Fat lazy git: Donsteppa

[quote]it nice running in the cold though if you have the right kit - the full tracksuit, wooly hat etc.[/quote]<br />
<br />
It's all good once you start, it's just getting motivated to get out the door in the first place 

[BartMan]

But it makes you feel superior, knowing that you are out their struggling away while all the other fat bastards are stitting down for their third helping of icecream...

Was just liught enough when I got home from work to entice me out for the bike to the lake/run round lake/bike home circuit. Took me about 5 minutes longer than it did back in March - now an hour all up <img src='http://www.daimenhutchison.com/invision/public/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/laugh.png' class='bbc_emoticon' alt='B)' /><br />

Another one of these tonight. About the same time, doing it earlier in the evening seems to slow down the bike part a bit with traffic.

Back on track this week with a couple of the bike to lake/run round it circuits. <br />
<br />
Helps that it's getting lighter at night. Also helps that I'm not coughing my lungs out everytime I move faster than a walk as I was for a couple of weeks there...

[Donsteppa]

Another one of those circuits on Friday and a touch game today. <br />
<br />
Not quite as manic as Bart up and down the sideline at the BoP vs. Manawatu game yesterday though  <img src='http://www.daimenhutchison.com/invision/public/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/laugh.png' class='bbc_emoticon' alt=':blink:' />

if the fuckers could hold the ball for more than one phase, it would make likfe a lot less mobile, that is for sure...

[Donsteppa]

Thwarted tonight. Just finished fixing a puncture in my bike. Had gone with Plan B when I found it flat and taken the wife's bike instead, but about 1.5k down the road the gears buggered up. <br />
<br />
Too lazy now to resume the exercise!

[Donsteppa]

Hmmm... still 83kgs but not particularly fit. <br />
<br />
That might be why there are no entries in here for about 3 and a half months  <img src='http://www.daimenhutchison.com/invision/public/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/laugh.png' class='bbc_emoticon' alt=';)' />

Don't worry Don, I add a post every now and then to lift my thread off the bottom of the page....that way lurkers notice who's "working out" with the threads near the top of the page <img src='http://www.daimenhutchison.com/invision/public/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/wink.png' class='bbc_emoticon' alt=';)' />

[Donsteppa]

Excellent, still around 82-83kgs despite the 800 tonnes of food that have been floaing round the place... though that may not last 

[BartMan]

you weight 80kgs, which is about the intake of food from Xmas day for Mr BartMan!!!  Overeating, gotta love it....  <img src='http://www.daimenhutchison.com/invision/public/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/wink.png' class='bbc_emoticon' alt=';)' />

The trick will be not to eat the multiple boxes of chocolate currently in the fridge too quickly

Goodluck!..we got given about 6 boxes of chocolates,including those amazing boxes of Cadbury's Favourites"..and not the small boxes but the big farking ones..

[Donsteppa]

Eeexcellent. The scales stopped at 80kgs for about the first time in 4 years.

[Paekakboyz]

good stuff mate!! how far off your target weight now?

[Donsteppa]

Would like to get back down to around 75kgs, but anything below 80 is good for a start.

jeez, wont recognise you at the next bay game, maybe youll need one of those mini mafia shirts...

[BartMan]

that's the problems with you little people - you don't even notice the weight loss - you looked like the standard DOnsteppa to me over the weekend!!

[willie the weka]

Steppa, agree Rototuna is a true test of will power, Jesters, pub, KFC, Bakery, Fish n Chips.............. <br />
<br />
Mate, 75Kg's wot's up with that? You taking up being a jockey?

[Donsteppa]

75kgs might be too distant a goal at the moment, have been stuck on 80-81kgs for about 4 weeks. Fittest I've been in years though.  :happy:
