Project Weight 009: 2016 - JAN - 25



Hi everyone,
Welcome to part 9 of a series of blogs about my weight.
My starting weight was 105.5 Kilograms and my ideal weight, considering my length of 1.85 meters would be 85 Kilograms.
Currently, I would be pleased to hang around the 92 kilgrams area but my main goal is to reach under 100 Kilograms.  

Week 8 has passed, what have I done?

- NOT Walking the dog regularly.
- Avoiding carbs as much as possible.

Birthday week  !
I did not reach my first goal, getting below 100 kilograms, before my birthday. ;(
However.....I did lose some weight again so all is not lost. Combine this fact with a rather unhealthy week with some celebatory pastry, I think I did rather well.... :D

Time for some facts:
This past 7 days I have:

Walked 1044 meters
In 0 hours, 15 minutes and 25 seconds.
At an average speed of 4.1 Kilometers per hour
Resulting in burning 88.8 Kcal
Using 1492 Steps !
(this will be a low,low monthly total)
I continue at 100.2 Kg on 18-01-2016,
that's 1.0  Kilograms LESS that previous week !
AND that's 5.3 Kilograms LESS than when I started!

Later in the new year I will start with sharing recipes.

Until next !

Old dutch editions of Transformers DVD's 003: Generation 2 DVD, Transformers Deel 3

Old dutch editions of Transformers DVD's

The second DVD is a Generation 2 DVD, Transformers Deel 3 (Part3) Bought at a dutch Bart Smit toyshop in 2003 or 2004

Like part 1and 2, it has "three"(2 actually) episodes on it and is very nice to own.

Here are some screenshots from the menu structure: Interesting to think back and note that for DVD01, Starscream is on the Cover image and Prime is featured on the Menu image. The powers that be decided to change it again. Grapple on the cover image and Sunstreaker on the menu image.
So next week: will it be reversed ??


 "Deel" means Part
"Speel alles" means Play All
"Hoofdstukken" means Chapters
"Ondertiteling" means Subtitles
"Aan / Uit" means On /Off
 
The Core
"Hoofdmenu" means Main menu.
"Verder" means Next
 
Dinobot Island deel 1
"Terug" means Back
"Hoofdmenu" means Main menu.
"Verder" means Next
 
Dinobot Island deel 2
"Terug" means Back
"Hoofdmenu" means Main menu.
Again, all great episodes, The Core is simply epic and made me love the constructicons and I AM just a sucker for endings like that one has. Dinobot Island, I had forgotten this classic episode, I remember being thrilled when this first went out (in G1 form, remember that these are all G2 cartoon versions) and really wanted to see the resolution to that cliffhanger.



HIGHLY RECOMMENDED. See below to look at a fullsize of picture both sides of the package.



Please also look at the updated Part 001 and 002 of this series.

would be 85 Kilograms.

Currently, I would be pleased to hang around the 92 kilgrams area but my main goal is to reach
under 100 Kilograms.


Week 6 has passed, what have I done?

Start of the new year:
-Resuming Walking the dog regularly for about 15 minutes a day,
-Avoiding carbs as much as possible.

All in all a good week and very promising. I started reaaly good with the home trainer but strained myself during that execrcise so I decided to have a slow week. I did have a sneak peak on saturday to see what my weight would be. 100,8 it said. My first goal is within reach.

Time for some facts:
This past 7 days I have:

Walked 5480 meters
In 0 hours, 58 minutes and 23 seconds.
At an average speed of 5 Kilometers per hour
Resulting in burning 439.9 Kcal

I continue at 101 Kg on 11-01-2016,
that's 2.1  Kilograms LESS that previous week !
AND that's 4.5 Kilograms LESS than when I started!

Later in the new year I will start with sharing recipes.

Until next !

Like part 1, it has three episodes on it and is very nice to own.

Here are some screenshots from the menu structure: Interesting to note that for DVD01 Starscream is on the Cover image and Prime is featured on the Menu image. The roles are reversed here.

 "Deel" means Part
"Speel alles" means Play All
"Hoofdstukken" means Chapters
"Ondertiteling" means Subtitles
"Aan / Uit" means On /Off

 
SOS Dinobots
"Hoofdmenu" means Main menu.
"Verder" means Next

 
Heavy Metal War
"Terug" means Back
"Hoofdmenu" means Main menu.
"Verder" means Next

 
The Autobot Run
"Terug" means Back
"Hoofdmenu" means Main menu.

All great episodes, SOS Dinobots is simply a classic, my first encounter with the Constructicons.
Heavy metal war also excellent, probably my favorite.
The Autobot run is pure nostalgia.
