Let us make things more interesting:

I will donate to losev (http://www.losev.org.tr/v2/tr/ ) (that's one of the few less “shady” charities here in Turkey — I am sure you've heard the rumors about deniz feneri and so) — besides leukemia is a “very” expensive ailment and I'm sure every penny (kuruş) I've spent there will be used for a good reason.

And here are the rules:
- I'll donate $100 (equivalent in Turkish Liras) to losev if you reach 33' waist line or below by 25.
- I won't donate a dime (at least on your behalf wrt this specific cause) if are are still above 33' waist line by 25.
- I'm an engineer, so every second and every millimeter counts. It's either a win, or a lose ;)

Good luck in your endeavor.

Junior Achivement is my charity Cheers Jon "Chubber" Wade Dear Melih,
I do not want to be singled out as Mr Fat Bloke on campus and since I am a bit of a salad dodger I will pay $100 for you to get back up to 38″ and then a further $100 for every belt bulging toe hiding 2″ beyond that.
Junior Achivement is my charity
