Diet Update

This last week I’ve lost…

2.5lbs!

I’m half a pound away from having lost an entire stone since I started the diet, and I’m 1.5 lbs away from not being overweight anymore… and this is despite the two double cheeseburgers I had at the JNE meet yesterday. I wish I’d have taken a “before” photo when I started this diet ya know, because I just can’t see where the weight has come off. I feel as big as I was when I started.

Still… I’m half way… I’ve got another stone to lose before I reach my first target weight.

February JNE Meet

// February 10th, 2008 // No Comments » // Geeky Stuff, General

Another month, another JapNorthEast meet. There was a HUGE turnout today and, despite only taking up to 400 photos this time, loads of pics made it to my gallery today. I’d learnt from last month that using the burst mode option is a good idea, but before I was going overboard with it. Instead of taking 4-5 snaps at a time, this time I was taking 2-4 instead. Despite this, 18 pages of photos made it to the gallery as opposed to 16 last month.

Oh, and I won on the raffle as well!! I won a JNE desk calendar. Granted, it’s not as high a prize as most of the others, but everything else was car stuff… and exactly what would I do with them? I think there was something funny going on though, as one person won three prizes! I just hope he bought a shitload of tickets…

I even stuck around to see the winner of this month’s competition pose for their photos (See above). Congrats fellahs! 🙂

Another Christmas Present

// February 6th, 2008 // No Comments » // Geeky Stuff, General

Another Christmas present came through the post today. Mother had ordered it before Christmas but it was out of stock. It’s…

It really is very good. It wouldn’t be worth the while if you got it by itself, but coupled with Diamond/Pearl on the DS it’s excellent! I’m going to start playing Diamond again so I can get the most out of this.

So… Amazon didn’t have any in stock for ages then huh? HMV had it in. Game had it in. Gamestation, Chips, Vizavvi, WHSmith, Woolworths… they all had it in stock. I know, I saw it when I browsed these shops after Christmas. Tsk!

Ow! My arms ache!

Ow! I’ve been to the gym yesterday and today. Yesterday was a warm up, doing the same routine as I did before. However, today Nigel had me on a new routine involving lots of weights. My GOD my arms haven’t hurt so much for ages!! He says after a few visits I’ll get used to it. I sure hope so…

Nonetheless, I earned a few points from doing all that so I should be able to treat myself this week. Maybe with a few drinks tomorrow night at the Crown. I’ll be wearing my new Ghostbusters t-shirt so look out for me! 🙂

This last week I’ve lost…

1.5lbs!

Which means I’m at 12st 10lbs now. Another 3lbs and I’ll have lost a complete stone since starting this diet, and one more lb after that and I’ll no longer be overweight (according to the NHS). I’m also lighter than I was before Christmas.
