Enter stage right .... screwny work mate.
Enter stage left .... not so slender pixie.
Stu has for months been saying he wants to start weight training again but has to date failed.
Pixie has for years wanted to lose weight!
Stu thinks that we should make this a challenge .... me to lose 1st and him to gain 1st. Given he can eat a house and not gain an ounce his gain will be muscle by pumping iron.
So suggestions please on what the bet should be (he suggested money perhaps) and how long to lose that stone!

I'd have thought it would be easier for you to lose a stone than him to gain one (if you truly are a stone overweight.
However losing while training for FLM could be difficult - I am hoping to prove it is possible, but I think I have more to lose than you.
But if you give yourself too long, it will be too easy to delay trying until after FLM.
and you don't want to give him too long ...
tricky ...
Problem is he is very competative! Also I want to lose before FLM, ideal 1st.
So maybe 1st in 2mths? And money to my charity??
Oh I don't know!
Then how to lose the pounds?! Brian at club keeps on saying drop the carbs ... but head says that is daft and won't allow it. What about WW or Rosemary as she is my charity's patron and they gave me her online stuff free (I did buy the postal pack anyway!)
Arrgggghhh
If you can get your head round the discipline I do think it is a sensible plan for runners.
We could set up a separate blog for us to do this together, without boring everyone else with our problems.
I think you can set up one where we both can post.
Food diary? weeekly weighin?
what do you reckon?
As for timescales give yourself until the FLM - Thats just under 12 weeks.
Above all you can do it!
