I always realized that when I had lost some weight, I would be able to do things I had only dreamed of. Since losing 78 pounds ( so far ) I am about to learn.....
Jiu-Jitsu
After some online searching, I found a respected and credited Jiu-Jitsu, MMA, Boxing, and Muay Thai camp only 25 minutes from my house.
The thought of doing something once deemed impossible, is just.....well, lets just say I have a shit eating grin on my face. And, with doing this a few times a week, I will burn more calories, learn some great submission fighting, and maybe learn some self discipline.
Only one down side, odds are I will have to get contact as doing this in glasses probably won't go well. /sigh
But oh well, tonight I'm just heading to there building and observing to see if I like em. Hopefully I will start training sometime next month, can't freaking wait.
How is everyone else doing today?

It's a great idea to begin a sport!
I've done some Ju-Jitsu when I was like 13, but I didn't like it because I was only with 40 years old men and they were taking me for a crash test
No I do fitness, I began 3 years ago but I stopped going frequently a few months ago and planned to go back tomorrow!
It could be a way to avoid your glasses problem, but you have to know that it's a quite different thing : the purposes are loosing weight, improving physical condition and reinforcing the muscles but you can't talk about learning to fight or even mastering a martial art this way... besides, the atmosphere is like in fitness clubs (everybody screaming and having fun), which is at the opposite of the relaxing and focusing state of mind of a martial art.
I wanted to begin real muy thai course this year but finally I had too much work for my studies... but it's my favourite part of the course now (it can be nice to see the different styles before you choose a martial art).
Anyway, if you want to try this, don't forget the coaches are always trying to push you further and you don't have to listen to them unless you want to die trying this course
I wish you will have a lot of fun whatever you choose, sport is sometimes a pain but at the end it's really worth it.
(Sorry I feel like unable to express anything clearly in english tonight, I spent the whole day cleaning every centimeter of my appartement, and it just made me sick because I hate cleaning :mad
Have a nice evening!
