bits and bobs

well half way through the thrid week of the new year and how is everyone going and are we keeping to our resloutions we made at the start of the year, mine is going okay ive already lost the weight i put on over crimbo and settling into my newish diet and seems to be working okay its been a little hard at times i had a craving last ngiht for a kebab but after half anhour of my belly rumbling like mad i wasnt hungry or even wanted a kebab,

iam working hard at the gym getting back to my cardio fittness times on the tread mill the cross trainer and other machines to which they were in november so iam quite happy, ive not had a beer since sunday nite but goign to have a pint either this evening or tomorrow evening nothing mad as i dont realy want another hangover like i did monday,

i have also been given a calorie counting book it tells you quite a bit about how much junk is in some foods, i was suprised to see that a pint of beer is better than a mars bar and also a pint of beer is better thana bag of crisps, a even bigger shocker was how fatty a maccy d's meals are a quarter pounder with cheese medium fries and a medium milkshake is 1500 calories i dont realy go to maccy d's so iam not to bortherd but still a shocker to see how much junk some foods are,

other news the 1st day out of the new year is planned for this weekend most likely iam off to dovedale for a walk on the hills there will be plently of pics taken as well not been to dovedale for a while i used to go quite often one thing i do like going to dovedale is stepping over the stepping stones to cross the stream climb the hill and watch people cross the stepping stones and nearly falling in to the stream, either cos they cant walk across the stones properly or that they have a dog on a lead and the dog goes nuts try's to run off and drags the owner in the the stream, but hardly no one falls in tho times ive sat on top of the hill and watched hoped some silly sod would fall into the stream and no one has maybe this year i may get my wish
