Huh - and now its the last day of November!

Well - what have I been doing?

Not writing on my blog....

I spend my work day alternating between actual work, and reading stuff of interest on the net.  I have developed a specific interest in a few writers/thinkers.  Whom have a specific interest in espousing the issues around theists.  In other words, why shouldn't an atheist outlook be the standard mode of life as we know it.

And in reading and listening to these people I have concluded that we (us - this mammalian race that we are) would be better served by being atheist.  That is: To not believe in a super-natural being.

So, that is what I have been doing with my mind.

Body wise - I have lost another 3 kgs this last month.  The loss-rate is slowing.  I would like to get to the low 84kg mark and then keep it there.  Another 2.5kgs to go.  Probably take until the holidays to achieve this.

What do I do to get this weight off.  "Its all about the food"  Almost.  About 75% of weight loss is food related - in my opinion.  So I eat healthy all day: a balance of proteins, fruit and vege.  At night I eat what we cook for the whole family and then make sure I have small portions.

The evenings are hard.  A couple of times per week I will have wine with our meal, snacks, etc.  Generally this acts as treat and the weight still comes off.

Exercise: Running (2-3 times per week - One long 60+min, plus shorter 25min).  Free weights in Gym (4-5 times per week) Group Classes(Circuit Training 1-2 times), and Swimming (twice per week)
Seems like a lot, but it helps my mental attitude.

...and that's what I have been doing...

Wow - November already!! - Who knew??

Its that time of the year when Christmas starts to seem close enough to feel real.

Locally we have a few short weeks, and a party style feel to things as the Melbourne Cup plus our own "Show Day" rolls through.
Thoughts of the rest period around Christmas means that it is harder to get motivated to get the usual day to day stuff done. 
I'm doing my work admin so that fee invoices can be generated.  Procrastination is running amok, hence the post to my blog... Capping this off is the sudden arrival of warmer days and the harsh reality that our heatpump (now broken) will not be fixed by the landlord - argh the joys of free rent
