I used to be fit

Like actually in shape. Went to the gym five days a week, ran on weekends, ate clean, looked decent. Then kid number one showed up and suddenly I'm at 230 with no gym membership and a dad bod that just keeps growing. The weird part is I care less about it now than I did then. Too tired to care I guess. Anyone else just accept this is your life now?

Same boat here. The crazy thing is I'm probably in better shape just from keeping up with a 7yo than I ever was grinding at the gym. Different kind of fitness.

Man I feel this in my soul. Three kids later and the only time I work out is when I'm chasing them around. I keep telling myself I'll get back to it but something always comes up. The gym membership just collects dust.

I get it but honestly my priorities just shifted. Fitness was important to me but fatherhood is more important. I'd rather spend that gym time with my kids while they're young. You can always get back to it.
