Well it’s the end of my first week of dieting and the figures are:
Date……………………20 May
Weight………………..197 lbs
Loss/Gain week…..5 lbs
Loss/Gain Total……5 lbs
Pretty happy with five pounds, although most of it is probably fluid. I made a mistake in my maths last week – I actually weighed 202 lbs!
So welcome to the first day of my weight loss attempt (otherwise known as my diet 
) I haven’t worked out a target weight yet but i’d like to lose at least 20 lbs.
Date……………………13 May
Weight………………..202 lbs
Loss/Gain week…..0 lbs
Loss/Gain Total……0 lbs
When I was weighing myself it reminded me of the annual weigh-in to play rugby when i was at boarding school (my god their website is crap!) We had this kid who was short for his age and, as the teams were picked on weight, he would always be picked to play with and against kids younger than him. For the last few years he would go to the weigh-in with weights in his pockets and a dumbell held behind his back………….
MONDAY MISSION 2.17
1. When was the last time you pampered yourself? I honestly can’t remember 🙁 Sad maybe but it’s true….
2. When was the last time someone pampered you? Hmmm, let me think…………..
3. Describe the last time you recall really feeling loved (other than from children or pets). Yesterday – Vic and I looked at each other at exactly the same time and could tell that we were just looking becaused we loved the other person. No words – just a look.
4. Has your use of the computer ever caused any arguments? What’s the story there? Yep – often about Vic thinking I spend too much time with digital photo’s, website designing, surfing…….
5. What’s the most embarrassing thing your Mom ever did? Got hammered at a family party and danced around the lounge in her slip :emb:
6. I’ve met some adults who’ve never learned to swim, and others who never learned how to ride a bike.. Is there anything that you never learned as a child that you probably should have? Swim properly – I can swim but would like to feel comfortable in the water.
7. Someone once said, a picture is worth a thousand words. Post an image that says more than words. Or instead, describe a picture you recall which touched your heart. I really wouldn’t know where to start. Most conflicts or disasters throw up amazing images – Auswitz, Oklahoma, WTC, Vietnam you name it. The world of photojournalism is littered with iconic images that amaze, confuse, disgust, amuse, depress and give hope.
BONUS: What’s love got to do with it? Why, everything of course
.. i had some cereal for b’fast (a mixture of honeynut cheerios and crunchynut cornflakes) and my stomach is making very weird and extremely loud rumblings ! you know, the kind that makes the air in your throat vibrate :zoink:
the strange thing is i’m not even hungry.
hmmmmm……..
maybe! but all i can say is i’m very impressed. this guy is “running” the london marathon in an antique divers suit. the boots weigh 20lb each and the entire suit weighs 8 and a half stone!
