I was able to make weight... actually came in 2 lbs below max weight for my bracket for the IBJJF PAN AMS.
I was pretty sick all day and being mostly dehydrated and calorie deficient I was worried at how well I would perform. A couple hours before my match, I started weighing myself and eating protein bars, and drinking an electrolyte drink. My metabolism must’ve really been revved up. I would eat and drink, and weigh again and I would not gain anything. By time I weighed in I had lost more weight!!!
Anyways, I won my first match barely 4-2 by getting a sweep in the last 3 seconds. I won my second match 10-0.
I am officially the women’s master 2 purple belt feather weight champion for 2018!!!
For those that don’t know, this is one of the bigger jiu Jitsu tournaments, so I am sooooo excited!!!! Especially since I only received my purple belt in September. It is also my first gold metal!!!
