Hi I am a dad and I love it. I have a great 6 year old son and he has 5 year old triplet siblings, two girls and a boy. I have always been over weight. but you know its getting/gotten bad when your six year old tells you, on the regular, "daddy your tummy is big". I want to be a better roll model for them and have more energy to do things with them. I eat there crap and have a hard time getting them to eat good. Just need to get on track and get some motivation. I've tried on my own and now I Know I need some support.
Oh yea did I mention my wife. I have been married to a wonderful woman for 10 years now. We both have similar weight issues. Up and down. I love her and would like for us both to get in better shape so we can both be there for our kids and each other. So that being said, I am so happy to be here. I have never been very active on any message board but I am going to do my best to be active here and ask for your help.
Thank you.

You've got your hands full! I only have one daughter and she keeps me busy enough lol. Your family can be a huge motivator but can also add to the challenge especially when the kids are begging for chicken nuggets for dinner or whatever. Make a conscious choice to modify your lifestyle and become healthy and great things will follow. You can do it!0
