Pieter1 Posted January 12, 2016 Share My fitness pal is much better to use these days, gave up on it more than a year ago and now using it for the last 3 weeks, helps me keep a straight line...I prefer the old version, but started using it again today. Ate only fruit today, first day in like a month without a drink and no smoke. So far so good.

partydave Posted January 13, 2016 Share Right, so the nitty gritty. The money needs to go into an account.I have a spare Standard Bank savings account that I don't mind using, but it is up to the community if they would feel safe using this account. If not, please do come up with suggestions.

Guest notmyname Posted January 13, 2016 Share I'm not interested in the cash aspect. Sadly I just cannot warrant it as I support another charity on a monthly basis.

Amberdrake Posted January 13, 2016 Share I am happy to use that account. Honestly R50 a month is free if it motivates me at least somewhat! Happy to also donate rather than win the pot.

Latent_Blue Posted January 13, 2016 Share I'll participate, but loosely. After my December binge I added 1kg to an already dik me. 1m76, currently 94kg. Did the BMI calculation on this site http://bmicalculator.cc/?gclid=CjwKEAiAws20BRCs-P-ssLbSlg4SJABbVcDpbYHdEUt5S4TbvqFrRQREuZMnpvY7DMbNbQzU6qum3BoCxJnw_wcBTHE VERDICT.You are obese.To obtain a normal body weight, you must lose between 16.87 and 36.69 kilograms.Even the low weight loss numbers I need to obtain to get into their recommend zone is crazy. If I did manage to loose 36kg. I'd look like I was suffering from a disease that cannot be cured with garlic and beetroot.oh damn you are obese.To obtain a normal body weight, you must lose between 24.70 and 46.37kilograms.

Captain Fastbastard Mayhem Posted January 13, 2016 Share oh damn you are obese.To obtain a normal body weight, you must lose between 24.70 and 46.37kilograms.See, that's why BMI is such a **** measurement. In order to get to the "ideal" measurement, I need to lose 26kg. Which would make me 80kg. And that's just not cool....

Have fun folks and good luck to all that take part.I agree, on the 23rd of December I weighed 83kgs plus change, this morning I weighed in at 79.1kg.I found that just the diet or just the cycling did nothing to help my weight, doing them together has worked wonders btw im 1,76m Link to comment https://forum.bikehub.co.za/topic/156730-bike-hub-weight-loss-challenge-2016/page/4/#findComment-2792002 Share on other sites More sharing options...

If not, please do come up with suggestions. U only have 144 posts - i don't trust you.#kidding If you make a run for it with the bucks it will give bikehub an entertaining thread for the next decade. Im cool with it, but pretty sure there will be people not so cool.

Fruity Posted January 13, 2016 Share If I can do it, you can all do it. This was me in September 2014, weighing at just over 105kg. I was the same size in February last year, took me around 9 months to lose just on 20kg. I believe you can lose that weight in less time than I did, it just took me 9 months to lose it. I have another 5kg I would like to lose though, to try get back to my original size/weight. Haven't got a recent pic of me on the bike as I haven't entered any events yet this year.
