New year, new me. Prior to Thanksgiving, I was hovering around 190 pounds. Checked in this morning at a solid 192.6 butt ass naked. I liken the 2.6 pound weight gain over the last 6-7 weeks to going to the casino and only losing like $100 on the night. Sure, you technically lost, but you only lost $100, so it's also technically a win. To only put…
