Well - a new year, and a a new (or old) goal; get healthier - NOW! There is to much of me, around 50 kg give or take, and my New Years Resolution is to get to 100, e.g. "Target 100", which means to break the 100 kg barrier within this year.
First off I need to lose some weight, and afterwards I'll begin swimming again.
Here's what will happen for the first 6 months;
- I'll weigh myself every Monday evening at 2000h starting 4th of January 2010, results will be posted on this blog.
- Ride my bike to work Monday, Wednesday & Friday, e.g. the days I'm not going to CBS. This is a 2 x 17 km ride with lots of steep hills and windy stretches. Results for these rides will be posted on http://connect.garmin.com
- Avoid all of the following: junk (pizza, burgers, fries etc.) for a period of 6 months.
- Avoid candy, cookies, chips etc. for a period of 6 months.
- Only allow myself to drink soft drinks, juice, alcohol etc. from Friday evening to Sunday at noon.
Previously I've been following a diet program from where I know that I can drop close to one kilogram every week. So when this hold-up, the first goal would be a 25 kg drop by 1st of July 2010 - we'll see.
To be continued...

Why the COP15 isn't going to achive anything....
Currently there is major massive invasion of Copenhagen….sorry – Hopenhagen, in order to reach an equitable agreement on the environment under the Danish Leadership, but they won’t succeed in the long run.
Yes the industrialized world might present some realistic and measurable goals to reduce the impact on the environment caused by our demand for energy, but come on; who are we kidding? Name for me please somebody who would like to give up their iPhone? Their online surfing? Their blogging (-:? All that we do in the western world demands energy and really nobody are willing to scale back the comfortable way of life we’ve all come to enjoy; in North America, in Europe, In the Pacific and so on. Instead demanding that we scale our energy consumption back, thus reducing heating, transporting, entertaining our selves, it will be up to the private sector and the intelligentsia of our Universities and engineering and business schools to invent new ideas to produce co2 free energy, or at least co2 reducing energy.
We’re just leaving a decade of overconsumption, over usage in all ways. This produced individuals that are ready to take on commitments to the world, interested in solving the issues, not scaling back to a pre-industrialization society. Only when private corporations and the intelligentsia awake from its sleep something will happen in the industrialized world.
On the other side of the rugby field is the third world countries that are hit – and will be hit the hardest – from the current climate changes. They claim that the industrialized world needs to pick up the environmental bill from our previous abominations. Well this can be argued, and truthfully the industrialized world has a responsibility; to the past – not so much the future.
Fertility are just short of holding the euro-zone and North America above the 2,1 children that is considered to maintain your demography. In the third world women gets 3-4-5-xx kids and they produce co2, and this accumulates to an unprecedented magnitude in just a few generations. How to stop this? Simple; make sure that women all around in the third world have access to and are allowed the usage of contraception’s. Then the rate of women whom will get a education will rise, and thus again improve the quality of living standard.
So how are standing in the doorway? Islamic laws and habits and Catholic laws and habits. Overall those two religions preach the submission of women to men, and hereby greatly reduces the chance for a women to be considered equal to men.
So who am I routing for? Women in the third world. Whom do I trust to come at through first? Private corporations in the industrialized world, but since the religious dogma won’t change anything until they experience their own ‘catechisms’, things are likely to stay the same or even get worse….also after COP15 are over.
I'm not holding my breath...
