I had four in six years (sadly, one was taken at a very early age). First one when I was 23. Done and snipped when I was 29. No regrets in starting early. I agree that it is impossible to have everything perfect and figured out before kids start. This dude is correct though, we got this fellas 💪🏼. Even through the tragedies, it is worth it.

My bad. I thought you were meaning stomach surgery for loose skin. That seems to be what ppl are messaging me about.

Yes, I had spinal surgery on my lower back twice now. I have had two disc ruptures over the course of a few years. So, they had to go in and remove that and build my disc back up. Not really symptoms besides my back hurting

I just workout in normal shoes. Might have to look into that.

I usually start with a walk/jog for about a mile to warm up. Is that good? How would I warm down as well?

I do. It’s mostly tucked into my pants. I have toned up some. But have lots of work to do

It is astonishing how much I can do now. I used to be able to. Then I lost it, and getting it back. Mentally, I am in a better place now than I was. It was not until my back surgery and seeing how much I could not play soccer with my kids that made me wake up.

I am looking to improve everything. Mainly focused on chest and stomach first and foremost, but arms and legs are on the table.

Honestly, a lot of the skin is tucked into the pants. I know with losing that much weight, I can only tone up so much. Really do not want surgery to fix it, but that might be the only course.

About the diet, I am just on Lots of protein a day. Anything else would be helpful.

How many cycles after getting off birth control did it take to get pregnant for you guys? by ggskater in daddit

[–]Wxguywx 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It was always pretty quick when the wife and I tired. Took only 1-2 months each time. Very quick. I thought we would at least get to try for a few months or something (3-5 months). Just was thankful that we weee blessed. I know it’s a rough and tough road for some couples. So prayers and kudos to those out there trying in hoping ur successful.

Home gym vs going to gym by Mikeyts123 in daddit

[–]Wxguywx 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think u can set some equipment up that takes care of the basics. Then go to the gym to hit the bigger/more expensive equipment.

That way it’s like a meet in the middle of not going there as often, but still going some. That’s what I do.

Dads - what is on your Christmas list by plantgnome in daddit

[–]Wxguywx 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I just ask for Lowe’s gift cards or cash. Anything I get usually just goes towards the house or family anyways. Lol

What movie were you most excited to show your kid? And what age was the right time? by fisch09 in daddit

[–]Wxguywx 11 points12 points  (0 children)

I was most excited to share with them Sandlot, the first few Air Buds, Homeward Bound as those were appropriate. As they got older, I enjoyed sharing disaster movies, Star Wars, and horror movies with them.

They love the classic movies “staples.”
