WARNING – weight-related, fitness rant ahead. I promise not do do this often.
There. I said it. I’m fat.
That’s a hard reality to admit out loud. I’ve always hedged a bit by admitting that I’m a bit overweight, but it’s time to face hard facts. I’ve got to lose fifty pounds to get back down to a comfortable weight, and even then I’ll STILL be on the heavy side.
Here’s a comparison. The photo below shows two images of me and Laura. The one on the left was taken in the mid-1990’s. The one on the right was taken this past December.
So, you see, I wasn’t always this way. I know people gain weight as they age, but this is not good.
For most of my early life I was so skinny that people got worried. This photo from the early 1980’s shows how skinny I really was.
