Hello

Hi everyone, I had WLS on Oct 10th 2002 I started Taekwondo around my 2 months Post Op mark, I was about 250 pounds when I started, since then I have lost over 100 more pounds, competed in International and Local tournaments, took 5th place in last years International Womens tournament in South Korea and took Gold in a couple of tournaments here in California. I am currently a blue belt studying for my second stripe. I study WTF and I found that it is my true passion. The best thing about Martial Arts for me is it has taken the need for plastic surgery completely away. I have built lean muscles and my skin has tightened up great. Good to see there are others enjoying the journey. Krista

Sounds like you have fun with this too...Way to go! I have a tournament coming in October (my first one) I hope to do as well as you! Keep up the great work!
