Weigh yourself, email to whoever is running it, they publish all the participants/weights/targets/progress on here on a weekly basis. That's what happened last year anyway.
More fundamentally it works through peer pressure and public humiliation for me 🙂
Yes please

add me too please!! lost 10lb before Christmas but need to lose another stone, email in profile too
One suggestions winner should be person who loses most in % not just in lbs/stones, did this at work other year and made it fairer with the skinnier guys who were in, a big lad won it in the end anyway though!
Got to do something. Need to lose weight but more importantly need to fight the depression and a group effort like this is just the sort of thing my counselling suggests so count me in.
104kg at present and ultimatly would like to be 85kg but 95 is probably more realistic and healthy for one year.
Look forward to seeing the progress.
Cheers
Andy S
P.S. I've got a combined body composition monitor/balance so I can do mine in % body fat. I'll get my fat %age recorded for my profile.
Great, loads people on board! Basically, weekly weigh in - I'll publish details and we see who loses most. Don't know about % idea- what's peoples thoughts?
I'll bug people for weigh in and call you if you drop out- some real peer pressure!
Will be chatting to our suppliers- see if we can get a little prize pot together!
Back in the shop Saturday to start on this.
i'm in ,need too lose 3 stone,to much beer not enough riding.

Hope everyone dont mind?
grezbo great, forward it over.
First add me then send the list over 😉
Coung me in. Need to lose just over a stone I reckon due to 2 months of holidays, birthdays and general overindulgence.
I need to lose about 1 and half stone ... add me in too please.
I should be on the list. Punt it on to previously mentioned email please
Bigg (hopefully to be not quite so big g soon)
18Bikes, why don't you have the main prise for the biggest loser their choice of any bike at trade price if your suppliers don't go for it. That means we save lots but it cost you nothing
Count me in please, need to get rid of the three stone (at least) of excess lard I'm carrying about.

I try this every year and life gets in the way... but I NEED to get this sorted this year! So count me in!
eMail is probably in my profile, but its rob AT alpinist DOT co DOT uk
2 - 3 stone would be ace, if I can even just shift 1.5 stone I will be happy enough though, that would get me back down to when I were almost in shape a few years back levels (though since my work is a lot more manual now than then there has to be some additional muscle mass...)
To be honest, don't think I have a goal as such, more just shift excess flab, the numbers don't matter so much!
Can I play as well please?
Email in profile!
When do we eat?
I am in, need to lose a fair bit, mail in profile
I'm in, need to shift a few stone. According to those weight /height charts I'm six stone overweight!

So count me in.
This forum has so far had me join the flickr 365 group and now a weight watchers group. What next? (and i dont even have a mountain bike at the moment!)
Put my name down already but e-mail address is selmsgarne.beowulf@virgin.net

Cool, sounds ideal.
104kg at present and ultimatly would like to be 85kg but 95 is probably more realistic and healthy for one year.
That's near enough me, we can form a special interest group!
Could someone check that my email is available in my profile please.
I'm in as Wii Fit plus has just given me the shock of my life.

Having realised that I now fall into the "heavy weight" category at boxing I need to lose loads! meehaja at hotmail dot com
thanks
Not wishing to jump the gun but I intend starting for proper tomorrow (I know, it being new years and all). In fact I'm already a couple kg's down after three months of eating a lot of smackry.
Surely it would be easier to have an e-mail address for everybody to send to? If it were me I'd not be arsed looking up peoples profiles.
Also how you going to verify the starting weights? Cos if you manage to persuade Cotic to contribute I'm actual 750kg... 
count me in as well, I need to lose about 30 kilo 😕 (can we do metric)

Think I need to join this "Chubby Club" even bought some scales and test calibrated them @ work the other day 😯

Yes please, me too, the turbo trainer is sitting ready for it's beasting, as is my fat-ass,
djcarpenter1@gmail.com
Ah, yes, this is a good idea. Taking on an office based job 15 months ago has somehow added a stone (good stone admittedly) I haven't shifted yet. I presume this is the place for gentle encouragement and the odd bit of ribbing?
Count me in.

Could someone check that my email is available in my profile please.
Can't see it here.
just weighed in this morning, before breakfast and after dropping the kids off at the pool, 209.0 lbs.
Target 182 lbs. That means shifting about 13% of my body weight by May is my target.
My email should be visible in profile he says.
Quick check of the scales and im 14st 10.5lbs or 206.5lbs or 93.66kgs if you use that new fangled metric stuff.
Whats my goal, 13 and half stone or 85.7kgs, which ever comes first
just has a thought and a shock, don't know if my email addy is in my profile anymore so lukegray @ gmail.com without spaces will do the trick.
I'm going to need a weighbridge the scales have just said 😳 19.9 stone I knew i'd letmyself go but not that much.
How longs it going to run for? If all year i'll make a proper target lets say 15 stone so 4.9 stone loss
Put my name down for a bit of that. Could do with losing a stone, ideally two.

Pardon me for being dim, what's the email address thing for?
12 stone and 1 pound this morning.
good question. last year we e-mailed the number into the organiser (thanks for doing that marsdenman). Name and weight in the subject line so he didn't have to open hundreds of e-mails. I'm pretty sure 18 bikes don't want to add all those mails individually. Would make more sense to give out an e-mail that we can all send to.
Wieght check this am and I am below(just)14st for the first time in 30yrs. Used to be an 11st weakling until I got salmonella. Lost 2st and 6wks of my life. Barely ate much for mths therafter without being sick, that went on for a couple of years with certain foods. Then I regained my appetite and was hungry all the time, ballooned,for me to over 15st.
232.5lbs this morning. I blame the mince pies. That'll be ~25lbs to lose then.
13st 3. Not quite as much damage from layoff due to shoulder and Christmas but I was close to my target of 12st 7 when it happened so. 12st 7 by the end of April (moderately fit for the arrival of firstborn) and ideally 12st by the summer to be ultra trim for Kielder 100 (oh, and the rest of my life).
There, said it, got to do it now 🙂
If anyone was planning to use something to do with points thats no way related to a commercial diet plan and was looking to work them out on your phone (handy if your in a shop buying sandwiches for lunch etc) feel free to use [url= http://dmiller.sofi.org.uk/projects/projects.php?page=points_calc ]this[/url].
please sir can I join?

Me too?
I would like to join for this as well. Managed to get down to 96.5kg/213lb (down from 112kg/247lb) during summer. Now I'm 101kg (223lb) on my scales. Goal is to get to 90kg/198lb in the next couple of months, maybe even lower than that.
My email is in my profile.
I'm in. Need to lose at least 2st before the 24/12.

I'm not sure exactly how this will work, but if it can motivate me to lose a bit of weight and get fitter than I'm very much up for it! E-mail in profile.
Im well up for this, it is my new year aim!
Please include me, email in profile...
todays weight...
214.4lbs
Cos I am vertically challenged I usually say that I am not overweight but under-tall... I could do with losing at least 3 stone... got every incentive if done as a challenge among like minded - count me in.
This morning I was 204lbs or 92.5kg! I would like to be about 176lbs/80kg, by June would be realistic.
i realised that i actually don't own any scales, so i suppose i'd better get a set tomorrow or something if i want to do this properly!
email should be in my profile. I'll weigh myself tomorrow! 😯
count me in. email in profile.
