Newby from Miami

Options
My wife and I just had our second son two weeks ago, and she joined weight watchers to help her with the baby weight. Since men gain baby weight too (we do really) I figured, I'd try to do the same, but didn't feel like paying extra for the program. So I checked out free calorie counting programs, and signed up for this one and another site. I preferred this one, so here I am.

I'm 5'9" and currently fluxuating between 203 and 208 lbs. I don't look terrible, but definitely could lose the love handles. When I met my wife, I was a much leaner 175, but great cooking mixed with a computer geek job is a bad combo. My current goal is 185 by the end of the year, so let's see how it goes!

    Welcome Brandon from Miami! Miami would be nice. Woke up this morning to an ice layer on the bird fountain. Ah well, another winter to look forward to. Congratulations on your second bouncing baby boy!
