourself to him, and be proud of what you are accomplishing for yourself.

  • Men have different hormones, and generally more muscle mass, so it just makes sense that they lose faster.  That's just the way life works. 

    Please, don't sabotage his work by adding more fat to his food, that's just silly.

  • I know it's frustrating. My FI  used to be really skinny, but over the years has developed something of a beer belly. Whenever I challenge him to a weight loss competition, he loses like 10 pounds the first week. Ugh.. boys.

  • It is so frustrating.  My FI wants to gain too and he can eat whatever he wants while I'm snacking on weight watchers cakes, so not fair.

  • This is true! My fiance has lost about 60 lbs the past year without much work! He looks amazing but I'm struggling to lose 10 pounds right now. =/
  • Such is life... I can't even imagine how craptastic I'll feel when I'm trying to shed pregnancy weight and he's just sitting pretty!
