Mid November Madness

I’ve been thinking about trying something different with the blog this week. I thought that I’d try a video blog. However when I tried to do it on my phone, I looked awful! So it’s back to the old typed blog. If you guys would like me to try a video blog one week then let me know!

This last week has been pretty decent, from the last weigh in on Tuesday night to perhaps Friday night /  Saturday morning, I have been fairly on plan most of the time. I did have two evenings out and a Carvery though.


Friday Nights Crazy Gang


It was Skindred on Friday night which was great but I was driving so I didn’t have any alcohol at all. I had lots of Diet Coke and a pint or two of Guinness 0.0 but it was still a late night. We went back to Fuel Rock Club after the gig and watched Benji do a DJ set. By the time I got home, after I’d taken Birchy, Sarah, Alex, Amy and Gemma home I didn’t actually hit the hay until about 3:30 in the morning.

Saturday was probably the worst day that I had last weekend, although it was a lovely day! I had a great time. Went to flight club and had a lovely afternoon with FB and her mates playing darts for her 40th birthday. We had pizza, we had lots of Guinness, we had Prosecco! I’m not a big prosecco fan, to be fair. I had a glass, but that was about it.

We then went from there to The Grand and had a few more beers there. Then off to Fuel Rock Club and basically there till I don’t know X o’clock in the morning! So two nights on the trot for me which I’m finding increassingly difficult! It was about 4am by the time I got to sleep so it was a pretty hefty couple of days.

Sunday I didn’t do much. Basically I was I was in bed till I think maybe about one o’clock then sort of decided that you know I need a carvery!


FB’s Birthday


Monday was good, Tuesday I was in work and work’s never the greatest but there’s a little bit of exercise during the day. I’ve got a walk to the office from the bus stop, not much but a little more than I would do normally. I went out at lunchtime and went to HMV. Got myself an album to listen to later and then got myself home.  Late getting home ’cause I had to stay an extra 25 minutes to clear up and mop up some work that had come in late and then from there, was late onto the bus, late getting back to the house.

Basically, I had two minutes in the house, enough time to grab my bag, feed Ozzy and then shoot off out to Slimming World. All in all I suppose it’s been a fairly decent week.


The tale of the scale.

So again, I think this week has been one way and that’s a gain. I wasn’t going into Slimming World with any sort of hopes of being able to lose because of what I thought was quite a hefty night on Saturday what with the beers and with the food and and various other bits and pieces.

So when I got to Slimming World, it was quite pleasing that I registered a 3.5lb loss on the scales of doom.

That’s now 5lbs lost in two weeks that has got me over that little blip where I put three lbs on that one week and so. I’m actually two lbs over that and fantastically still on target to lose the 2 stone before I get to go to visit Scotland at the end of the year.

Who knows this could now be well maybe 2 1/2 stone by the time we get there that would be quite interesting.


And now for something completely different!

This week I have been mesmerised by Sleep Token. 


Next week on Fatboy Slimmer…

Actually, this week there is very little happening so my only danger is me! I’ve not got anything planned for the weekend. No gigs, no events so no hangovers and no drinking vast amounts of Guinness. This will be the first weekend to myself for ages. 

The penultimate F1 race is in Las Vegas this weekend so that promises to be a good one. That will keep me going and so long as I can trust myself to relax and switch off then hopefully much goodness will come from the Scales of Doom next week.

Having said that, I will need to find somewhere to weigh on either Monday evening or Wednesday afternoon as I’m going to see The Prodigy at the recently renamed Motorpoint next Tuesday so can’t go to the normal group.

Anyway, thanks for reading again. I’ll catch you next week. 🙂
