Weigh In - March 2

This first weigh in is a doozy. I can't believe I let myself go this bad. Having two kids in two years didn't help, but make no bones about it I had become chunky and lazy a few years before kids. But the only way to go is up! I'm excited to see where I will be in a month, six months, a year.
But anyway. I worked out today for the first time in about two years. I took a R.I.P.P.E.D. class at the local YMCA with a girlfriend of mine. And it was tough! But afterwards I felt so energized it was amazing! I plan on going again on Monday.
I'm not sure if I'm going to regret this or not, but below is my starting picture. I took a picture with my bare belly showing, but I'm not quite ready to show that to the world yet. As you can see, I definitely have many areas to improve. And, drumroll please, my starting weight is...

173.2

Gulp.

There's not much else to say except seeing that number motivates me to do better.
Here's to hoping the next weigh in shows an improvement.

Stats:
Weight: 173.2
