Fatbastarding: NTA log
-
Yeah I don't know the cal count exactly - dinner kind of makes it hard to calculate. But I'll definitely be checking out the pre-packed stuff next time. Apples barely count of course...<br />
<br />
In any case, I backed off on the dinner stuff the last couple of nights - we went out and I had Kangaroo salad entree (the blue vein cheese was bloody strong but in limited quantity) and salmon for mains. No dessert and Bundy + Diet Coke <img src='http://www.daimenhutchison.com/invision/public/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/smile.png' class='bbc_emoticon' alt=':)' /><br />
<br />
With watching my eating today I'm down two kg from last time I checked. -
-
Haven't exercised basically besides the 1km walk to/from the station most work days. However, I haven't overeaten that much either. Down to 112kg according to today's weigh-in <img src='http://www.daimenhutchison.com/invision/public/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/smile.png' class='bbc_emoticon' alt=':)' />
-
A touch of the flu, plus this really weird abdominal pain I've had for the last two weeks, has curbed exercise somewhat, but also my eating habits. I was 111kg on the scales this morning, which is pretty ace.<br />
<br />
The abdo pain ranges from nearly nothing to bloody awful, and the other day I had the sweats and faintness so went to the doc. He got full bloodwork and ahem other samples. Results today I hope... But that would mean going to the doctor this afternoon, and it IS my last day with beloved Foxtel

No excuse for staying inside then instead of exercising outside..Nick im onto redoing your rugby dvds,should hopefully have them ready to be posted AGAINÂ
after the weekend.(fingers crossed they get there this time) -
Thanks mate <img src='http://www.daimenhutchison.com/invision/public/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/smile.png' class='bbc_emoticon' alt=':)' /><br />
<br />
took out the tape measure this morning:<br />
<br />
Chest 129cm<br />
Gut 117cm<br />
Butt 124cm<br />
<br />
Lost 1cm off both chest and gut, but am generally feeling lighter :nta Must have lost some muscle tone since stopping exercise. I should do something about that. -
Fuck. Hopped on the scales at the doctor's this morning and they read 117kg. Even allowing for the fact I was fully clothed and had already eaten breakfast, that still means the scales at home are about 3kg on the generous side <img src='http://www.daimenhutchison.com/invision/public/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/sad.png' class='bbc_emoticon' alt=':)' />

Truly, there is no word better than: <br />
<br />
fluffybunnies.<br />
<br />
The fluffybunnies, that is, who stole my bike from the train station, where I left it reasonably secure, chained to the immovable post of a bust stop. Obviously, no length of steel cable is unbreakable, no lock ultimately secure, for persons who wish to steal a bike. I suspect they broke the lock as I could find no part of the cable there at all, not even a sign that someone had taken the bolt cutters to it. Though solidly constructed, t wasn't a particularly big lock, being designed only to deter the casual passer-by who thought they'd help themselves to my bike.<br />
<br />
In one way, its not really that expensive a bike, and for a $400 base cost I suppose I got my money out of it. What shits me is the $200 I recently spent on a strengthened rear wheel and two new tyres to replace the original knobblies, and the tubes I bought just last weekend in anticipation of getting myself underway with exercise this very night.<br />
<br />
Fuck I'm angry.<br />
<br />
Next step: Put a call in to the local bike shops and pawn brokers to be on the lookout for my bike. For you see, I have the Serial number of the frame, and should any little fucker try to off it for cash or trade, I will bring them down. To guarantee success, I am preparing a flyer run around said train station and local environs, promising that whomsoever has done unto me will have done unto them with double measure.<br />

Now use that pent up aggression you have and go do some excercise. A nice long ride perhaps.<br />
<br />
<br />
ohhh...<br />
<br />
sorry...<br />
<br />
how about a walk?<br />

<br />
Nod, that was obscene and nasty! <img src='http://www.daimenhutchison.com/invision/public/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/wink.png' class='bbc_emoticon' alt=':)' /> <br />
<br />
Commiserations on the loss of said bike Nicko. Won't the thieving fluffybunnies be able to grind off the serial no. or some shit? I suspect you should start planning for a newie, at any rate. -
On examination of the site in daylight, it appears they undid the cable clamps I was using to secure the padlock loops. Indicates they had some time to achieve the theft as those little fuckers were done up tight! Further investigation of the site indicates they may have been drinking looking at the number of VB stubbies lying around.<br />
<br />
virgil - the excess is more than the bike's original RRP, and probably equal to its current value even with the new parts.<br />
<br />
Noddy - if you weren't such a weedy little bastard these days I'd come up there and nut you! <img src='http://www.daimenhutchison.com/invision/public/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/smile.png' class='bbc_emoticon' alt=':)' /><br />

Yes if they're smart they probably will grind it off. If they're even smarter they'll change the wheels and tyres over with other bikes they own/steal, as its a 21-speed and therefore a pretty common setup.<br />
<br />
The most fucked thing about it is - if I catch them in possession of a bike with my frame and the numbers ground off, I have no recourse. If I gave them the thrashing they surely deserve, then [b]I[/b] get done for an assault charge.<br />
<br />
A mate of mine rang this morning and was loud enough down the phone for Mrs TA to hear the words "new bike then?". Brows were furrowed, heads were shaken. Unlikely to get a new bike out of this all things considered. If I did, it would be a bit more upmarket than the old one and I sure as shit wouldn't be leaving it in public. But that too is unlikely.<br />
<br />
I'll file a police report - for all the good it'll do. That way if it turns up at a pawn broker something might happen. Local bike shops will have the details shortly by fax. Short of donning the black jumpsuit and balaclava, and sneaking around the backyards of the entire suburb, there is really not much else but to keep an eye out. -
Its all you can do really, file a report get in touch with local pawn shops etc, a long shot but better than doing nothing <img src='http://www.daimenhutchison.com/invision/public/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/wink.png' class='bbc_emoticon' alt=':)' /><br />
<br />
Would you consider getting sumthing else to use a fitness aid? -
I had something else as a fitness aid. Now she's pregnant :nta<br />
<br />
I think its back to pulling on the footy boots and going for sprints/jogging around the local oval. I should pull my finger out go back to either touch or fulltime rugby. I've found a couple of clubs I could go to training with after work, and while it might result in the odd injury it would bring my fitness up quick smart... -

If I where you (and had the space) I'd consider buying a Concept2 rower.
