Tuesday 10 February 2009 – 90.6

I didn’t exercise tonight because of exhaustion.  I was in bed at 6:30, and was asleep by 7.  I also slept on the train on the way home, so maybe I’m coming down with something, or it’s the fact I’m recovering from the heat…. Breakfast: vegemite on turkish bread Lunch: hokkien noodles (lite’n’easy) Snacks: banana [...]

Sunday 8 February 2009 – 90.7

Today was just as hot as yesterday. Well, I’ve gone up with my weight.  Not by much, but still up.  Probably because of what I ate on Friday night.  It was fun, and I won’t be doing it again for a while, so I’ll chalk that one up to experience.  I’ve still lost over 3kg [...]

Saturday 8 February 2009 – 90.9 kg

Today was hot!!!  It got to 42.3C (that’s 108F) I got up and was at the pool by 8am, and swam 2.2km.  That’s the furthest I’ve swam in one session since I’ve started this crusade.  I used to swim more than this when I was at school, but that was over 20 years ago!! I [...]

Friday 6 February 2009 – 90.9kg

Ten years ago today I got married.  Tonight I celebrated with my mum and a glass of champagne.  We celebrated the fact that I am no longer married! I met mum in the city after work, and we spent a really nice night together.  My sister was flying up from Melbourne, but her flight wasn’t [...]

Thursday 5 February 2009 – 90.9kg

Today was hot again.  I was on site at lunch, and met a former colleague.  I didn’t have the best food choice for lunch…. I swam 1.2km today before the pool shut.  I was really tired by the end of the day. Here’s what I ate…. Breakfast: cheese and ham on soy & linseed toast [...]

Saturday 31 January 2009 – 90.5kg

Well, I’m still on the downward trend which is great!  I’ve also cracked the 200lb mark!  I’m 199.5lbs.  Lets hope this trend continues! Today I swam 2km, and it took me about 1 1/2 hours.  This has got to count for some good offest. Today I ate: Breakfast: soy & linseed bread with egg, basil-from-a-tube, [...]

Friday 30 January 2009 – 91.4

Ok, here’s what I had Breakfast: Baked beans on grain toast (lite’n’easy) Lunch: hamburger on grain roll with pickled beetroot (yum!!) (lite’n’easy) [...]

Thursday 29 January 2009 – 91.7

Who knows what’s going on.  I was 91.7 today, up 0.6 on yesterday, but 0.2 down on the day before…. I went boxing tonight, because I didn’t go on Australia Day.  I also did sit-ups and reverse sit-ups. Here’s what I ate today: Breakfast: Ham and cheese on grain muffin (lite’n’easy) Lunch: chicken tenders wrap [...]

Wednesday 28 January 2009 – 91.1

Wow!!!  My weight is down!!  I’m down to 91.1kg.  Not the lowest I’ve been, but not far from it. I swam 1.5km today before giving up.  There were so many people at the pool and there was only 1 lane open for lap swimmers.  This meant that the ultra-fit triathlon swimmers were swimming in the [...]
