Paul Smeaton ... QUT News

Thought I'd start today, with a sign off (backwards I know), to finish off my final (hopefully) week of unpaid TV. Who knows, one day I may even get paid for it.

The last couple of weeks has been pretty full on. With Radio and TV prac weeks on top of the usual Uni, work and family life, I've barely had time to scratch myself but I'm definitely not complaining. As I rapidly approach the end of this degree I am noticing how far I've come, often by looking at my uni mates and how good they are. The week just gone proved to me how good this course at QUT actually is. As I review the story's each day its clear that many of these guys will be gracing our TV screens and radio broadcasts very soon. Each day the Journalism faculty produces a very professional news broadcast which until recently appeared on community television. Theses days it's purely a web Broadcast but the quality of the work is undeniable. Feel free to check out the website and story archive here. http://www.qutnews.com/

As for the diet, well the pressure I've felt recently, I admit could have been handled better. For much of the last two weeks I've floated from one extreme to the other. What I can say though is, despite feeling as though I've lost the plot for much of the time (diet wise) I've continued to maintain my current stats. I'm taking this as a huge positive because it could quite easily be so much worse. So let's get to the numbers.

Current Weight: 107.1kg   Previous weight: 107kg   difference hardly worth mentioning
Current Gut: 110cm       Previous Gut: 110cm           difference unable to be mentioned

So what does all this scientific data mean?

How could anyone decipher 2 full weeks in the Fat Bastard Diary without a kilo lost.

Well, let me have a stab. One thing that was certain in my mind on January 1, 2011 was; This won't be easy. I figured if my bad periods resulted in me maintaining my weight rather than gaining some then I should be pretty damn happy.

I do though feel like I'm regaining some control over my schedule  This week I have few morning commitments so I'm planning to get in at least 3 rides. I've pretty much been off the bike for a fortnight since my shoulder dramas but since it's feeling much better now I'm looking forward to getting back into the lycra.

Warnie certainly provided a boost to the Fat Bastard crew this week by appearing in the tabloids looking trim, taut and terrific. I think it's probably the Liz Hurley factor, that is; every burger he eats is one less shared evening in the boudoir. I know I'd lay off the Whoopers if that was the case. So I guess that's the answer, hook up with a super-model, earn millions, turn the cherry square and the kilos will just slide off. Hmmm, that sounds like a stretch, maybe I'll just try some shakes.


So I'll leave you all now to ponder that thought and head off to the Pub to watch the Tigers send the Bombers back to the Dreamtime.

Until next time, stay well.
