Hungry Hoss Diet *Competition* with SoLiTa

Competition time!

Popped to the ‘Traff’ to visit the Nespresso store today, whilst waiting for my wife in Boots I thought I’d check my weight on their scales…  22st 13lb, a BMI of 43.1 and a body fat percentage of 35.4% (which I think makes me genetically comparable to a pork scratching!)

Only one thing for it… diet time!

So, for the month of September (to start), I plan to shed as many lbs as possible… I pledge to convert the lbs lost into £ sterling, which I will donate to Action Against Hunger and Manchester’s Wood Street Mission.

I’m asking my Twitter followers to guess how many lbs I will lose, between now and the end of the month ~ One guess per follower, to be placed by midnight on 2^nd September.

*The follower who guess the correct weight loss will be given a £ for lb voucher to spend at SoLiTa - whose delicious food is partly responsible for my weight gain. (*If more that one person guesses the correct amount, their name will go into a draw.)

For a final blow out, we visited SoLiTa for their Charcoal grilled 24 ounce New York strip steak (for 2) with fries and béarnaise sauce and some other goodies:

Lucky 7 –  layered dip with tortilla chips; Cheeseburger Salad – sliced 6oz patty with cheese and classic salad; Crispy Fried Chicken Livers –  with neck bone gravy and a SoLiTa Onion.

I’ll keep followers posted with regular tweets as to my progress.

UPDATE: I've just had my final 'weigh in' and have managed to shed exactly 42 lbs or 3 stones - congratulations to @Nortonio who guessed the closest with 38lbs... please speak to Franco @SoLiTaNQ about claiming your £42 voucher! Sorry to @goodgobbleblog as I could not quite manage their guess of 50lbs. 

I've made my donation to Wood Street Mission (using paypal) and will make my donation to Action Against Hunger shortly (once I've gone to the car to get my wallet).
