A good dad taking a stand

So I tried this before, waaaay before (before Under Armor owned this App) but I wasn't motivated enough to keep up and I wasn't informed enough to know what I was doing.
Now my kids are teenagers and they are getting bigger, faster and stronger. I just cannot let myself be beat by them. A dad has to take a stand.
So here we go, trying low carb this time. Seems to be working, down 11 lbs so far with just a few weeks in. I know the plateaus are coming and there will be those moments of weakness but I am determined this time.
While they may already be faster, I'll be damned if I can't still take them in a good wrestle.

Thanks everyone! Outside motivation is definitely a plus and probably necessary this time around.0
