Anthony - I weigh more than you!

Are you going to the blonde bash this weekend?

If so, we can have a weigh in and a side bet for your charity if you like? Whoever loses the least by July 1st will have to add £100 to your charity?

[Pokerron]

sadly not, but I am a trusting fellow and will accept your offer on the basis of you posting your weight now and weighing in bi-weekly.

If you weigh a lot more than me then maybe we could do it as % lost??

[Highstack]

I was looking for a boxing style weigh in for a laugh so that we were using the same scales. However, I will weigh myself tonight on my bathroom scales (I think around 21 stone but I will confirm on here tomorrow).

My aim was to get down to 17 stone by next Christmas, so I am hoping to be half way there in July. I will postmy progress for you, but I have a tonne of chocolate to get through from Christmas, before I make a serious push. The idea of a bet will hopefully keep me more focused.

Want to make that a 3 way comp?

I dare not weigh myself at the moment but 19st is perhaps not far off.

Lowest %age loser £100 to charity and middle one £50, How about that?

I will be at the bash this weekend.

[Highstack]

Ok Robert.

As Anthony quest is already generating cash, how about you and I have a weigh in on Saturday and then we can have a straight bet for his charity. It will also give us a good excuse to attend another poker event on the weekend nearest 1/7/6 for the final weigh in.

Perfect. Sorry Anthony, as you were lol.

[Pokerron]

Damn, that felt like a sale

[Robert HM]

I'm hoping for 20% off

Highstack, Robert

Room for another in this comp?

I don't mind mate. I can't speak for Robert, but my guess is that it will be good news for the charity whoever pays and how much is a bonus to them, so I am sure that he won't mind.

Hard to belive that people who sit around in front of a computer all day, eating pizza and drinking beer, would be overweight. Who woul have thought?

I will be driving on Saturday as I only live in Warwick which is around 45 minutes away, but I plan to get there around 5pm. I need to join the Broadway first and then we can find somewhere to do the 'big' weigh in.

[Robert HM]

Sorry for the delay, was too busy eating.

Sounds a good idea Sheriff. The 3 of us in a race, best % loss gets away scott free, middle loser coughs up £50 for P4C and the one who ate all the pies is down £100 for the charity.  OK?

Sounds good to me (apart from the obvious conflict of trying to win Fray Bentos pies in future!)

Good Luck 

I'm doing the same, trying to lose 3st by July. Just stick to the diet but allow yourself a treat once a week or so, thats the way it works for me. I think I'll be good for the whole week then allow myself a Grosvenor Breakfast after Poker on a friday night! That'll be my incentive!! 

Hope you do it mate!!

In the initial stages I have decided to weigh in and report weekly as it helps with motivation.
  
3rd January - 19 Stone 13 lb

Weight loss to date - 5lb.
