It's been 4 years since I've updated this log. I guess I ought to do something about that.

So for a quick update, the log stopped on the day I started a new job. 4 years later I'm still working the same job. Since that time, I became a foster parent, then became an adoptive parent, and became a bio parent again, ending up with 4 kids now!

I've made a lot of excuses to myself over the last 4 years that I am just too busy to work out and stay in shape. On top of the kids I also bought a fixer upper house, started raising chickens and ducks, annually grow a 2000 sq ft garden, and started a coffee roasting business and selling at the farmers market on the weekends.

I ballooned up to 265 lbs though. I'm going to make time now. I can tell it's affecting my health and my outlook on life.

Updates:

Weight is at 240. I've basically maintained since the last time I posted in here. With 4 kids now, a full time job and running a business on the side, workout time is at a premium. I've been working with the collegiate wrestling team again this season. Things are feeling great. I took time off last season after suffering yet a another shoulder dislocation shortly after I stopped posting in here 17/18 season. I'm at an age now where the dislocations have a much more serious effect on my life, and have to take it easier. I'm doing some light weight lifting at the end of wrestling practice, just kind of priming the pump before I can focus time on that again.
