I guess it’s about time I filled this out…

A single (divorced) dad type in the very early 50’s raising two kids (well done with one actually). One in college, one soon to be high schooler. I have always been a fat guy, and athletic fat guy, but a fat guy nonetheless. I have fought the weight battle for many years learning from the successes and learning more from the failures.

Came here as I started my latest effort after falling down hard due to allowing life BS to overwhelm me over the last 4-5 years. But taking the lessons learned there and moving forward again with lifestyle changes that can be sustained even through the darkest times mentally (cuz ya know they are going to happen, life is a <bleep> like that).

I’m a biker, many varieties of nerd, OG geek, work-o-holic, dad, introvert, low key gammer, bookworm, aging adrenaline junky, and a thousand other things who’s basic approach to life can be summed up in one quote… “Fall down seven times… Stand up eight”
