I've let myself go a bit (I'm fucking fat) and I don't like it.
I was thinking that maybe a small bet with some of you AZ folks would be the motivation I need to get off my ever widening ass...this coming Friday (9/16/05), we all weigh in at Cav Arms and put $20.00 in the kitty. Whoever looses the most weight by 11/23/05 gets the money (any ties split the pot). So who's in? |

Man I thought you were going to have something cool on WWII, I watched the Band of Brothers last night when they were in the Battle of the Bulge.
Now on your little wager, I need to gain weight, so I'm out. |
|
... I'm there bro ... But I say it needs to be a proportional loss based on percentage of weigh-in weight lost |
|
|
I'm in, too!
I have to work Friday, I can swing by the shop after work say around 6:40pm for the weigh in if that's cool? -John |

If you gain more weight than anyone else loses, then you win. J/K You know that talking about gaining weight to a bunch of |
|

Oh, sounds good.
Liposuction is an automatic DQ. Will Don King be there at the weigh-in? |
|
Can we take side bets on how long it will take for you guys to gain all the weight back?
How about another weigh in on New Years for you yo-yos? |
|
... What a fucking troll - I may be over-weight, but you are stupid, and I can diet ... why don't you tell us what your real account name is screen-commando? |
|
|
Why 11/23/05? Why not make it 12/31/05 or something. |
|
|
thanksgiving? |

Exactly |

+1. I am a scrawny little thing, and I can't gain weight for shit. I am at 140, and my target is 195. Of course, I can't get past the 140. Sigh. |
|
|
You do it that way, and you've got to meet on like 12/1, too, just to make sure someone didn't eat the whole f'ing turkey. |

$20 is not much. Darn near cost that much in gas to get to Cavarms.
Lets make it $200! |

My only problem is my beer gut.
I haven't had a beer since Memorial Day...Yet the gut is still there. So, how many calories are in Tequila |
|
Actually, that would make it unfair to the really heavy guys. Specifically, if two guys lost the same amount of weight, the one who initially "weighed less" would have lost a greater percentage of their overall weight. Take the following example: Amount of weight lost: 10 pounds Subject A's initial weight: 240lbs Subject B's initial weight: 290lbs Based on percentages of initial weigh-in, Subject A lost a little over 4%. Subject B, on the other hand, only lost 3.4%. |

... Yeah, besides, it's really hard for Shawn to do math |

We should have had this contest back in february when I had a nice night of throwing up 26 times in 6 hours before having surgeons remove one of my internal organs and not eating for 3 days, losing a total of 13 pounds in 3 days. I started at 120. It was not healthy.

Damn that sounds like it sucked. I once had some "minor" surgery in my mouth, the healing process didn’t go as planned. I didn’t have a single drink for 5 days, or one bite of food for 7. My tongue was so swollen I couldn’t get a straw in, but when I tried it just scraped a bunch of green shit that was growing on it off. Got to go to the hospital dehydrated of course, they couldn’t get a vein, but kept on chasing them and finally got one the fourth time . I was 15 at the time and when it started I was about 110lbs, by the end I was around 92lbs.... Its no fun when you cant stop drooling |

At least while in the hospital my padre informed me that he murdered the neighbor's cactus.
Yes, he murdered the cactus. It killed too many of our footballs. |
|
Damn..I'd like to join in but..November doesn't give me enough time to lose enough to be competitive! I need a few months!
|
|
That is a Major NO,NO in AZ. Cactus are Marjory protected by law. |
|
|
I disagree... Look at it this way. Subject B could, potentially, lose about 30 pounds. Now compare that to someone who's slightly overweight, but quite frankly, only has about 20 pounds to lose. They can't be competitive. I think they should either do it as proportion of weight lost, or 'do both'. Hey, it's the ARFCOM way... |
|
|
Oooohhhhh, I'm in.
If I keep up my current pace, I should be able to drop an easy 25-30 pounds by then. |
|
I don't care if we push the weigh in date out more. I just threw out a date.
|
|
A group weigh in foto is a must!
Then a 3 mile motivational kick off run! |
|
So, what you're saying is that the ARFCOM way is to argue about what's fair until the contest is over, then we'll call it off? |

The TV show "The Biggest Loser" ain't got shit on the AZ Arfcom crowd!
|
|

|
... This is all good news bro! |
|
|
So where are we at with this thing? I'm up for the weigh in on Friday night. I can be there around 6:40 pm. Who else is going to be there? Are we setting new definite dates or going with the initial ones? I have been tossing around the idea of a serious diet for the last few months and this is a good way to get some motivation.
