Good afternoon all.

thought I'd drop by and say hello

40 year old bloke here so looking good in a bikini is not at the top of my agenda :), I could however do to lose a little lard.

I'm currently a little under 15 stone (208lbs for our friedds across the pond), I was a full 14 pounds heavier at xmas and lost a little using a diffenrent but similar site, here seems to be a little more comprehensive, I still need to lose about 2 stone (28lbs) then I'll be back to something like my fighting weight :)

Any way good luck to all that might pass by

Ian

    Believe me Jen no one wants to see my pasty white behind in a thong lol a bikini would be a whole lot less frightening :)

    Thanks all for the welcome
