PUSH IT TO THE LIMIT!!!!
14th June 2012
Well here it is. Judgement day for me. Before I even start this let me introduce myself. I'm David. I'm 41 years old and I work in security which means most of my active work time is standing in one place and trying to look imposing. This may sound sexy as hell to the untrained ear but it does not burn calories. Combined with 12 hour shifts and boredom levels which go beyond a Nicholas Cage movie this only leads to one thing....EAT THE TIME AWAY!!!
When I come home from a long boring shift I like to do either one of three things.
INTERNET!
BEER REVIEWING!
METAL!
Now you could say the energy of the third item on this list could promote metabolism and weight loss due to throwing yourself around and headbanging. However, I am talking about knackered from a twelve hour shift metal which consists of clicking on Youtube and then posting in on Facebook. This might burn about .00001 of a calorie due to the multiple mouse clicks which take place but not enough to shift the 20 stone mass I have accumulated thus far.
Yes.......
20 FUCKING STONE!!!
I have never been this heavy in my life and a lot of it has been down to a combination of stress, bad eating and long hours. I cannot even walk up to the shops without my ankles and lower back hurting. Hardly fit for battle am I? Also I have been hitting the ale quite a lot over the last year and this has not helped at all. Therefore I will be dropping my reviews to one or two a week. No beer other than the reviews. More water. More cardio. More weight training. Healthier food.
So with the aid of this blog and hopefully some support from my mates I am hoping to shift this unwanted armour which is making me into the shambles of a man I am at the moment.
This morning I went to my local health shop and spent nearly twenty quid on Triple Strength Omega 3 capsules and Dietry Fibre pills as well as Iron, Magnesium and Evening Primrose Oil which is officially the gayest supplement to ask for in the Universe.
I have also started hitting the weights and doing a bit more walking but this is the first day of my regime so you can imagine how I feel at this moment. Like a well kicked ball bag.
Anyway I hope to be a bit more entertaining in this blog and I will be posting a photo of my fat arse every now and again so you can see the pounds flying off (I hope).
FOR ODIN!!
I know the feeling I have been going to the gym for 2 years now and I am stonger but all the beer has added to much paunch. Keep up the good work
ReplyDeleteCheers for the reply Kevin. I think I will still drink beer as I love it but I just need to do more exercise, eat healthier and keep taking those supplements when I can.
