Thank you, everyone! I really appreciate it! I see the orthopaedic surgeon again on tuesday. Hell probably chew me out but hey it will be worth it!
Hi Miss Rachel. I hope everything went well and nothing major showed up that will keep you from training for a long period of time. Good luck and keep up posted.....All the best, Steve

No way - I bet 10 bucks she doesn't take the belt off for at least a week. hehe.

congrats, thats totally awesome!

I wore mine to sleep that night. Rachel, congratulations. You will likely look back fondly on this day as a major milestone and perhaps turning point in your life. All the other forthcoming tests are just degrees of what you earned today. :asian:

Congratulations, Rachel!!!! It's tough, but you made it!!! Now, that is a worthy achievement!

Take care of yourself (your leg) as your body is the only one you've got....

I took my test anyway even though I am injured and I passed! I wrapped my leg real good and I was even able to run. 10:00 until 4 :00. It was so strenuous but invigorating. I have big bruising already from wrestling but I don/t care. I am so happy. I was determined to test even with an iinjury. Im so proud of myself. My leg hurt so bad at times but black belt is all about attitude and not giving up.
Congratulations! The lessons learned about perseverance and discipline will affect every day of your life for the better. I don't know you, but I'm proud of you. What's that saying? ... be a light, not a judge. Meaning, an example rather than a critic. Now you are an example to the lower ranks as well as your fellow Black Belts.

Well congratulations and now your learning and training really starts. You have now mastered the basics so now you will have to train twice as hard. Keep up the good work and many good things will happen!

Yes, I did. Sometimes old members lurk and reactivate their accounts. I'm hoping she'll be one of them as I miss her contributions.
