Jan 1 I found my self 32 years old, bored and doing fuck all and 235 pounds.

Today I'm 198 pounds, doing 3 weight sessions with a personal trainer, running 6 days a week, 3 class BJJ sessions and a private session starting Saturday. The teacher for both classes and private sesssions is named Sydney Machado, he finished 2nd in 95kg Weight Class for 2004 Worlds.
Nice man! I've ben striking for years too then got into BJJ about 4 months ago. I'm down 30 pounds now and actually starting to look slightly buff. I might start molesting myself soon.

Good for you though. The Machados are great teachers. I was at Team Micca which is a Machado school in Vegas and was real impressed. We have NAGA Worlds out here Saturday I can't wait to go.
