Friday, January 30th, 2009

I read this today and couldn’t believe it. That’s how many crisps (chips if you’re American) that gets consumed whilst people watch the Super Bowl, that’s a shit load of crisps! Lets do a little maths with that.

Heart Attack Grill – Worlds Only Honest Restaurant

Wednesday, January 28th, 2009

I sometimes laugh at TV chefs, with their half kilo of butter added to everything and most food dripping in oil and fat. They tell you it’s OK though because it’s fresh produce! It’s the same when you go our for a meal, because it’s freshly prepared then it’s not that bad for [...]

Common sense tells me that this should be quite good, isometric exercise

New Year Diet – Day 9

New Year Diet – Day 8

Tuesday, January 13th, 2009

One week down, one week to go. Yesterday I was on fire. I’d done an hour on the Wii before 10 o’clock! It was also a great day in terms of eating the right stuff. My prediction is that I will lose 3 pounds in the 2 weeks I’ve set myself. [...]

I’m sorry for not posting every day but it’s been a crazy weekend. As with so many of the best laid plans so often in life, life gets in the way! So my plan was to move office on Friday night, unfortunately due to a few technical problems this ended up taking much [...]
