Buses and fight offers…

Looks like the cat’s out of the bag, so I guess I can talk about it now. 

Anyway, there I am, minding my own business, just getting on with things and then… BAM… all of a sudden I get a phone call “I need to know in the next five minutes if you can fight at 120 lbs on April 3rd”. “Uh… I dunno. Oh shit. That’s four and a half weeks away! 120 lbs?!? You need an answer NOW? Can I phone a friend?”

The end result being that I’m tired, hungry and sore. I’m looking forward to it though. 120 lbs is pretty close to being perfect for me, so I’m keen to see what I can do at that weight. Already I’m feeling faster and fitter than when I was a bit heavier. And I’m going to have a six pack in a couple of weeks. Oh yeah!

    Two questions:

    1. How does this fit in with the ladies’ reality series you’re doing?

    2. How or where can you watch your fight (from home in the UK?)

    1. The reality series is still in pre-production. They haven’t given us a date for filming yet.

    2. I’m not sure. It’s being televised on ESPN Desportes the following day, but I’m not sure how you’d get that in the UK. These things have a way of turning up on the internet quite quickly though.

    Your title is misleading. Where are the buses you mentioned? I feel cheated

    something about waiting for ages and then they all come at once…

    Hey Rosi, where’s this fight taking place? Do you know the details yet? Glad something came up!

    Mother of 3, wife of coach and gym owner, full time registered dietitian, and fighter. LOL! My last weight cut was hell trying to juggle everything. I went to meetings with my little back pack of food containing boiled chicken and rice while all the docs ate pizza, BB-Q, and all sorts of stuff!! Hang in there. A lot of times this discipline (as I’m sure you know) will put many things into perspective for you…even the personal stuff. Good Luck! And if you need a RA RA just give a yell! :)
