There are 55 days left to lose as much weight as I possibly can to win $800 at work (aka new rear end for the Jeep). There are several people in the competition which I have monitored closely. All of which have yet to lose a pound. Today at 4pm I will take up Jogging (soft J for those Anchorman Fans) for the second time this year. In the Spring I dropped 20lbs in 6 weeks. I am hoping to complete the same. My diet will consist of Chicken, Tuna, Fruits, Veggies, and Water. Nothing Else except some Fiber1 to keep me regular It will be a strict 1500 calorie a day diet. As my body uses approx. 2200 calorie's right now I should be burning roughly 2 pounds a week. At the time of the initial weigh in everyone was uncomfortable stripping down to their undies to get a proper weight and there were no rules laid out on stripping down or not, I saw this as an opportunity. As some of you know I'm perfectly fine showing off my beauty. At the time of final weigh in I will be stripping down boxing match style to win this competition. That should afford me roughly 5lbs as I had my keys, wallet, blackberry, and 2 liters of water in the belly at the time. Currently the weigh in was 221.5 Pounds I will be documenting my progress daily in this thread. It will be an intense 55 days and I encourage anyone that wants to get out and jog a few laps beside me to please do so! I know this is probably the most unhealthy way to lose weight but it's for the Jeep and the Jeep always gets what it wants. I plan to continue the healthier lifestyle after the competition but not as intensely. Let the fun begin!!!! Day 55 Pic....

Well good luck man! I too need to shed a few pounds, but I can't get the wife to go away But seriously I too have been eating better and intend to shed some lbs, I currently stand at 5" 11" at 280lbs. I'd like to be around 6' 9" @ 280lbs but since I can't get taller I'll have to get smaller. 200lbs is my goal. Good Luck May the Force be With You!! Rick oh yeah you should shave that body hair off that's gotta be at least 10lbs HAHAHAHA

Davidson, i would enjoy to go biking but my bike is currently broken. the hub has let go, the gears do not shift right and when you pedal hard the wheel actually rubs the inner rear forks from the torque. I will also need new brake levers. im hoping to get a giant rincon disc for parts in the next few days. Rick, Come for a jog. i go to the TAAC grounds at 4:15

4:15 am I am asleep, 4:15 pm I'm working. Also I have two bad knees and the surgeon told me to save running for times when I feel my life is in danger. IE when there's only one doughnut left @ Tim's or when the liquor store is close to closing. You know important stuff like that.

i guess updating daily seemed a bit ridiculous.
I went for a jog last friday and severely messed up my foot. so now it's on to stationary biking. I have been sticking to the diet and exercising for 30 hard minutes a night plus 2 sets of 25 pushups then a set of as many i can possibly muster. This has netted me a 2 pound loss of weight. I've been down this road many times before, the first 10 pounds are gravy (mmmm gravy) the ten after the ten are the hardest.
next update Friday September 24th.
If anyone has a stationary bike and would like to stationary bike together we can set them up side by side and watch Coronation Street.

Well it's September 24th and time for another update. don't know if anyone actually reads this thread anymore so I guess it's just for my own self gratification Weighed in this morning at 215. In 8 days I have lost 6.5 pounds which I am pretty pumped about. I'm feeling better, I guess the way to describe it would be more "empty" I'm not nearly as bloated feeling and for the girlfriend she's happy I don't dutch oven her nearly as much at night. Also another weird thing that's happened both times when I started dropping weight was my snoring stopped, pretty crazy. Unfortunately I know that losing 6.5 pounds a week is not going to happen every week, but if I stick to the diet and continue to exercise a new rear end for the Jeep is that much closer to being in my possession!!!!! who needs to save for a down payment for a house anyway? living at home is where it's at.

Great job Brandon, you snore less bec ur less overweight, Dr told me that my snoring was most likely related to my weight. I guess I have a fat neck?

just got word that there are two ladies that have lost 15 pounds, and since unfortunately we are going by percentage of weight lost, i estimate that is roughly 10%
I am definitely at a disadvantage starting at 221 pounds. to match their percentage i have to lose 22 pounds. F@#K!
time to pop in the P90X dvd's and bust some skulls!
