The thread title speaks volumes, right? It got you to come here and that was my intention!

Its not what you are thinking though!!

I have thought for a long time to start a weight loss thread here at Teak Door and see how many members want to get involved and see who could lose the most weight. Obviously it is up to you to be honest about the weight that you have lost.

Anyone want to join me in getting healthier so can we enjoy Thailand for many years to come??

I have already been losing for the past year. I have lost 51 pounds already. I am 6'4 and used to power lift and never really cared about a gut or anything, but now I do.

I am at 117 kilograms now (257 pounds for my fellow Americans) and want to get to 105 kilograms which is 231 pounds.

So if you want to join me then post your weight in kilos and pounds and keep us updated on your progress.

you can also share with us your diet changes and what you are doing to work up a sweat!

A year ago, a scale at Big C convinced me that enough was enough and that is when I started losing!

Find one and drop a baht in it and get back to us!

Not sure if there has ever been a thread like this here before and did not bother searching.

I am sure Marmite can dig one up for me from 12 years ago

but until then this is the newest one!

Anways best of luck with your efforts, as I'm sure you'll already know a lot's diet. What are you doing now, weights and cardio or cardio alone?

Right now I am doing about 1 1/2 hours with weights.

AI bike in a group class an hour in the morning and and hour in the evening. It is pretty intense and at the end I can wring the sweat out of my clothes!

^ it has been the thing that has caused me to shed the weight. If you choose a bike in the back of the class there is plenty of incentive to pedal fast as well!! I am the only guy in the class

I need to lose about 20kgs, but I really need a training partner who is going to drag me away from this fucking computer and make me do something. I am able to start from the beginning of March, but I'm not interested in spending loads at a posh/expensive gym.

Anyone in the Lad Prao or Sukhumvit areas know of a cheap gym and willing to kick my lardy arse?

^If motivation's your problem best bet might be to slash out on a personal trainer for a couple of months Marmite. The trouble with training partners is that it often just means twice the excuses.

After that time with a PT you should be in the swing of it and going for the enjoyment of it.

MtD, just join a gym and you will find plenty of partners at the gym. Many of my friends met ladies at the gym and they are now work out partners - in and out of the gym!

Besides, wouldn't it be better to smell sweet perfume than a sweaty jock strap from your workout partner!
