Last night I bravely faced my first big challenge. I was to cook my lunch for today! The book contained a recipe for tomato soup. What an adventure! It included using the oven, the pan, lots of chopping and guess what… […] Read more

I am still quite sick and didn’t get much sleep. I had a day of important meetings ahead as well so we decided to skip the morning exercise. Yesterday night, Saggybutt had in wise foresight prepared tonight’s dinner, and she was also kind enough to prepare my breakfast and lunch to bring to work. […] Read more

After a week of extreme work load and a constant, ongoing battle with what appears to be a really nasty and truly persistent flu, yours truly, Mr Tubby, is back on track. I decided to start an actual diet, following a book. Which one it is will be revealed at the appropriate time in the future. Let’s begin by reporting that Saggybutt and I went to buy the necessary groceries to make the food as outlined in the diet book, and the bill was over $300 dollars. […] Read more

Today the weather didn’t play along with our regime of morning “walkies”. Whilst the sun was out when we ventured into the green park land of Kings Park, it completely took us by surprise just after we had passed the point of no return. […] Read more

Well it’s been a week and I’ve exercised every day! I didn’t really cut down on any of the foods that I like, au contraire! I ate all the foods I liked, including beer, pasta and ice-cream, but unlike previous times, I didn’t finish the whole 1 kg ice cream box in one go! […] Read more

Well it is Sunday, and I wasn’t so surprised when Saggybutt didn’t feel like joining me for our morning powerwalk. Claiming her day off, she preferred to stay in bed. It’s Sunday after all!

Undeterred, I did a bit of bench press and some feeble attempts at […] Read more

It was Friday night and I did have quite a few beers. After drinking, we even went as far as indulging with a fat doner kebab with chili/garlic sauce and big fat cup of big fries. Yummy! It’s the best kebab place in town, and sinning there like this is one of the true pleasures in life, it’s that good.
