If the money is really important to you and you don't care about your health, you can easily do this by not eating.

yes and no...i've tried this and after a while you just level out...you'd be surprised how much of your daily calorie burning is from your digestive system...you're better off eating a bunch of low calorie foods...the jury is still out on the "negative calorie effect" (foods that take more calories to digest than they contain) but I believe it...I've lost way more weight over a week period of eating apples/oranges/brocolli/spinach periodically throughout the day than i have over a week of starving myself...and i've done both. obviously i'm no nutritionist or dietician, but i know my body better than 99% of people know theirs...so that's just my take

Dude don't do it. I don't think it's worth it for $1500, imo... Trying to lose 60 lbs without proper program will make you gain more weight in the end. Do it gradually, meaning, start eating healthy and exercise. There is no short cut to losing weight.

not possible imo... as an overweight person who diets - regains - diets etc you cant do this. i weigh about 250 myself right now and would find it hard to get to 210 in 60 days. also, i have made bets like this for substantial money b4 but the want of food will prevail... i suggest not drinking cuz when ur drunk youll just say [censored] it and eat. gl though i need to diet again too [censored] college food

lose 40lbs. cut the other 20lbs through sauna room. proceed to pass health problems lane and collect your $1500.

the "want of food" is a non issue...I am eating plenty...just salads with spinach and whole vegetables w/ light dressing....sure a slice of papa johns sounds good, as does some in n out burger...but that sh!t will be there in 6 months when I can eat in moderation...the trash food is out of my system now and the occasional craving is quite manageable...


and yes, i plan to do the weight cutting at the end... I'm not sure how effective it will be since most of the "water weight" I would cut was the first 10 lbs that i lost...and ya, i probably won't succeed...that is why i'm getting 3:1...It was pretty dumb to take the bet, much less initiate it, but whatever...if it gets me to 215, it'll be worth the 500 for the motivation i was apparently otherwise unable to come up with....plus i can always buy my way out... i said it before, i'm not gonna kill myself to do this...just eat crazy healthy and do tons of exercise... i never said i was gonna starve myself and take up crystal meth... i'll update on 12/1 or something...

pretty much. plan on cutting a tonne of water the day before. drink a gallon of water a day the week of and cut the water 24 hrs before weigh in, you will lose a lot through urine, then go sauna suit. (consult doctor etc etc) go to a wrestling forum to learn how to cut water weight properly. eat healthy, exercise a lot, and be safe. good luck.
