This is my weight

I have this “unidentified friend” who has been working on his weight for a while. On occasion, he’ll post about his progress and from what I can see, he’s trimming down. (And from what Chuck can see, he’s shaping up!)

I’ve been working on getting in shape a bit myself. I haven’t really been trying to control my weight, but I have been keeping an eye on it just out of curiosity. The results?

In the past year, I’ve put on 5 pounds. In the past three years I’ve managed to gain 10 pounds.  When Butterfly was born, I was in the mid 170’s, but now I’m sitting around 185-187.

So where is this weight going? Have I been working out so much that I’m getting really muscular? Maybe I’ve eaten so much that I’m getting fat. Maybe I’ve taken in too much iron and my bones are getting heavier. Oh, I know, I have a goatee and I need a haircut…maybe that’s most of it.

Better yet, I’ll ask you, the random people of the internet. Where is the weight going? Even if you don’t know me, you can feel free to answer.  Here are your choices:

    • A) Wow, you’re getting muscular! Is it legal to carry those guns?
    • B) Dude, you’re getting fat. Three chili dogs at one meal is enough.
    • C) It’s probably all added mass in your brain. You seem smarter every time I talk to you.
    • D) I don’t know you, but judging by your blog, you’re a handsome fella.
    • E) Maybe you should try brushing some of that plaque off your teeth.
    • F) While A and C are very true, I think you’re just getting old…like Lance.
    • G) This post was very boring and I didn’t even make it this far down.
