  • I finally got my act together and ordered the digital food scales which will make life a lot easier when measuring out food because at the moment I’m kind of eye balling it but I’d like something a bit more accurate so then I can keep track of my calories in a day. I ordered…

  • On Monday I got up after having a sleep in until around 10:30pm, walked down to my local bakery and ordered Eggs Bene on toast with an extra egg, salmon and wilted spinach along with a cappuccino. I sat there and enjoyed every moment while reading some news on my phone. It isn’t something I’d…

  • The weekend is here, I had my usual 8km power walk this evening and tomorrow I’ll be heading into town to purchase a pair of running shoes along with some casual shoes given that the ones I have are, well, falling to pieces. Things are progressing with my weight loss – clothes are looser and…

  • One show I’ve really gotten into is Severance – I love a show that is a slow burn, gradually revealing what is happening rather than there being a rush to some sort of conclusion. There are a few new seasons coming this year so hopefully with the pandemic out of the way that we’ll see…

  • On Tuesday I went for a 14km power walk, I was sore all over, I could barely move by the time I got home – I rested on the sofa but I was still sore so I decided to go to bed and sleep it off. After having a good night sleep I felt so…

  • My working week is Wednesday to Sunday which makes Friday my ‘hump day’ – that mid point in my week that I can almost see the end of the week. I’ve done my grocery order tonight for deliver on Monday because I really couldn’t be bothered doing that on my day off – I’m in…

  • Monday night I upped my walking from 5.8km to 8km and I didn’t feel too bad afterwards – weight loess plus an improvement in my fitness resulting in more energy during the day. As noted in a video I was watching, “exercising gives you energy” and I’m stoked that I have a lot more energy…

  • The weekend has finally arrived – on Monday I’ll be meeting my doctor to check my progress in terms of losing weight and getting myself healthy. I’ve already noticed that clothes that were fitting are loser, I’ve had to put extra holes in my belt, there were a pair of tracksuit pants that I couldn’t…

  • Just a short blog post tonight, I came back from my nightly power walk and sat down to watch ‘Real Time with Bill Maher’, I understand he isn’t everyone’s cup of tea but as my old man would say to me that it is important to listen to people that you don’t agree with –…
