Join the 2007 FatBlokeThin weight-loss challenge . Here’s the message:

Anyone can join at any time but to be a founding member of this thrilling challenge, you need to let me know by Thursday 26th July 2007 (i.e. 2 days times !!).

The Rules.

Starting weight - the weight as measured on Friday 27th July 2007. I will e-mail all contestants to establish their starting weight (no helium or hover-magic shoes allowed..)

Weigh ins - there will be weekly weigh ins every Monday and a monthly weigh in on the the first Monday in each month (staring on 3rd September 2007) all weights to be e-mailed to me at the address shown in the LH side bar..(no, the OTHER left!).

Prizes - small but exquisite prizes will be awarded for biggest loser each week (if I’m feeling generous) and definitely every Month!

Remember weight loss will be measured in %age of starting weight lost to make it fair for everyone. I will publish a chart detailing everyones progress (not sure how or where yet but it’ll come to me soon!).

By all means use the graphic above to publicise your involvement - I can supply different colours/sizes if required, just let me know or design your own if not, I’m not proud. There is NO requirement to show a button on your site if you don’t want to. This is just a bit of fun.

Finally, F U N…this is what this is all about, it is not about starving yourself or doing dangerous things to your body to lose weight quickly. This is to create some community and some sorely needed motivation for each other. I reserve the right to discount contestants excessive weigh loss if i suspect naughtiness of any kind. Keep it real people!

Check it out….it looks great!

    Yes, things like this can actually work well.

    If you think about the previous study where you get fat if your friends are fat, then you will lose weight if your friends (and other people) work on losing weight.

    Thanks for the link, Neel. Since starting my weight loss blog, I’ve made quite a few friends who are on the same path. FatBlokeThin’s challenge is the perfect way to bring us all even closer together while providing motivation.
