New York Post Reporter Explains How He Shed Those Freelancer Pounds

So far, Michael Kaplan has dropped 30 pounds.

Fun piece today from senior features writer Michael Kaplan, who joined the Post in February.

He explains that as a freelancer, the all-hours proximity of both kitchen and coffee shop food, together with a lack of office structure and lunch hour discipline, led him to balloon to 250 pounds. When he joined the paper, he was tipping the scales at 238 lbs. Today, he’s down to 208.

Kaplan admits he never took full advantage of his Park Slope YMCA membership, even though that facility was just six blocks away.
