Back on the bike
I bought the bike last week and straight away I got on it and done 30km. That was Saturday. On Monday I went and did a couple of laps around Centennial Park (well, 4 laps to be precise) and then came home. I wanted to do more laps, and felt physically capable, but my bum …
All Systems are GO!
I stumbled and fell, and now I have picked myself back up again. My weightloss was going well, and when I peaked at around 12kg I simply stopped. Initially it was the walking that stopped, then it was the diet that went out the window. But now I am back on the band wagon. Starting …
Trek 4300 Disc
In my efforts to lower blood pressure and get fit, I’m deciding to increase my heart rate with one of these little beauties. It’s next years model and the colour scheme (black with dark gray) is simply spot on. I paid shelf price on the bike and probably a little more than I actually wanted …
Wrong decisions
“I think I’ve made more wrong decisions in my life than right ones, I’ve been very selfish, and I’ve hurt a lot of really nice people because of it. Sometimes I wish I could go back and change a few things. But, sadly, if anyone could actually grant me a wish, I’d probably ask for …
Forgive me website…
Forgive me Website, for I have sinned It has been 106 days since my last blog-session… I’m still alive and, well, not doing so well on the weightloss front. Let’s come back to that later… A lot has happened since my last entry: I had my 39th birthday I went to Singapore, and today I …

I had another game of squash today, I have found it hard to get back into the fitness groove lately, but squash is easy. I love the game, it kills me, but I love it. We played for almost 2 hours today! Only about 10 games. I prefer playing handouts, the new international rules make …

LCD, or two?
™ ™ ™ trademark of respective companies I only went for a short walk to Moore Park (2.2km) today because I wanted to see what was out there in LCD land. So I paid a visit to Bing Lee, Dick Smith PowerHouse and Harvey Norman… I think I have found the one I will buy, …
