Calling all fellow fatties

Alright here is the deal. I have 60 pounds to lose and the sooner the better. So I purpose the Slowtwitch Super Fatty Smack Down!

Here is the idea. Everyone with a real weight issue is invited to play, none of you “I have 5 pounds to reach racing weight” types. This is for the big boys and girls. We each put $10 bucks in to qualify for play. We agree on dates and goals. We figure out some way to verify progress or go by the honors system. Who ever wins gets the jack in cash OR has it donated to the charity of their choice in their name.

Now what makes this even better is outside betting is incouraged. Pick your horse and put your money where your mouth is. The betting can between two people or can be oragnized in larger groups. Anything is up for the bet. Who wins or comes in last, who drops out first, etc. etc. etc. Bet on your horse then play an active role in getting them over the line first. The options are unlimited and the fun could kill us all.

This is a group thing so right now I have no solid plan just a dream of us sexy biguns sweating and breathing hard to get sexier.

Who’s in?

HAHAHA. I like the betting aspect.

How do you win?

I don’t have sixty pounds to lose but definitely need to shed at least 15-20 in the next 14 weeks…well, that’s if I plan on hitting any early season goals! I’m keen…will you accept a Canadian $10 bill? I mean, it’s almost par these days anyhow…and it’s a nice shade or purple!

while I also have probably 50-55 pounds to lose, I’m not sure I’d be a good bet for anyone. I could be bribed with pizza’s from Lou Malnati’s in IL (my former stomping grounds), Portillo’s Beef N’ Chedda’s (for those with the correct pronounciation of “cheddar”), and a good slab of ribs. Sure, I’m up to riding for 20 minutes on my trainer 4-5 days per week, but I don’t think that weight is going to come off fast enough to bet on (except to lose) :slight_smile:

This is the wrong time of the year for this type of event. World Series in a few months, football season will be starting, the holidays, the nights get longer and colder and cold beer and warm food seems so much better… Why torture yourself?

Have you thought about Jenny Craig? Or how about the Chuck Norris equipment machines?

If you win I will get your named tattooed on my lower back. That get ya motivated?

All times are bad times man. Excuses are easy to come by.

I am looking to loose around 50lbs… I am in, just let me know the details and where to send the money!

I’m in.
