    Hey all.

    Ive finally decided to lose some weight and get into shape.
    Ive got a snowboarding holiday comeing up and id like to be as fit for it as possible.

    My brother is also on the chubby side so i thought of a little bet between me and my brother that would help us both lose weight and maybe make a few quid while we were at it.
    Every week we would have a weigh in, who ever lost the least amount of weight puts a tenner in a pot. On new years day we have a final weigh in and who evers lost the most, wins the pot.

    Ive been eating really healthy having 3 decent meals a day, for instance, fruit and fibre for breakfast, 2 scrambled egg on brown toast for lunch and steamed chicken and veg for dinner.
    Ive not found this a hardship atall because i enjoy the food i make and can really see myself sticking to it for a long time. Ive cut my drinking down from 20 pints a week to 5. Ive joined the gym at work which ive been visiting about 4-5 times a week, i really enjoy going and feel great after a good work out.

    I really think i can stick to this healthy lifestyle.

    Ive been gradually loosing weight, roughly 2-3lb's per week. Which from what ive read from this site is quite a good steady amount to lose.

    So far ive only had to put 20quid in the kitty which im quite pleased about.
    Sadly my brother hasent taken any pics of himself, hes lost 7lb's so far.

    So heres 2 pics of me weighing 19lb's less

    I cant really see major differences but its only been a couple of months, im quite chuffed with the way its going.



    Il give regular updates on my progress.

    serious though it isn't easy. 20 pounds in 2 months is a great start!

    Just admit it, the thought of posting a half naked pic on ESB aroused you.

    ****ing hell. Huge dif in those pics Glen, well done and keep up the good work. I am doing my best to get in shape. I am at a good fitness level but have spent alot of time injured this year and the end of last year so put on a few pounds. Hopefully when all is done I will be brave enough to post the pics too.
