Congrats!

Also, your flag is pointing the wrong direction in the "before" pic.

Maybe a metaphor? But you have probably already tossed that shirt, so it's all good now!

Congrats man... but do us a quick favor.. please don't drive to the fields in your uniform... :wave:

What is wrong with driving to or from the field in uniform??????

Is there a written or un-written rule I don't know about????????

If I am working the bases, I see no reason why I can not drive to and from my home to the game/s in uniform.

SWMBO also appreciates it as it means less laundry that has to be done.

There are some (I'm not one of them) that say it will wrinkle your pants and you won't look professional !

Also, when you get to a field in a scholastic contest you're suppose to go to the field to check in with the site admin/coach. Most associations want you to do this in business casual clothes. Garment bag and gear bag stay in the car. This is of course if you have the luxury of a locker room. For Rec ball then yes it can wrinkle your clothes as well. But not as nessassary.

Good job, I would love to drop twenty, that would put me at 195. The problem is it isn't enough to overly motivate me.

How about this one, Michael: For every pound you lose, there is six to eight pounds less pressure on your knees when you run.

That motivated me when I heard it. I can afford to lose ten or twelve (I'm 6'0''/198), and running with less stress and pain is the main reason. (Remember when more sex was the goal? Now it's trotting with less pain.)

I weighed myself the other day and I was 215. We just got a new scale so my wife and I both checked our weight. The next day she went to the Dr and she said scale was right with his. I thought descretion was the better part of valor so all I said was OK, no question of what her number was. She asked what mine was, so I told her. She said," Really, I thought you were heavier than that." Wow, now what if I had said that to her?
