New daddy here. I gained 30lbs over the past 2 years - 15lbs for each one of my two amazing new boys at home. 👨‍👩‍👦‍👦

I guess they call that sympathy weight for my wife! 🤔

About a month and a half ago I was pushing 200lbs body weight with body fat percentage in the upper 20s I'm sure. I hated what I saw in the mirror and how uncomfortable I was in my skin. 🤢

Time for change I thought. 🤔

Now, like many of you, finding the time to exercise is/was a huge issue. I own a weight set at home and have been waking up at 3:30 AM to workout. 😖😌😕

No cardio whatsoever.

In addition I've been using MFP to put myself in a 500-700 calorie deficit while keeping a high protein intake - 0.8 to 1 gram per lb of body weight.

And guess what!?

It's been working! 🙌

Anyway, I'm looking for friends so we can help keep each other motivated.

I'm here for you MFP peeps! Let's do this!

💪💪💪

    Congrats fellow daddy. And good job on your progress. I added you. My diary is open to friends. I follow LCHF though. Enjoy that precious time with our kids everyone reading this. We don't get it back, cherish every moment!
