    Men have much a larger lean mass so that they almost always lose faster. :) *hugs*

    There's the added bonus of men not having to deal with some of the water weight fluctuations us ladies do, too. Our hormones can throw a nice wrench in the works thanks to TOM, ovulation and things related to those.

    But if you start measuring at the right time, you look like an AMAZING weight-loser. LOL. I'm down 4lbs in as many days.

    So if you want to win...cheat by timing it to your TOM and then make the contest for 1 week, ;)

    2 options:
    - you eat less and lose weight quicker
    - you sneak weightgainer into his food so he doesn't lose.

    One of these is the sensible, ethical choice but its down to your morals and goals ;)

    my father and I are competing right now.
    I've lucked out and am beating him thus far. It's great motivation.

    men lose faster and easier than women in general. Maybe consider competing on percentage or on how many times you all stay under your calorie goal.
