I finally got a call from the medical supply company about my CPAP (continuous positive air pressure) machine. I'd gone in for a sleep study several weeks ago, and they confirmed a) I am fat, b) I do snore, and c) I snore because I'm fat.
My poor fiancee has been after me to get this wrapped up so she can get a good night's sleep again. I'm just happy that I'll be able to sleep on my back or side without her yelling at me to lay on my stomach. This should also make me more alert, help lower my blood pressure, and give me an extra bit of energy so I can focus on getting in shape.
The only downside to this is the timing. I'm going to postpone officially joining Inferno MMA for a few weeks, until I've paid for both my CPAP and my initial joining fee.
I hated to tell the guys I'd be taking a little break between my trial and joining, but they were very cool about everything. They know that my work at Inferno is part of a larger plan to become a better, healthier me. I'm looking forward to making some real progress after I've had a few weeks of quality sleep.
Don't think that I'm going to forget about joining. I've got April 14th already booked on my calendar, the first Tuesday after my next paycheck. In the meantime, I'm going to keep busy on my own, swimming, maybe jogging. I may not be able to grapple or work the Thai Pads on my own, but where there's a floor, there's a place to shrimp.
Keep reading, because I'm going to keep writing, even during this break.
