Frosty has a High School reunion coming up on June 16th, and he’s feeling like he needs to look his best by losing a few pounds before then. What he lacks is motivation, but what’s more motivation than donations from friends, family and complete strangers to lose weight?!

Frosty has 50 days, starting April 28th, to try to lose as much weight as possible! How you’ll motivate him is by donating a set amount for every pound that he sheds! Please start at a dime per pound, just to make it worth our while because Paypal will be taking a portion of the money anyway, or checks are accepted as well.

I realize that this is late, but I would really appreciate your help to motivate for me to lose weight. I would love to see myself 50lbs in 50 days, but honestly, this is going to be my first time EVER where I am going to try to purposefully lose weight. I’ve always just changed my diet, but this time I’m going to exercise, and I hope to keep exercising after all this is done.

Everything is going to have to be done on the trust system. I will take pictures of the scale when I start, and when I end. We will have a weekly tally during our show and on our website. The weight loss will be based on the 50 days between April 28th and June 16th. I will check my weight only once per week so that I will not appear to be cheating, whether it’s you with your money, or myself with my health. I don’t want to obsess over this and just try to lose weight without eating anything. In fact my diet will more than likely stay the same, so take that into consideration, either way.

Donations will be accepted through May 10th. Please send your pledge to frostyless@turkeyvan.com, as it will be viewed only by Graeme. He will let me know how many people have donated to me, but for fairness, I will not see how much the donations will be. If I know that there are 10 people that are donating, that will be more motivation than 5. But please keep in mind that I will need to buy a scale (something that I vowed I would never do, seriously!), possibly buy new clothes (as I have lost a good amount of weight already just by changing my diet), and I am trying get some spending cash for when I go to Australia.

Anyway, thank you very much! I hope to have a bunch of donations, because I don’t want to only raise the money for the trip and lose the weight for the reunion, but I want to start living a healthier life. I have suffered from GERD (acid reflux) for a long time, and it hasn’t really effected me outside of discomfort up until last week. Last Tuesday I spent 2 hours trying to breathe and dry heaving nothing up because the burning was so bad in my throat that I had tears in my eyes. It took a day and a half (and a lot of acid reducing prescription medications) to get my stomach feeling back to normal. One of the ways to eliminate GERD is to lose weight, and I hope to do just that!
