Weighing up the enemy

There is a new show on channel 4 called weighing up the energy.

http://www.channel4.com/programmes/weighing-up-the-enemy/on-demand/59354-001

Fatties compete against each other to lose the most body fat. They put their money on the line and if they lose, the other person gets to spend it on what they want.

I could lose weight if I did this. It is all the motivation I would need. Who's with me?

Is there a website that specialises in this sort of thing?

    So you cannot lose the weight for yourself? That way you spend your own money on new clothes when necessary.

    You might be interested in something like DietBet (I think it's http://www.dietbetter.com/). I've never done it personally, but a couple of friends of mine have.

    Or you can just have a bet going with someone in real life.

    That's a possibility too. But since the OP came here looking for someone else to start this sort of thing with I assumed that they'd already exhausted that option.

    I have exhausted that option.

    Thanks! I was looking for a website like this! I have gotten started. Been bingeing the last few days but there's no way I'm gonna lose that money.
