    For the love of the sun and sea. I love summer and spend my days outside. I had gotten so out of shape that last year I could not enjoy many of the things I normally do. So I made some changes and am ready to adventure all summer long.

    For my health. 47 year old mom with 5 kids ages 16 down to 4. They need me to be healthy. My husband wants me to be healthy and happy. I want to enjoy my loved ones as long as I can. Losing weight has been directly about my ability to be healthy and active for a long time. As for looking good naked? I gave that up so long ago it isn’t even on my radar. Loose skin is unattractive and somewhat easy to cover up!

    It’s cool to see some women here training in Muay Thai and Krav Maga! I just started Krav Maga and I love it. I was planning to lose another 10 vanity pounds and fit back into my pre-weight gain clothes. But since starting Krav Maga I’m thinking I might want to stay at this higher weight, so I have more power. I love focusing on what my body can do and eating to fuel my workouts!

    Because I can't eat anything I want without gaining weight anymore.

    Yes the extra power is nice but I like fighting people who are not taller than me more. Cutting weight for fights is horrid much better to be there already. I did enjoy clinching when heavier but you learn better technique when you can't rely on weight. My first fight I was about 10kg heavier than ideal for my height and it was difficult for my coach to get me a good match. My second and more proper fight I was 2kg off an ideal and the opponent was taller... I just clinched my way into a win but was lucky her clinch game was not great. Having said that I've seen a girl who is about 10kg too heavy winning belts she has obviously adapted to the height difference.

    Krav Maga is a lot of fun, and I love the down-to-earth practicality of it. I've been studying very inconsistently for about 6 months, but now I'm working towards taking the P1 test in September-ish.

    for the love of health and I would be lying if I said I wasn't also doing this to look good naked. I want my husband to find me attractive, always.
