Of course, I have a sneaking suspicion that Big_john is going to have an easier time adding to his total than the rest of us 198-220lb guys. I suppose it depends on whether he actually follows through on his plan to get down to 230lbs.
Suddenly loosing the weight looks less attractive. Although I will say that I am finally dropping. I'm down at 280 now, which I'm pretty proud of considering the way I've been gaining strength, and the various law school related diet snafus. It all depends on how long the race goes on as to just how low I get.

I had to trim the beard, because I got a haircut and the lady fucked up my sideburns real bad and it looked retarded. It shall grow back shortly.

Kaz was cool as fuck. We were just kind of walking around, getting pissed because the place was just starting to fill up shoulder to shoulder with douche bags. At one of the exercise machine booths, I saw him sitting down in a chair kind of out of the way. I was afraid to go talk to him at first, because it kind of looked like he wanted to not be seen or spotted or was maybe eating. As soon as he saw us, however, and knew that we recognized him, he got up walked over and clapped me on the shoulder with his gigantic meat fist and shook our hands. He talked to us for a solid 10 minutes when he found out my friend was a computer science major, and ranted about technology and how the he hates the government and is going to kill the guy who married his ex-wife (which he segued into because he is a civil engineer like me, lol). I only wish I had the entire conversation on tape because it was hysterical. He asked all about us and our training which was pretty cool. When we got our pictures and turned around to leave there were probably 50 people lined up to talk to Kaz. I felt special.

He is still pretty damn big, and has gigantic fucking hands, but it was somewhat tempered because Zydrunas Sacickas had walked by us a little bit before on the way to warm up for the strongman, and fucking enormous doesn't even begin to describe him as a human being.

Well at least the UFC tonight will not have many douche bags.

Cool story.
