Perspectives
When I went home in August this summer, my dad looked skinny for the first time.
It’s not that he went on a diet or has been exercising more than usual. I’ve just been growing and gaining weight so I finally reached that point where my perspective changed.
From when I was little, I always thought that my dad was huge and a lot bigger than me. My perspective shifted for the first time when I went through puberty and ended up being around 6′ 1″. I was bigger than my dad for the first time in some way.
I always thought 180lbs was a lot and I think that’s what my dad weighed throughout my childhood. Now, I weigh 190lbs and probably will continue to add mass for a while.
My dad is still bigger than me in almost every non-physical way, though.

At first, I thought you used to think your dad was fat. Then I realized that you used to think your dad was big. I forgot that not being skinny doesn’t mean you’re fat; you could also be big and muscular.
Keep on putting on that lean muscle!
