Super Duper #proudpapamoment! Made it back to CT safe and sound and what does my awesome daughter want to do but play #rockband4! To top it all off she totally rocks out to a classic Janis Joplin tune!! I would call that a #parentingwin for sure. So happy to see my little girl! 😆❤👏👏👏🎉🎊 (at Canterbury, Connecticut)

I love doing jiu-jitsu. However I completely agree with this. At the prime age of 37 I am not in this to compete for points. I want to learn to defend myself or someone else when the time comes. That is what I enjoy most about #KobaRyu the style of Peter Rogers Sr. and Pete Rogers Jr. which encompasses a good deal of #bjj and stand up techniques that allow for #selfdefense rather than competition. All that being said, having the knowledge and learning all different styles is always a benefit. I look forward to learning a lot more on the journey with my UFC Gym Davie team as well as progressing further in with my Rogers Academy training! #themoreyouknow #knowingishalfthebattle (at UFC GYM)

Fresh out of the wash yesterday! Poor thing broke down on me while on 75N near Miramar, FL. Long story short it was extremely overheating due to a busted water pump and hose. Had the Eagle fixed the next day and it's back to South Florida cruising today! I am hoping to get to my first @sfljeepclub meet and greet this month too 👍 Have a wonderful Sunday all! #jeepwave #jeeptj #JeepLife #ilovemyjeep #southfloridacruisin (at Simoniz Car Wash)

This was totally me at 4AM this morning 😞 I hate waking up with the sweats and shakes. I had lows at 4 and 630 this morning when I got up. Time to adjust overnight insulin to compensate for the #bjj #workouts. I haven't had lows in a while and am now remembering how much I hate them.... #diabadass #diabetes #t2diabetes #diabeticproblems #lowbloodsugarsucks #cranberryjuiceftw (at Plantation, Florida)

I was able to work techniques all night 💪On top of all thaJannett Urbistondoot anGiselle Marie Riveraae were awarded their blue belts! Congratulations to you both! I believe in being humble and learning from those with with more experience and right now I could not ask for any better #bjj instructors. Thank you to everyone for a great night!

It is so wonderful to have the privilege and honor to train with this man! Master Toco Albuquerque is a fantastic instructor and human being! A Carlson Gracie Sr. black belt of 20 years, the experience he brings is unparalleled. On top of that he is the most humble person I know. Thank you Master for allowing me to learn from you! #bjjlifestyle #bjj #MartialArts #type2diabetes #diabetes #fitfam #bjjlife #ufcgymdavie #respect #humble (at UFC GYM)

Wow what an amazing night of #bjj! We rolled for a full hour straight, switching partners every 15 minutes. What a #workout! After we finished Coach Breno, Master Toco, Paulo, and Coach Mike had a promotion ceremony in which I was promoted to 3 stripes!!! Congratulations to Sarah and Neymi on getting your blue belts! #gettingstrongereveryday We have a great family @ufcgymdavie! Thank you to all my coaches and teammates! You guys are awesome! #bjjlifestyle #type2diabetes #diabetes #MartialArts #ufcgymdavie #persistance #patience #humility #fitfam (at UFC GYM)

So I am hanging out getting my Jeep fixed and and older gentleman comes in and we get to talking about our families, and what he used to do for work and all kinds of topics. He was just a fun guy to talk to and had a great sense of humor. I always enjoy listening and talking with older people. They have so much experience and often have unique perspectives on life. It pays to be sociable! #respectyourelders #alwayshavefun #beingnicegoesalongway (at Firestone Complete Auto Care)

I really do love my #Jeep. It really is a lifestyle that comes with such a feeling of freedom as you drive it 🗽Even the drive to work is not so bad when driving a Jeep. I can't wait to get Sharyn and Julia down here so we can cruise to the Keys with the top down! Pretty soon the upgrades start, beginning with a desperately needed new top! #bringonthefloridasummer 🌴🌞☕🚢 #JeepLife #JeepGoldenEagle06 #jeepwrangler #jeepwave #jeeptj (at Plantation, Florida)

Hanging with @steve_pekala showing off the Mad Hamster. I think I may have to bring the Wrangler next time... 😃🚘 (at Solivita Florida)

OK here is a little #tbt and #transformationtuesday albeit a bit late 😉 in the picture on the right I was nearly 250lbs and no I was not in the service at that time, I was in uniform for a wedding. It was embarrassing to see some of those pictures for me. Flash forward to today and I am at 190lbs, 10 more to go to hit my goal. Thanks in a large part to @petetheheatmma #kobaryu, #bjj @ufcgymdavie and the support of my friends and family I have been able to turn my life around, get my #type2diabetes under control. It is a lifestyle change people, not just diet and exercise for a while and stop, it's FOREVER. Embrace it and work hard and the results will come! #bjjlifestyle #MartialArts #fitnessaddict #diabetes #trainhard #motivation #dontstopbelieving

Awesome seminar tonight with the head instructor of #braziliantopteam! On top of this great class we had promotions and I received my second stripe!
