Day 9:
I have a personal mantra -- the more my mind is screaming at me to stay in bed and NOT go train, the more I need to do so. That being said, I decided to stop being a little b*tch and take my ass to the gym, especially after looking at myself in the mirror and realizing that I had lost A LOT of weight. If I keep up this training schedule, a few months, I'll be ripped as f*ck and a badass fighter to boot.
I'm so glad that I did.
Now, I was being ghosted like a mofo -- I mean, seriously, no one would even speak to me outside of this one tall alpha black dude who chatted me up for a good five minutes before and after class.
BUT -- something's switched in me. I was killing it in the Muay Thai class today. No sparring, but I was lighting up the heavy bag with some super quick combos. And most of all, I couldn't believe how relaxed I was when hitting the back. I've always had a problem with tension, which slows down technique. It's... just gone. I had no fear and was in a perfect flow state.
I asked the Coach a question at one point and he looked at me like I was an alien, or an absolute threat, like he couldn't figure me out. Whatever's shifted has changed people's perspective of me.
I ran to Dick's Sporting Goods to grab a new -- and better -- pair of gloves since the padding is gone out of the ones I had. The guy at the register kept trying to talk to me, even though I was clearly giving off a "I don't wanna chat" vibe. So clearly, celeb vibe is up... but attraction is down.
