Fatties. My money where your mouth is.

[hard2tel]

Awesome, awesome thread.

Instead of all the sponsered fatties or non-sponsered fatties posting updates in this thread, i think it would be easier if each fatty started a blog just for this project. Then somebody could gather all the links and list them in one post.

Either way though, this is gonna be a fun 'event' to follow...

If somebody wants to compile a list of all the contestants, I'd be interested in putting my $0.25 on 5 others.

This should be everybody who has expressed a desire in this thread to loose weight. If I missed anyone, give a shout out.

I've included a goal as far as "ideal weight" for everyone in order to give potential sponsers an idea of what they're commiting too. If someone posted a goal themseleves, I used that goal. Otherwise, I used this chart:

However, this is JUST A GUIDELINE. If you're going to loose weight by working out and get yourself seriously buffed, then you will be a bit heavier. If you just starve yourself and do no exercise you will wind up weighing less but won't be as healthy. In addition, the older you are the more likely you're going to wind up slightly heavier.

If you don't feel this goal is realistic, don't let it stop you! If you're 300+, even loosing 50 pounds is really, really good for you!!

If I got down to 150 pounds I would look like a Holocaust victim. I am thinking 200-215 would be more appopriate for my frame (I was 220 in high school when I was in good shape).

[Dids]

5-8 331 as I've said in this thread. GOSH.

[mjohnson406]

Alright, let see if anyone else wants in. Say 30 bucks? Person who loses most weight takes it all. PM me or reply to this thread if interested.

Ace, Dibs:

Congrats, I think you guys are the early favorites for winning the "biggest fatass on 2+2" award!!!

bison,

Put me down for some Dids sponsorship.

[nuggetz87]

18/5'10"/230. I don't really expect to get sponsored with those stats, meh. Still plan on losing weight this summer.

Despite the horrible meal plan at my school, I've still lost 10lbs. or so since starting college. I think it's because of portion control, rather than what I've been eating. It's easy to snack or go back for 2nds when all I have to do is walk up the stairs. I think with a more active lifestyle it would be easy to at least get below 200.

There seem to be enough financial backers for you to split up the funding to another 5 or 10 fatties.

Just a thought...

Well, I was hoping that somebody would say "I'll sponsor another 2 or 3" themselves. 5 is gonna be it for me, but other people should feel free to redistribute their payments.

I like this idea. Bison picks his 5, then maybe he can select people for the remainder of the sponsors. The money is nice but I just need someone to really help with nutrition/meals and motivation. Other than, you know, early death, which I guess hasn't done the job so far.
