i'm back ^.^

Its been a little more than a year since I posted and I still haven't met my goal :/ I was very close for a while and dropped the ball. I am, however, trying again and am very close!! I am (at last weigh in) 25 lbs from my goal weight of 160 lbs. I had wanted to shoot for lower but my dietician (yes I now have one and she has helped tremendously) told me that if I went lower it wouldn't look right for my build and that 160 would be a good weight for me. Considering that when I restarted my weight loss I was at 210 I am quite proud of myself. I am also happy to announce I have advanced 2 belts to 6th kyu and my fighting has improved exponentially. I still have a lot of learning left to do but I am well on my way and happy to be so.

Lets try this again lol,
Bai

Osu,

Is that 25lbs over a one year period? Not bad at all - I wish I could get to 160. ... congratulations too on your promotion since then.

Recently had to do a hanko for a colleague - Bushido Goju Ryu, so you avatar just reminded me of that.

Hah, a fellow Okie and ABKA member. I was born and raised in Loco, OK and studied until I was 19 with Sensei Randy Dressler in Duncan, OK. That is where my whole Karate jouney began.

Osu!

Omg you studied with the Dresslers?! Abby is one of my favorite female martial artists. I was at her last black belt test. I am extremely jealous lol. I am at Liberty dojo. Its great my uncle is one of the instructors so I get pushed really hard. If it weren't for him I probably wouldn't be anywhere near where I am now. He was the reason I started lol
