Default 15 pounds in 30 days. Doable?

My buddy and I like to make goofy prop bets (nothing major, usually $5-20) and he said with his advise he could help me lose 15 pounds in 1 month. I said there is no way this is possible given my stats (5'8'' 160, 16-18% body fat, fairly inactive lifestyle, 23yo going on 24), but I'd consider it a challenge.

Do you guys think this is possible? Should I give him odds?

The side that says I can't do it.

I think if I weighed like ~200, I could, but not at ~160.

So you're betting that you can't lose 15 pounds. I feel like this should be exploitable somehow.

I actually do want to lose weight though.

Also, how possible is it to get body fat from 15% to 8% in 60 days?
