Dad’s old spare tire…

Posted by Dad on Nov 6, 2008 in Dad Issues, health | 0 comments

There’s no clearer sign of age on good old dad than that spare tire around our midsection.  Our wives are too nice to say too much about it.  Maybe love makes them blind when it comes to our growing tire and they still picture us with our twenty-something physique. I don’t know.  What I do know is that I don’t like it.

I just hit 40 this year and maybe it’s a midlife thing but I’m determined to lose my gut by the time I hit 41.  I’ve bought the books and the diet food.  I’m motivating myself to row every morning.  The only thing I need is real motivation.  I’m debating whether I should take a picture of my belly and post it right up here like the picture above.  That will certainly motivate me to lose it. Look at this article on the subject.  I don’t know.  Maybe I will.

All the best.
