For good or for ill, what I've earned in this life I have earned the hard way. All thanks to my wife, Joey, without whom I'd be dead in a ditch . It's a good day. Yes, it is. Happy 50th Birthday, @AaronMLuke. Hope you have a good un! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That starts now with Nightwing for @twiztor. Happy birthday bud. Have yourself a good un! This tradition is a year old which means... Happy Birthday to my bud, @twiztor. Have yourself a good un!

Have yourself a good un! thanks @The Natural! good choice as that is one of my favorite fights of all time (Robbie Lawler vs. Carlos Condit, UFC 195). Hard to believe that was already almost 6 years ago. big post follows. i tend to not overshare online, but really wanted to put some good vibes out there, and this seems like as good a place as any to do just that. Today is big ol' #40 for me. Seems hard to believe. I celebrated with the normal 3 day birthday party- dozens of people drift through the house throughout the weekend. We have drinks, play games (beer pong and video games mostly but there's a big ass annual Monopoly game too), and just have a good time. i love it, but it (unsurprisingly) takes a hell of a toll come Sunday night. I think this is the last year of the 3 day event, definitely need to downsize going forward. Also celebrated by paying off my mortgage! my goal had always been to buy a house at 25 and pay it off by 50, so i'm years ahead of the game. really pumped about that. then went to Buffalo Wild Wings and tried the Blazin' Challenge for the first time. i did it the unofficial way, since i only eat boneless wings and that's not the way they offer the challenge, but i don't really care about the t-shirt so not a big deal for me. i love spicy foods, so didn't think it would be too much of an issue. And it wasn't. beat it with time to spare. i've been on a quest to shed some pounds over the last year. around November 1st 2021 i tipped the scales at 265 lb. That's the upper limit for heavyweight fighters in the UFC- and it scared me that i had gotten so big. Had a goal of 225 by my birthday, so i started working towards that. I am unreliable about going to the gym, and worked an office job, so it was slow going the first 6 months and i hovered around 250 for most of that time. Took a bigger step in May with a promotion and a more active job. That pushed me harder to eat less and better (cut out lots of unnecessary sugar mainly), drink less (was less beer, although i did hit the liquor a bit more) and walking more. Was under 215 late last week, although after a weekend of partying i've picked up some extra #s there. I'm happy with where my life and health are right now, and am positive about the future. Much love all! 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Much love all! Pleasure, @twiztor. I had a few options for you but went with Robbie Lawler vs. Carlos Condit knowing that. It's in my top three MMA fights ever with Griffin/Bonnar I and Edgar/Maynard II. That needed an immediate rematch as Condit won. Damn Dana for not doing so. Didn't realize it was the big ole 40, apologies. I also like my food spicy. Congrats on the mortgage paid off and the weight loss. Love to you and Sarah. Paul xxx.
