Happy New Year!!

Happy New Year (and decade) to one and all

May your year be filled with success and happiness

No new years resolution here; just continued success with my band; weightloss and the new me.

My Belated Christmas Present: I lost another 1kg

After a week of not really doing what I should; and eating what I shouldn’t (I can help myself with Mince Pies and Christmas pudding); I stepped on the scales this morning and to my surprise I had lost a kilo since last week; taking me down to 101.4kg. Not that it means that if I do let myself go that this will always be the case…


I think part of it was helped along over the last couple of days of not having much to eat because of where I was working down the south coast. Yesterday A bacon and egg roll; half a sausage roll; and a gourmet pie (along with a few diet cokes and 4 bottles of water) was all I had between sun up and sun down… Not the best diet but when you’re on assignment and stuck with a Satellite dish in the middle of nowhere you can be cant be too choosy


There no New Years resolution here this year either… I had mine early back on 09/09 and couldn’t be happier (not to mention fitter and feeling great)


HAPPY NEW YEAR to you all

The Festive season is almost over

Well I think I survived my first festive season with the band pretty much with no problems… I guess the proof will come when I weigh myself on Wednesday… Christmas Day I must admit I did let myself go a little; grazing most of the day; but hey it’s once a year… and even then I knew when I was full; and didn’t feel like I was the stuffed turkey at the end of the day; like I have in previous years.

I must admit I have to slow down with my eating again… I have been speeding up a bit lately; and then ending up with hiccups… It’s been really hectic of late and I think that has been part of my problem… and if that’s the only problem I’m having it I must be going OK…


I have been picking a bit of late too… you know; a few hours after dinner and you head to the fridge and check out the leftovers… Not every day but at least 2-3 times a week… but I’m still loosing weight so it can’t be that bad although I need to kick the habit again… occasionally when I do that though I don’t chew enough so I tend to regret it after as it doesn’t go down that well and I end up with some pain… Not good...


I got back to walking again this morning and still going my 4.5km in about 35 mins do I’m happy with that one too…


Just under a week now until the New Year and then January starts to heat up with Tennis and looking ahead to another busy year… Winter Olympics, World Cup Soccer, Comm. Games; as well as the other annual events; and that before any natural disasters, bushfires or tragedy’s that we just can’t plan for… and thats just work.

I'm hoping to get a bit done around home next year too... Finish the painting, new grass and gardens front and back and tidy up the garage...


Until next time
