Worse thing was, I cut into the lowest weight div which meant I was also first on to the mat.
Little guys have to be especially careful, as the big weight jumps are rough on small frames. My high school wrestling coach was around 350-380, because he was so pressured in high school and college to wrestle at the absolute lowest weight class. Three years back, he lost most of his toes to diabetes.

Remember that next time you're thinking of starving yourself.
