17 days in

It has hardly been an Olympian effort but so far my 100 days isn't going as badly as it normally does .

So far I have

Given up spuds with every meal

Taken to parking miles away from work so I have to walk every day up the hills of Stockport

Only been out on the beer once

Made my lunches a lot smaller

Given up pastry , pies sausage rolls etc

Cut back on Chocolate

The good news is my work pants now feel a lot looser .

However I still need to

Cut down on bread

Stop snacking in the evening

And get out on my bike , once the mornings warm up

But 83 days to sort that out

Just getting in the swing of actually updating my blog .

It's now March 6th so I have 22 days left of slobbishness until my 100 day diet starts .

I'm just a little worried at the moment that I seem to be eating and drinking that much that my starting weight might have been my goal weight 2 months ago Ha Ha

Am going to have a practise next week and try and keep my intake down to a minimum .

100 day diet and fitness campaign MK 2300

For fear I am really turning into this I have set myself a target for the 2300 time .

The plan is that I return form Gran Canaria on 21st March 2011 , I will give myself a week to recover .

On Monday 28th March it will be 100 days until my 49th birthday what timing to get myself sorted.

So that's No Bread , Spuds, Kebabs or Beer

And exercise everyday !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Wonder how much weight I can actually lose am hoping for 4 stone that's 42 lbs less than 1lb every 2 days it's a tall order and will take a fair bit of dedication but hell it's only 100 days .

I will blog on a daily basis

National Disgrace

We have young men and women being slaughtered in Afghanistan facing cuts in their equipment who go about their job without a murmur of protest.
You ask students to pay for their own education most of them doing pointless degrees to avoid real work and look what they do .
Come on Plod for a change do your job you have the pictures make some examples of these thugs .

Recruitment

Facebook: "So glad I am out of recruitment at the moment , seeing a well known construction agency advertising their managers job for what must be the 6th time in 2 years makes you realise that companies still have ridiculous expectations.
Maybe they should have a look at themselves , their recruitment process and Regional Manager and not the individual they hire.
( Ok I got rejected by them 2 Years ago and I do hold grudges )"

I'm as Mad as Hell

On my soap box ..... I spend all day dealing with people who are in their 50's worked all their lives been laid off and now have no chance , what do we tell them, go work in a call centre !!
Unskilled women who's husbands have been laid off and they apply for a kitchen assistants job just to make ends meet to be told there have been 100's of applications . Retail stores who need staff who refuse to offer longer than an 8 hours a week contracts so they aren't liable for any holiday pay or benefits to staff but when they are busy expect staff to be flexible and available for any hours they insist they work or they get replaced .
Come along, sign off, lose your housing benefit oh and next week you may only earn £36.00 but never mind I'm sure the baliff will understand .George Osbourne wanted you to take the first job that came along .
The country and companies are run by C@nts who think "The Apprentice" is the way to do it .
No one seems to give a shit these days that it's lives they are fucking with and people aren't fucking statistics .
Whats another half a million public sector employees on the dole , loads of jobs out there ( call centres always need staff, debt management it's BOOM time )
What will people do what the French do , NO we will put the kettle on have a cup of tea and let the fucking tabloids tell us what to do and how to think.
Now thats a RANT , I'm MAD as HELL and we shouldn't have to take it .

Useless

Just about sums up my recent memory for updating my Blog

Been busy on a training course so haven't really had time , which is a poor excuse but the best I can come up with .

Have learnt a lot over the last couple of weeks about peoples needs and barriers when it comes to finding employment and hopefully I can share over the next few weeks .

For now this is it another silly photo op
