2012 was the first of hopefully many years of activity. After my "post-baby" weight gain was causing my size 36 pants to be too tight, I decided I needed to lose weight and get in shape. (Yes, guys can gain weight with a newborn, especially if he never sleeps and you eat whatever as "treats" for not getting any sleep).
I first weighed in at 217.6 lbs and today I weighed 196.6 lbs, a loss of 21 lbs. I still have about 10 lbs to go and hopefully that will happen once the holidays pass (I haven't lost anything since Thanksgiving).
In the 20 weeks since I started running in August, I completed two 5Ks, and I have another scheduled in 2 weeks.
