clicky poll - daddy weight gain

This is a poll from MH :)

[Poll]

If he did gain weight, why do you think that is?  Is it because he's eating along with you, or do you think there's a hormonal component?

Re: clicky poll - daddy weight gain

  • I was eating all kinds of things that I wasn't before (ice cream by the carton, etc) and he wanted to eat like that too! LOL
  • Tee-hee!  MH wanted me to ask this, since he has gained 7 pounds since I've been pregnant.  He's convinced it's not just that since I'm eating ice cream he is, too (I think that's what it is), but that it's something hormonal (in the air, I guess???).  I don't know....I was just curious if anyone else's husband had this problem!

  • I have to say yes, MH has gained some weight now that I'm PG.  We haven't been eating that poorly but perhaps a little differently than before (I was on WW right up until I got PG and when I'm on WW he loses some lbs too).  Add in a trip to Cabo though, that never helps :)  Funny poll though, I had a giggle when I saw it (MH probably wouldn't though, LOL).

  • fun poll :) MH said he had "sympathetic" weight gain... only i've lost my extra weight and he hasn't LOL (i attribute my weight loss to BFing though)
  • I voted for lost weight, but it was actually a combination of gained and lost. He initially gained, mostly because I was having bizarre cravings for really fatty foods and it was easier to cook one meal. Then once I was on my GD diet it was a similar story but for weight loss - it's such a healthy way to eat that he lost all the weight he gained and then some!
  • Interesting poll! I never would've thought of this before =) MH has gained just a little bit of weight but not much to make a difference. It's ironic though because even though we eat out almost everyday (because I still get nauseous when I cook or if/when the smell of dinner lingers around the house when I go to sleep), he hasn't gained much weight...but when we first got married and I was cooking every meal all the time, he gained 15 pounds! But the pregnancy and eating out all the time actually stabilized his weight, so it's the opposite of what I expected!
