Wii Fat
You see I see them as a drug like smoking, I beat smoking and have been smoke free for 2 years now so this should be a doddle.
So have already planned out my year and 1 of my goals is to lose 14llbs by the time im 40 which is in november, I am going to book myself into yoga this week as after doing 2 classes on my wii fit i like it, so am going to try it.
Have been doing 1hrs exercise every day over the last 4 days and have genuinely seen some improvement already my body mass index has gone from 31.56 to 30.41 and have lost 3llbs already.
So heres to being able to wear superdry t-shirts ( their close fitting ) and not being scared of getting on an aeroplane and not being able to get in the seat ( I hope I never get like that )
So for all those who want to get in shape, dont keep saying it GO AND DO IT, small steps each day will keep you motivated dont push it too fast. So if you are like me and getting towards that 40 mark just do what makes you feel good as you have the confidence of the last 40 years of living so you should have done most things and got the t-shirt, but dont think that cos your getting old you have to retire from all the good stuff to, why should all the young people get to do it. So lets hear it for the 35 somethings and make 2010 the year for achieving. As for me, my Wii Fat board is gonna wish it never called me obese, the little f****r.

hmmm...
I thought about long and hard about the coming year and what should be my goals this year...... there are far too many so I thought i would list them and let my friends decide for me and have told them only to choose 3 at the most as i will never be able to do all of them. so here goes....
1. To spend more time with my kids ... I have 3 girls all of mixed ages and being a guy can be hard as have tried integrating some boys activities with them but they still do too much girly stuff for me to feel fully bonded with them.
2. To lose 14llbs in 1 year. this is my biggest challenge as im going to be 40 in november and of course i want to look good and for people to say i look good for my age
3. To walk coast to coast in england. after walking the the whole width of the isle of wight last year i was quite surprised at how far i could push myself after all that was 26 miles so would like to do another challenge like that and thought why not from 1 side of england to other.
4. To finally get the car i dream and deserve it would have to be an aston martin or a mercedes brabus.
5. To have a fantastic 40th and go back to vegas for it or just have a big party or do both.
6. To have more time with my friends, i never seem to have enought time lately especially for those who have known me since i was a little boy.
7. To have a holiday just with my wife, for years now we have always had some sort of company and of course there are the odd nights out we go out on our own but remember when we went to paris to the moulin rouge or to rome to see the colliseum, i miss my wife when we wre like that so am determined to take her away again just the 2 of us as she is the one that is always there sorting things out so she deserves to be pampered now and again.
8. To have another child, yes i still long to have a boy and havent given up hope of having 1 more just have to persuade my wife.
9. To eat more healthily.... this is a big one as i try my hardest to be good, we always eat fresh food and cook from scratch most nights so i would say that we are quite good but i still have to fight my weight so please i need help on this one.
10. To do something different every month that i would never have done before, i always feel it is important to try anything once except voting lib dem or doing crack so would like some suggestions on this, not too expensive either.
11. The are a series of open water swims which i fancy doing, they are sponsored by british gas and the are call ed the Great Swims, i fancy doing the one in Lake Windemere in Lake District so if anyone fancy one of these let me know as always loved swimming since i was young and still do
If you feel the same as me that you feel that you need a target for the year and cant really function without 1 then make a list like this and see how many you can do after all it focuses the mind and you might even surprise yourself, I have already pledged my support to one of my friends to help him lose 42llbs this year and get him up his first mountain which i cant wait to get up again.
Lastly I will try and keep my personal blog more up to date as i only seem to have time to do the work one but will try my very hardest to publish something at least once a week.
Good luck to you all who have set targets and help me with mine.
