[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP, I'm sorry.  But I think you're fudging things a bit. You are not "a few pounds" over your weight. 40 pounds is a LOT of weight.  And at 150 pounds, you were not thin.  I know that because I'm 5'10'', and 150 is my upper range weight.  I'm not fat per se at 150 pounds, but not thin either, and if I kept up my gym routine, I'd never get beyond 145.  What I'm saying is that you have a weight problem.  You really do.  Whether this is the reason your DH is turned off or not, we'll never know, but your weight is an issue.  It's up to you whether to take care of that or not, but your weight is not normal.[/quote]

I am not OP, but people have different body types.  I am 5'11 and would have to lose a LOT of muscle (on purpose, which would be stupid) to get down to 150.  I put on muscle easily.

Weight is meaningless without a body fat percentage.  I posted above - at 205, I was 26% body fat. My ideal would be no lower than 190.  I'd have to stop exercising entirely and severely limit calories to drop enough muscle to get down to 150.   Anyone who is educated on exercise and body composition knows that you can't really tell if someone is "overweight" based on a number on the scale.

If at 5'10 you are 150 and not "thin" then you probably could do some work to improve your fitness and add some muscle.  I wouldn't trade my body for yours, ever, even though given my numbers, you'd probably describe me as obese.[/quote]

Yep. I am 5'5 and 140 and 22% body fat.  I can't imagine that 150 and 5'5 would be "normal weight" and not thin...[/quote]

My weightlifting partner is 5'3, size 2-4 and 140 lbs.  She's super cut and everyone watches when she does pull ups with a 35 lb weight attached to a belt.

I'll go tell her that she is obese.  I am really strong, too, but not quite as ripped as she is.  The thought that I should weigh only 5 lbs more than her, when I am 8 inches taller, is hilarious. [/quote]
