Yeah, Homer. Feel free to hog it all up if you want to. Of course, no pressure to, though. I agree with CZ. Reading other people's successes makes me want to try harder. For "thinspiration", sometimes I go on Youtube and watch videos of people who have lost 100 lbs. or more and see how they change. Or, I read their stories and look at their before & after pics. I don't have 100+ lbs. to lose, but I know if they had that far to go and are now thinner than me (gulp), I shouldn't whine. I should do something about it.
It's definitely inspiring to see how determined you are. I honestly don't have an ounce of the determination that you do. I did a few years ago but now I'm finding it's getting exponentially harder the older I get. If you can do it, I am very happy for you and would like to continue reading about your status, any new challenges, how fatherhood changes your eating and workout habits, etc. if you find the time to post.
