Gonna try to lose 40lbs by April 6th when my first born son is due. I know it's gonna be tuff and none of my friends believe I can do it. Gonna try my best and proof them wrong! Plus I want to be a fit dad for my first born.

    Nice work mate! your kid will be inspiration for yrs to come! good luck!
  • Boys need healthy dads too!! Kudos to u
  • Good luck on your weight loss goals. But I'm a realist, and you should set more manageable goals. As it stands now you would need to lose about 4 pounds a week, it's not really feasible.

    I understand you bro, I became a father to an awesome baby boy last September 29. All you want is to be the best dad possible and that includes being fit and healthy enough for kicking a ball around for the next 20 years at least. I'll send you a request.

    Btw, being a dad rocks.

    Congratulations!

    From one dad to another, it will be worth it when you are able to play with your son without getting out of breath and having to stop! Go for it, you can do it!

    Thanks for all the nice comments yall! If I don't lose 40 I will at least be happy with losing 30lbs. But I am as determined now as I have ever been!
