Weight Day Friday

OK so another update n the whole weight loss thing.  I am now 22 stone 11.9lb, a loss of 1.7lbs, not bad considering it was Saturday of last week that I weighed in on.  However I did not realise that I also achieved another landmark today with the weight loss. My body Fat is now less that 50% of my total body weight, and if I read the information correctly I actually lost about 4lb in fat but gained 2lb in non fat (ie muscle).  If I get time I will have to devise a way to reflect this information in some sort of line chart so that the information can be displayed graphically.

A really odd thought now, in order for me, in some sort of fantasy land, to get down to 10 stone 7lb (which I was when I was 20) I would actually have to lose muscle mass as well as fat,  something I actually would prefer not to do, so it obviously makes that weight undesirable.  I will be more than happy to just get below 20 stone, and then I will work towards below 17 stone, and then below 14, but that is a very long way away, and I need to make my targets realistic and achievable.  It would be nice to be below 20 stone by Christmas and amazing to be below 18 by my 40th Birthday, but to be honest as long as I am under 20 stone by my 40th Birthday I will be very happy with myself.

Cloud shaped dreams

A very short poem that needed to get out of my head for some reason……

Cloud Shaped Dreams

Just lift your gaze up towards the sky,
Let your mind drift with hardly a care.
Soon will those vapourous clouds of mist
Allow your dreams too, very briefly, be seen.

The weight of it all, mmmmm

Well down to Tescos again today with my mother (48 bottles of Pop, where does she put it?) and I weighed in on the allmighty machine of knowing. After feeding it a small sacrifice of a odd shaped piece of flattened metal it made a proclamation as to my weight.

I am now exactly 22 stone 13.6 pounds, now I know we are only talking about what can only be about 6 ounches but hey, they are my 6 ounches so lay off. As far as I am concerned I am officially into the 22stone region now, especially when you consider that I weighed my clothes last week at 5lb, so if you took that off my total then I would be close to 22 1/2 stone, and that I really, really like. As a crazy prediction at this rapid rate of 2lb a week (4 over the last two weeks) then I will be hitting the top end of 19stone in about 21 weeks, so just in time for Christmas. Now, that would be a nice present for myself

PIxel update – 7.15am

Well I just went outside one more time with Pagan to see if we could find Pixel, luckily Pagan must of figured it out for me as he started meowing, suddenly I heard a return mew from pixel, so drawing close to the sound we managed to locate pixel as he came rushing out from behind the next door fence where his mother had left him.  So now they are both upstairs with me while I decide exactly what I am going to have to do with the pair of them and their mother.

But hey, at least Pixel is back

Where is Pixel?

I hope the little furball fids its way home.

Is it fate, or is it just random coincidence.  my son walked into my bedroom at about 4.20 wanting to sleep in my bed after a bad dream.  I, then, decided to nip downstairs to visit the bathroom and discovered pagan sitting there ll alone, no mother or brother in sight.  I then spent the next hour in the last remnants of the night trying, in vain, to find pixel, with pagan clutched tightly to me, after stopping his mother from hiding him somewhere outside.

Its a bit of a dilema, as I sit here , holding a sleeping kitten, hoping that Tabby will bring Pixel home.

The strange thing of it all is, why did I go downstairs?

random meeetings in town on a friday night

Wow what an interesting night I had in town tonight.  I went to the Office wih Jan and met Wyn there, after two songs by an awfull band we decided to go to the Hanberry.  Once there I bumped into Lee and Kate and Steve, I might add, kissing them all, lol.  I also bumped into two other people from Virgin Media at hanburrys. We also met up with Jan’s daughter Kate nad her friend Julie.  I also asked scotish andy to play fleetwood mac – Rhiannon, which he agreed too do.

After a while we retreated back to the Office after finding out that Crowleys was closed.  I once again bumped into Lee, Kate and Steve and had another round of kisses off them all, ok granted it was only on the cheek and I suppose they were only humouring me as I was a wee bit drunk, but do I give a damn.  At the end of the day they are still my friends.  Half way through the night I started sounding a tad bit scottish with my voice nearly gone all together as I had a bit of a cold.

So heres to enjoying yourself everyone.  it seems that, at the end of the day, I have a few more friends than I thought I really had, and that is a nice thing.

So heres to me, signing off

Byeeeeee
