Mawnin' all! Have got off to a flyer with my new healthy lifestyle. Went to the gym 5 times last week and watched closely what I was eating and lost 2 lbs!! What a great and encouraging start. Hopefully I've found a formula which is working. I'd tell you what it is but I'd have to kill you ;-)
Played golf at Hollingbury last night and had another eventful round. I was rusty, crap and frankly useless for my first 5 holes and it did not feel good to be stood on hole 6 at +7!! It was extremely cold and windy so not the best conditions anyway but after a steady par on 6 I suddenly found my swing again. I played home in -4 from there to shoot 75 in strong winds (including a holed greenside bunker shot for eagle on 17) so this was great. The amount of golf I'm playing now is diminishing very rapidly indeed! I have the next 4 wednesdays off in which I will hopefully play at least 27 holes. After that I will be more or less full time at work and am doing stuff on most of the weekends so to be honest I am considering knocking it on the head for the rest of the year to recharge the batteries and come out focused, committed and keen in January to prepare for my tournament season!!
I got asked yesterday whether I was still considering turning amateur and my simple response is that I will give it until I am 30 and if I am no nearer to my goals and feel like I've given it my best, that will be when I turn amateur again and focus on competing at a high level in that arena.
Not really much else to report just now. I guess things go a bit quieter now in the build up to xmas. My focus for the moment is to get myself down to 11 stone. I would love to achieve this goal and as I said, I have gotten off to a great start. I'll leave it for now. All the best....
