I'll add $10/lb up to 100 lbs each person he sponsors as long as it isn't more than 5 people and $5 for the next two hundred with a catch. At the time of collecting your money, I have to be < or = 165 lbs. I'm 5'9" 206 right now. Two months ago I was 235.

Wouldn't this be incentive for you to NOT lose weight?

Bison,

Then for Dids to fully collect he has to be down to 31 by the end of the year? I am pretty sure that dropping 300 that much so quickly (without the stoamch stapeling) would not necessarily be healthy and Dids should not weigh 31 pounds. Otherwise great idea.

The first 100 pounds is heavily incentivized. Beyond that I just wanted to ensure that there was no point of no returns.

Bison, did you miss my post?

To refresh, I'm 21, 260, and 5'8.

Re: Fatties. My money where your mouth is.
 
FWIW- my goal is basically 200 lbs. Given my frame and the fact that when I lift I put on muscle mass like crazy, me at 200 would be pretty reasonable. This may change as I get closer and still don't like things.

I'm not picking anyone yet, duder. Dids is in, but the other 4 will find out tomorrow, noon pacific. At which point many more fat people will resent me for not picking on them.

Dids,

Count me in for 1/2 of what Bison pays you. I don't care about any other fat people. GO DIDS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Btw my commitment despite my poorness should inspire other people, ahem.

Re: Fatties. My money where your mouth is.
 
FWIW- The contestants can decide, but I'd prefer that this run till next may. Not so much 'cause I want money, but 'cause the continued incentive is valuable.

dcasper70 05-10-2006 12:16 PM

Re: Fatties. My money where your mouth is.
 
So Dids can collectively get $18.50/lb for the first 100!

$1850... nice take Dids!
