When I asked NN for this blog I prepared a list of things I’d like to share. There were videos, consideration on webtvs, and so on. It was a practical, old fashioned to-do-list. And I said to myself end of august is always a good moment to start a project (in fact a lot of friends had splitted frome their couple :-P). The problema now, is I’m working too much.
Ok: I wasn’t seriuos… I’m working as usual (maybe just feeling a bit more pressed after the summer). Reality is I started to go jogging. And I’m not joking…
I thoght, as a lazy boy, that I’d never liked to make any kind of exercise, except for reaching the fridge for a new beer. But one day I “stumbled” on a mirror while naked. And I thought the mirror should be one of those mirror that produces dizzy and weird effects in the amusement parks. But it was a normal mirror and all (in the precise meaning of “all”) that I saw was me.
Excuse me for this banal and personal reflection. Now I’m sliding my feet into my running shoes…
Marco – my sister has a foolproof way of deciding whether one is too fat or not. Stand naked in front of a mirror, and then brush your teeth, vigorously. If things are jiggling about that have no business jiggling about, then you’re too fat.
If that’s the case, might I interest you in the Henry Gee Work-Out Video?
My step-by-step method is so easy that anyone can do it, irrespective of their fitness training. No exhausting workouts! No ridiculous dieting regimes!
1. Lie down on your back in a darkened room, with your eyes closed.
2. Open one eye, and then close it again.
3. Do the same for the other eye.
4. Repeat steps 2 and 3 until you fall asleep.
Ugh, who wants muscly eyelids? And how can those of us with electric toothbrushes tell if we’re too fat?
@henry: thank you. tomorrow I’ll try your sister’s method. this evening I’m too tired. (Of course: I went jogging…!)
@Cath: good question, good question…
That’s exactly what happened to me a year or so ago! Well done mate!
And how are your feelings in front of a mirror today? Or, better: how is your jiggling? Better?
Are you considering Mr.Gee’s step-by-step method? :)
Better, as long as I stick to my plan… eat well, smoke
noneless, run frequently and fight hard in my Muay Thai classes >:) 1000+ sit-ups/week gives you a good feeling about yourself…I’m making jam.
It’s very tiring. You lose weight.
… but you make up for it later.
my mum makes good jam
I like jam…
But where is the secret of losinf weight in making jam?
It’s a secret! Duh!
Marco> lots of stirring the jam… and watching it simmer on the stove ;)
I recently bought a new pair of runner shoes to make up for the jiggling parts that seemed to grow. After the initial shock my body has decided to kind of like it. If it is not too hot outside…
