I'm going to try and loose 10 Kg by longest day 2008. Please help maintain my committment by sponsoring me. All proceeds will go to the RNLI. Make me an offer per Kg lost, up to 10, and if I don't make it I shall pay the lot, but I hope that you'll still donate the pro-rata amount for what I manage to loose. I'll post an accurate weighing tomorrow.

Apart from eat less, excercise more and drink no alcohol, I need a few helpfull tips...

Starting Weight 90.0Kg

The Sponsors

1. MJH............£1/Kg
2. Scubbee......£1/Kg
3. gerbil..........£1/Kg
4. diver rick.....£1/Kg
5. Frankie Price.£1/Kg
From one fat old sod (110Kg) to another, stick me down for £1/Kg..

thats not fat

124Kg is fat and even being 6ft 3 doesn't help with the BMI

I need to lose 20Kg badly so will cough out £1/kg for you if you do it and match it for my loss in Kgs

You're on, chubby boy

I've put you down for £1/kg and will donate to the RNLI the same per kg for your loss by 21/06/08.

You are being honest about the starting weight, aren't you?

Cheers, Chris

Yup, I did think about that but the worst I did was to not go to the loo immediately before the first weighing. Still, that probably amounted to 6 Kg as it happens

Have you tried aqua-running. You look like a right dork in the pool but a) it works and b) it gives everyone a laugh.

I was in the same boat with injury a few years ago. I did upper body circuits in the gym and lots of situps etc. It def stopped me getting fat.

Stick me down for the £1/kg thing.

Good luck.

ooeeerr - sorry about that. I am a lot fitter now though. After the donation to the RNLI I shall not be spending money on red wine for a while, so that should help

I've still got a ton of the stuff from a booze cruise last December, so it's not all bad news

same here but I could try to lose the 19kg by monday, somebody suggested a weekend in egypt or a day in Northampton


how much do i need to cough out? £20 as its a round up of the weight I failed to lose?

strangely waist size has shrunk by 3 inches, leg muscles are massive from the 4 miles a day walk to work and back.
