As many of you know, I have PCOS. So I've been struggling with my weight for years now. After being stuck at a whopping 260lbs, size 22 pants, and 38/40h bra, for 2-2.5 years, I've -finally- started l

Weight is now down to 166. Just have to be careful over the next two weeks and I should eventually be back to 160, which seems to be the best range for me.

I am definately going to one of the classes to see how is it. I really need to work on sparring and ground-fighting.

You should see if you can find bas's technique video on youtube for the roundhouse kick. I've been doing thaiboxing for a couple of years, and when I switched to his technique for the roundkick I kicked the heavybag so hard that I raised a hematoma on my shin.

I'm not really familiar with Bas or any of his techniques but I will definately look for the videos on youtube. From what I understand, these classes are not like fight club so I'm not entirely sure how its suppose to go. I will keep ya posted.

Cool. The long and short is that Bas was a dutch kickboxer who got into pancrase and then full on MMA. He started off as a great striker, but developed an excellent ground game once he saw a need for it. He also has the hardest recorded kicks in combat sports.

Ah ok. Yeah, now I am excited for this class. I've been taking a ground-fighting class at my school, I'm still not very comfortable with it yet.

Bas Rutten Fight Club started this week but I think I am not going until this Saturday. Went to KM class monday and tonight was KM ground-fighting. Went to the gym and did a little bit of cardio and lifted weights today as well. Probably will go to the gym in the morning before pre-work naptime.

So I never made it to the Bas Rutten class on Saturday, ended up passing out on the couch. So I will go this week on Tuesday. The only thing that sucks is that it's at 8:30pm and an hour or so after KM class which I plan to attend to. Gonna go to kickboxing and KM this morning. I went to the gym yesterday and lifted weights and did a little bit of cardio.

Went to KM class and then a Bas Rutten class an hour after that. I ended up just observing the last part of the class because it was just 4 guys and me and they were doing body strikes. When we were doing the 1 to 4 combinations with Thai pads, my instructor said he was impressed. I still need to work on my striking though.

Is hitting the gym with the boyfriend after school :animier:.

Also want to learn capoeira, but have a feeling I'm going to have issues finding anywhere to do it. That's what the internet and a large basement is for though, right? I just figure if I'm going to be a breakdancer and a fighter, well that's just an easy decision.

Kung-fu, Brazilian Jiu-jitsu, and tai chi! Though I haven't been able to get to class in a while due having to adjust to me new work schedule (midnights) and getting used to the physicality of the job (loading/unloading/sorting many heavy boxes all night)...and financial issues. Gah! Why can't I pay for lessons by washing a car or something like Ralph Macchio? So I suppose I've still been getting a good workout. Been working the last 6 days in a row and good god am I sore in every part of my body. Thank god for 2 days off for recovery! Gonna get back on track soon though. I really miss kung-fu class :(

Capoeira: elegant, acrobatic, quick .....

and absolute useless in combat. ;)

      How Are You Feeling? (cont'd)

      ~~~~~ Yeah, thank you for the check-in.   Happy to say it was all a misunderstanding.  But she pulled out her "ghetto" and that's when things went South.  I get very professional minded when I enter into situations like that because when someone starts bring the court into conversations, I'm in court 2 times a year, every year, so don't go there with me because I will get legal all over you.   She did try to change what she thought she might have said, but I had to call her on it because it's all in written text.  Then she apologized and we were able to have a decent conversation.   I know I joke about me talking so much that people don't hear what I say except for keywords that they are looking for, but that is exactly what happened here.  She heard "payment", "money" and "help out".  It was crazy.  I literally had to have the entire conversation all over again, but I definitely condensed it to only address those 3 words.   Things are back on track, but I emphasized that if she every needed clarification for anything, please say something first instead of jumping to conclusions, then questioning that conclusion, then answering that conclusion, then getting upset at the answer and taking it out on someone who doesn't have a clue what the San Juan Hill just happened.   But this is exactly the reason I do everything with a paper trail.

      I'm glad  that yesterday's day at work is long gone now. There was a very strong unusual energy that I felt, and couldn't get done with the day fast enough. It wasn't  the job at all. I just felt like I really needed to keep my mouth shut, to keep me from getting in situation(s) that probably wouldn't have ended well for me.

      You can trust anyone you want.  The only question is whether or not they're deserving of that trust. No risk = no reward.  As such you have to let yourself be vulnerable sometimes and realize that all people will let you down eventually whether it's intentional or not.  The frequency that it happens is what's important.

      Sorry, I don't check this as often as I should. Anyway document everything (although it sounds like @Trene4000already has been from her post.) It's okay to cry and break down, but not in front of them.  Never give them the satisfaction of seeing you crack.  If anything I'd go out of my way to piss them off, but I don't like being that guy either (and as such I'm not very good at it, except sometimes when I'm not intending to be.) I try to only help those whom deserve it, but that's often hard to judge.  Seeing how someone treats other people is a pretty good indicator of whether or not they're worthy.  Sociopathic narcissistic asshats are very much not worthy. I hope things are going well for you guys.
