So I put weight back at the weekend, but I think I figured that out

It's easier to lose weight when at work because there is structure, I treat the weekends as completely seperate and so while I behave at work at the weekend I lose it a little - this will not do

so starting ..well..now I treat every day like a work day in that I get up whenever breakfast and eat stuff of the same type and at the same kinda time - well see how that goes

Tmorrow I'm off for a day and I'm leaving the alarm set and will do a sorta work day - only insterad of work I'm gonna watch buffy, paint figures, re read and write out Boris (as I made an incredible cock up of things recently) - if only you could do this for a living

so tonight I've not been able to get on Faceboks as much as I wanted for no reason I can figure (the damn thing won't load most of the time) so sorry about that

Off to finish the day with south park

okay update

lost about 5.5 lbs this week (been shakey around the week I had off and backpedalled a bit but now marching on)

The blood sugar thing is coming along  (was a little shakey yesterday but soup solved that)

so thats working

walking more and forcefully, until Doctor gives go ahead for gym thats it for now but things are happening slowly

but this isn't just about me

the flat needs some attention what with health scares and realisation of how unfit I really am and things have been neglected but no more

Rob and MMM are giving me shelves which means the schedule thing can stay as I wanted but still Cooker main goal at the end of July

Thanks to Suse and Debs reminding me abviout that little carpet place in Arnold near the Robin I think the carpetting shall happen end of August/September time

If I get this stuff sorted by xmas I shall be happy

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Getting Kings of War this coming week got some people to agree to play round the flat so we'll see how that goes

Taking a brief break from reffing on Thursday and Brians doing a few weeks of Star Wars (WEG) which should be fun

erm

Still don't have a love life

Not sure I need one if I was to be honest, the lack of one sometimes gets to me but very rarely (been on my own for coming up on 19 years now guess I'm used to it)

All in all I think things are coming together nicely

Quick nod to previous post

Still doing and feeling better day by day (works still rubbish though)

Right no waffling on

Phase 1 end of July outfit kitchen properley - proper cooker, pans, spice racks and at least one doohickey I will put in a cupboard and never use

Phase 2 end of August SHELVING

Overall concerns - need to sort out floors and have a sneaking suspicion that I need a new bed
can't find a carpet website where it isn't going to cost me hundreds to get the place sorted but still looking

its a funny thing
I was unemployed for 13 years during the 80's and 90's and got used to things like not having breakfast and lunch

that was when I was younger, these days that means a lot of things

these days it means that after a day at work I feel like crap

this has been going on for a few years

when you don't eat right (in my case) you feel bad, that means tired, nervous, paranoid, physically ill, shaky and quite frankly hopeless

I didn't realise that would efect my outlook and behaviour  - net result is that I spend a lot of time being bummed out about things that in the final analysis don't really matter as much

Now thanks to MMM and Rob I realise that if I keep to a proper food plan I will be a normal life

It scare the hell out of me that I may have spent the last few years being an  asshole because I didn't eat enough apples

I now know after modifying my daily diet that I can be better

I have been today

I have said before that I would change my ways

I'm not doing that now

I'm just doing

restarted weight loss thing cause I screwed up last week but thats okay lesson learnt

found a band I'm going to listen a lot to Halestorm (I think on a minor level I wanted to go to download but didn't bother telling myself so making up for it

Last Post payday piss up I switched to cider for the night and I think it was nice especially when after asking Rob to pick a cider for me he came back with Green Goblin which is really nice

Been thinking about wargames again and the whole GW price thing and have come to a simple conclusion the scenery and most of the LOTR figs are okay but the mainstream WH and 40k stuff may just be too expensive to bother with - got some over the years and they get used in RPGs and stuff but thats about it

so what to do.......

Oh I know I got some Mantic stuff last year and Mark got me a load of figs for xmas - I dug them all out and found out that I have the following


Undead
15 zombies
40 Ghouls
74 Skeletons and 2 balefire catapults

Dwarves
25 Ironclads
20 Iron Watch
1 Iron Belcher (Siege Engine)

Elves
10 Scouts

10 Orcs

I have the pamphlet rules in the box set I got last year but the main rulebook is released on the 25/06/12

so seems clear really

Been falling into bad habits again

spending time worrying about the fact that time is slipping away it's annoying and caused by me not having enough to distract me so the new project is starting early

I writing a Middle Earth Pathfinder campaign

I want maps and stories and poetry (I may learn Calligraphy)

but the thing I want most is the right figure for the right job, luckily GW have not massively put up the LOTR minis (normal ones that is)

I have some figs already and as it's going to be ages until it gets run I have time to amass

all I know so far is that it's set in the fourth age and I have some vague ideas about villains (not the old villains but new and relatively shiny ones)

loads of reading, painting and plotting and it'll keep me occupied

Well, coming to the end of my break

Weight loss basically massive fail - a mixture of terrible weather, Monday when I couldn't get the enthusiasm to do anything and a massive alleergy thing at the end of the week and it was all a bit rubbish

Looking forward to getting back to work tomorrow just so I can get back on program

Went to the docs about my hernia and shoulder - hernia should be okay if I don't overdo any working out but wants it sorted anyway (howeve he has some doubts that they'd operate if I was at my current weight class so thats a bit dumb)

However he said the shoulder thing is probably a trapped nerve in my neck and it wouldn't be good to strain that so the gym thing is on hold for now

Been looking at increasing the walking thing to compensate for lack of gym and found that they have a 'health walk'  at the Victoria Embankment (which I've never been to)

http://www.nottinghamcity.gov.uk/CHttpHandler.ashx?id=8993&p=0

Was going to go this week but I may have drowned

So walking to and from work daily and trying something like the health walk on Saturdays maybe and see how that goes

Got some of the list done and some more to come today

I need to tighten things up and not be so distracted by things

WH 40K new edition is coming out on the 23rd by the looks of it so a perfect chance to jump on

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

REMOVED

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

So back to work tomorrow, back on the weight loss thing

Focussing on getting things moving with regards to what I want to do with my life as work, and occasional gaming isn't cutting it frankly

Basically ONWARD!!!!!!!
