AN EXPLOSIVE START

Today we were going to jump out of bed at sparrow fart, bounce along Lambton Quay to work with our yoghurt and vogels for lunch , put in a good days work for John Key and find some city steps this evening to wobble up and down - then we were going to blog on our first successful Fab and ( nearly) Fifty day.

However, at about 4am we were woken by some evil bastard tying our innards in knots. We could hear his sadistic gurgles of delight. The pain continued unabated for 2 hours only to be punctuated by waves of nausea. Top that with a very ugly headache.

We called in sick at 7.30am.

The rest of the day has been an unpleasant nightmare. We swallowed some pretty strong knockout pills which kept us on the edge of the big pain pit.

Since about 8.30am we have been resident of the little room with the porcelain accoutrement's - lots. Its too ugly to write about.

Other than to say that it started to wane about 2pm. Since then we have managed , between groggy dozes to finish the Girl with a Dragon Tattoo. Stunning novel. ( spoiler alert)

Serial killer meets geek girl who likes brooding journo.

There are two more in the series. Stieg Larsson the Journo who wrote what is known as the Millennium Trilogy then sadly popped his clogs.

Anyway, we weighed ourselves post voiding - We are a very unhealthy 101.5kgs. (224 pounds)

So our goal is to get to 173 pounds or 78kgs.

Now we are not the only ones to have used the net and blogging to beat the bulge

Let the journey begin..

BB, if you don`t have one already buy a Koromiko plant and you will forever have access to the `majic` leaves, in times of upset puku just pick 5/6 tips, bruise slightly in your palm and then steep in boiling water let it cool and then drink you will be a lot better in mind and body within 2/3 hours.

Great start - fasting and purging...

Hope you feel healthier soon.
