So, a little progress finally.
December a year ago something popped in my back and my right leg lit up then quit working right, this past May I had the surge and got some immediate benefit, got balance and control back, since then I got some strength back but not all yet.
In the last year and a half I have managed to stack on the 20 lbs I had lost in the gym and another 20 or so, yesterday I tipped the scales at about 270, fucking ridiculous but I had 3 Dr's telling me not to do anything like I had been, no lifting, bending twisting or any of that.
So this week I have finally been able to get moving, back is healed and I started my 1st Tai Kwando class on Monday, tonight was the second. First forms (White Form) will take me a month or 2 to learn and a couple more to master. This stuff is a serious workout and I almost got my ass kicked by a 7 yr old asian girl. She disappeared under my right arm and re-appeared on my left and sent a nasty crescent kick past my head, Dammit! But she has a tell, she smiles right before she busts a move so the next time I saw it coming and blocked it.
40 lbs by the end of the year, some of this is going to suck.
