Another week down, it’s actually half way through week five as I write this. Why you ask? Well during sparring this week I took two shots to the face. The last one busting my lip open in four places. The outside gashes are pretty much healed but the inside cuts aren’t being so forgiving. I knew I should have gotten that mouthpiece but I like to procrastinate. On top of that, I find myself having some disagreements with one of my coaches but I’m sure we’ll work things out.  

So this week has had me in a bad mood so far and sucked the motivation right out of me but I’ve picking up the slack. I will get back to training hard again today and will continue on despite this minor set back. I definitely will have to talk to Chuck to make sure the sparring partners know that we’re sparring and not trying to murder me. It seems to be a bit confusion there, at least for this week. Outside of all the negative stuff, all the sparring before that last round with me getting busted open, all went better then expected. I locked in a couple submission moves and even tapped Delonn. He says we were in a stand still, but he still TAPPED!  

So all and all, I felt good about 95% of the sparring, just the end was a little upsetting. And so, I’m off to hit the heavy bag for a bit and try to lose more than 12 pounds, as this number seems to be sticking. I hit 12 and my body won’t let any more fat go. I know I can cut the weight. I just need to keep working. Eventually I’ll get over this 12 pound hurdle and move closer to the 37 pound weight loss goal. Wish me Luck.
