You are on the archive wiki. The new wiki is here. Urg, I hate administrative incompetence! I’m not going to rant about it though… We live in South Africa, so we’ve all experienced it.

I am going to rant about the fact that I just lost 3 CDs?. Well, that’s not strictly true. I just lost a competition for which the prize was 2 CDs? and I have to buy one of them for the winner so…

The competition was a simple weight loss challenge between myself and two friends. We decided one evening that we were pudgy and sick of it, so we challenged one other to rectify the situation. We weighed ourselves the next day and each chose a target weight. We decided that the winner would be the one who gets closest to their target weight… Sadly that was not me. Although, I was up against steep odds. The guy that did win is getting married in a couple of weeks and so had a little more motivation. :)

We’ve been weighing and tracking our progress every week or so since then and we have all done rather well if I do say so myself. Eventually we decided that it had to end and so scheduled the final weigh in for the beginning of December… last night. Damn, I was confident. I’ve lost a lot and last time we weighed I was well in the lead. I’m not sure what this other dude did but he lost 2kg between Monday and Thursday! I think I should send him an article on anorexia.

Still, in addition to 3 CDs? I have lost 15kg and I am pretty proud about it. I’m getting to a point where I will have to start buying new clothes that actually fit me. What is really groovy is that you can finally see the first sign of an outline of a sixpack… you have to look at precisely the right angle in a mirror forged from mithral, covered in diamond and bathed in the tears of a unicorn, by the light of the full moon, on the summer solstice after dancing naked in the town square and outrunning the angry mob… but still :)
