Pounds to become euro in weighty charity challenge

NINE big-hearted Waterford men, who have been dieting for almost five weeks, are hoping their weight loss will net thousands of euro for the South East Cancer Foundation.

The ordeal for Cha’s Angels ends today.

In the first two weeks of the diet alone, the nine men shed a collective 88 pounds. As the final few days of the regime drew to a close over the weekend, group spokesman Cha O’Neill revealed the nine lads have, between them, lost a whopping 108 pounds or more than 7½ stone.
