Fat busting/Ab circle
-
tuesday woke up pretty crook. felt like a stomach bug at first. as the day progressed i was feeling more of a muscular pain in the lower right abs. vomiting happily every couple of hours! great fun trying to sleep that night.<br />
<br />
finally decided to look something up on the net symptoms wise at 4am after serious discomfort. everything pointed to appendicitis. straight into hospital and on the money.<br />
<br />
appendix now gone, can't do jack shit for 3 weeks!<br />
<br />
<br />
hospital food is not fit for pigs!! -
[quote name='BartMan']good work Doctor Raz, thought you might have done some more research and operated yourself too....!![/QUOTE]<br />
<br />
was a fluke really that i just looked up the first thing that popped in to my head. plus im a poofter and went straight to the potentially fatal sickness.<br />
<br />
dr's just rolled their eyes at me when i said how i came to being in ED. they hate self diagnosis eh. my mates a dr but he was on call and not answering so i could have had a pros opinion.<br />
<br />
a little annoyed i had to stay an extra night. my heart rate spiked during the surgery but as i was told this morning it was instrument failure.<br />
<br />
<br />
@bart met a 76yo bb in the bed next to me. the guy looked 50! had all the nurses running after him. -
have ballooned to 104kg after putting in some pretty good work over the last few months. just through inactivity. good thing is having to have antibiotics(which smell really yuck and therefore make me smell yuck too) with every meal has got my eating habits more regular. i have always had problems with skipping breakfast so at least i've had that from the experience.

First day of full slog. Went on a run this morning and then a bush walk with the boy afterward. Can't use the ab circle yet because the stomach is still a bit tender.<br />
<br />
Managed to get a good deal on some weights from an old school mate - 100kgs, curl bar, barbell, dumbbells, bench and some other bits and pieces for $200. Pretty stoked as its all in mint cond.<br />
<br />
Initially my weight went up quite sharply a fair bit on restricted exercise. But I cut it back a bit last week so am hovering around 103kg. My weight during the course of the day fluctuates considerably though.<br />
<br />
I can lose/put as much as 4kgs in a day according to my new scales. -

That is a fair swing mate!! you must do some epic shits lol!! that ad on tv about hydration with the AB's shows between 1-2kg being lost after a hard out training session. Interesting that your scales show that much variance... are you weighing yourself in the same clothes etc? -

I know mate it's not normal at all. I shit you not though as recently as yesterday I woke up 105kg by the time I was in bed I was 101.8kg. Always in boxer shorts. As far as craps go I don't have any basis for comparison lol. Though I did once walk into a stall and was confronted with a log the size of my arm(oh how I wish I was joking) and Im not dropping that everyday.<br />
<br />
It's not a consistent weight gain or loss, every now and then. -
Amazing what some folk can produce! moving on!... seems hard to find/afford scales that give the same weight reading. Seems like every set you check out at Briscoes/Ware Whare/Farmers all give you diff readings, even when you tune them in a bit. Also happens at my gym. There are two scales that have 2-3 kg difference in readings. Not a huge amount, but with my gym subscription I want some supa-medical mofo scales! <br />
<br />
I've been told you should weigh yourself in the morning in as little clothing as you are comfortable in. Weigh yourself at the same time, and in the same 'outift' each day. Consistency in measurement or something similar. -
Drop into the nearest Jenny Craig - we got our scales from there when the Mrs was JC'ing. They are on the money with our trainers scales too, which is great. <br />
<br />
Just weigh yourself on the same scales every time, at the same time of day. But daioly you are wasting your time - a weeky readin is what you need. Daily - water retention etc all play a part. Have a big fatty salty meal, and you will hold onto your water, eat a bucket of salad with no dressing, and you won't be retaining etc. SO to get real readings, you would need to be eating the same fod etc too!!! -
Hard work,instant reward!<br />

Went for a run along the hutt river late yesterday. dropped the car at lower hutt and ran up river to taita. Its all low impact pavement running but a fair hike. Best part is the end. Took an inner tube and a pump in my pack, a little bit to lug but thats all part of it. Pumped up the inner tube jumped in the river and floated lazily back yo my car! How cool is that? Just don't fall asleep!<br />
<br />
mapped out the run for those interested.<br />

<br />
edit: as with my last mapped run it only allows me to map streets, all of my run was on the stop bank above the river. great scenery so far from a boring run. -
My bro and I used to do it years ago when we trained together. When he buggered off to Ing-a-land I just stopped doing it. <br />
<br />
Was sitting there watching the young fulla with his floaties on in the pool and it just hit me.<br />
<br />
Will be a regular thing again for sure. -
[quote name='Hooroo']It's a shame you timed it for the end of Summer! Sounds like a cracking reward for a hard/long run[/QUOTE]<br />
<br />
I thought the same thing as soon as I got back to my car. Im hoping for a typical late wellington summer though, as I'm yet to see it... -
[quote name='BartMan']fuck year - a couple of bottle of beer too - now that would be prefrect. Maybe you need a running partner. One to carry the beers, and one for the tubes and pumps![/QUOTE]<br />
<br />
As much as I like the sound of that finding my self at Matiu Somes Island is what would likely happen. Im a light weight after exercise. Jeez I likely end up one of those stupid Darwin Awards tards. -
Spoke to a few guys Im playing rugby with this season about coming on the run with me. Last night we came up with 7 guys on a shorter run to accommodate the fatties. This morning I got emails from all over the show and now its up to 13 guys and 3 of them aren't even in the team. <br />
<br />
Jeez if it was a more scenic run in some rougher terrain I could charge bloody prices....
