Any other new parents out there?

Hey I’m new my names Josh. I’m 30 years old with a wife and a 2 month old son. I put on about 35LBS of sympathy weight while my wife was pregnant.

Any other parents out there wanna be friends? Just need some people to keep me accountable. I try to run atleast 25 miles a week and am making some healthy diet choices... still struggling with beer consumption though (down to about 2-3 a day) ... but I’m getting there!

Please add me!

    Welcome! 🙂 It’s not easy going “dry” but it’s not impossible (going on 20 days since my last beer).
    Cutting out alcohol completely, I’ve noticed huge improvements overall. Good luck to you! Feel free to add me! 😁

    I have an almost-7-month-old son at home. Managed to stave off too much weight gain during my wife's pregnancy but I'd like to get down another 8-10ish pounds to confidently be at point to justify a lean bulk. I've been in "maintenance" by most's definition for the entire time I've been using MFP (since 2012) but I'm here to stay, focusing on improving my body composition and fending off a dreaded dad bod. Feel free to add me as well. I can't claim I'm highly active as far as posting goes but I log religiously, will comment from time-to-time, and won't shy away from trading DMs if anyone wants to chat about anything specifically.
