Just sharing some information and nutrition http://blahblahblah.spammer.com/
yes, we get it. you've spammed this thread twice already.0 -
I'm not quite sure why everyone is feeling the need to attack you--this site is supposed to be hepful and full of support! Even if one disagrees, constructive critisizm would be the way to go instead of just tearing you down! Holy moly.
I don't think eating a lot before hand or fasting at the end is the best way to win this bet. Make goals- then stick to them! Find workout classes at your gym, if you are going with people who come to expect you to be there you will feel more accountable to get those workouts in. Also, try to plan all meals ahead. I've found what helps me most is to make a meal plan for the week and seperate my food into snack sizes and easy to grab meals. I have a tendancy to overeat at work with everyone bringing in food for the office or wanting to go out to eat, so having plenty of snacks on hand has helped me control what I eat. Use this site! Friend some people who will help keep you accountable to your calorie intake, and give you the support you need.
I don't think there is anything wrong with a competition like this- a kick in the *kitten* can't be a bad thing! The way I understood your reference to The Biggest Loser was to track the percentage of what you had lost instead of just going by pounds, why is this so bad?! And hopefully by the end you will feel so great you will continue with the habits you started building while competing with your friend.
Good luck

Blah blah. Wish I saw this yesterday, I would have told you to carb up heavy and eat tons of sodium so you'd retain more water. Forget all these people.... They're very uptight.
Red wine 24-48 hrs before a final weigh in will help drop water weight.
The best thing you can do that is actually healthy is severely increase your water intake. Get stuff moving.
No alcohol the whole time. Absolutely no sodium in the final two weeks. good luck!0 -
ANY SUGGESTIONS? I figure before tomorrow's initial weigh-in, I'll eat and drink alot to get my weight up, and then at the end I'll maybe fast for a day or so to get it lower....but other than that any strategies? I figure I'll just go super clean in the diet for 2 months and also try to be super dedicated in racking in the exercise, and we'll see where it takes me....my guess is over the course of 60 days its really going to all come down to mental toughness.
You should do the challenge by Body Fat % loss instead of "weight" in pounds on a scale. That way you are not just doing cardio and trying to lose muscle mass for the sake of winning.
Suggest body fat loss. Huge difference and it'll change your composition of your body 0 -
Okay, now I'm confused... Is this a head-to-head bet with a single coworker who talked you into putting up "Vegas" money (more than you're comfortable with)--and who you think is going to take drastic Biggest Loser-style measures to win--or is this a friendly, health-conscious endeavor with a bunch of people, who have all ponied up a little money as incentive to help you all eat better and work out?
Well it was the former until that plan was criticized for being unhealthy. So he had to backtrack a little bit.

So you're starting off by cheating, and then want to embark on a strategy that is bad for your health.
Good luck. I'd say "don't do this."
This. Purposefully jacking with your weight to appear to have lost more is cheating.
Also your insistence that people are being rude when you asked for our opinions is silly. Don't expect people to agree with you when you want to appear to weight more so you can appear to have lost more.
(Because that's what it is. You won't have actually lost anymore real weight. You're just making it look like you did.)0 -
These are lines from the original post:
head-to-head bet against one of my colleagues
for cash money.. quite a bit more than I really want to lose (this guy thinks we're in Vegas or something)
we're going to see who can lose the most weight
may do [a cleanse]
I'll eat and drink alot to get my weight up
at the end I'll maybe fast for a day or so to get it lower
Read those. Read them again.
Now read them one more time.
This is positive? This is healthy? This is the right outlook on health?
Of course not. We have planned cheating at the beginning and end, we have an OP who directly says he may do a "cleanse" to kick off a dramatic weight drop, and we have a significant financial incentive ("more money than I really want to lose) to drop as much weight as possible.
Everything about this is wrong. There is nothing remotely healthy or positive about any of this.0 -
I'm not sure how this is ANYTHING BUT POSITIVE??????
I think you are inferring something in your own experience and over-laying it on us. For us, this is just a fun game to help us socialize and stay clean. As per what happens after day 60? Well we can each go our own ways w/ god, but as for me, I play on just carrying on, perhaps re-evaluating and perhaps changing up my regimen (maybe more weights, maybe more biking, who knows).
You're still not sure how it's anything but positive, even after I've explained it several times?
You plan to start and end by cheating. That's positive?
You want to lose weight as quickly as possible to win a short-term contest. That's positive?
No. It's not positive. If you want "a fun game to help you socialize" while being healthy, then create health-based goals. Set individual realistic weight loss goals and the person who comes closest to meeting that goal - and not exceeding it by some large amount - is the winner. See who can meet their exact calorie goal the most days of the month. See who can increase their bench press the most or do the most pullups. Arrange a 5K at the end of 60 days and winner takes the pot.
Seeing who can lose the most body mass in a set period of time is not a health-based goal.
This entire "contest," in my opinion, is based in a very unhealthy mindset. Maybe there's some chance that at the end of the contest your mindset will actually turn from something unhealthy to health? I guess? It seems that's what some people are arguing. I don't buy it. I see nothing but negatives here. Everything is wrong. The motivation is wrong, the methods are poor, and the nature of the "contest" itself encourages the participants to ignore health, not to improve it.
you keep quoting your own thoughts and not listening to what I'm saying. as for the cheating you keep harping on about - I've said multiple times that we won't be doing that. so you've heard nothing Iv'e said past my first thread - quoting my original thread, which I admitted several times was just half-formed thinking. as per short term? we're not freaking married dude - 60 days is about as long as a couple of co-workers can handle a non-married goal at work. we all have our long term goals. why do you keep assuming I'm an unintelligent, un-thoughtful person w/o possibly as much knowledge as you. If you didn't like the idea - you've said your peace - I get it - your attitude is your way or no way ?
Everything about this is wrong?!??! so trolly mate...so very trolly. such one-way, narrow minded thinking is rampant in our society though. why not just rest assured that you've gotten under-my-collar and now go p1ss off? I heard you . you are 100% wrong in your adaptability to new input, and in your ready negative characterization of other's ideas, and in your flexibility. if I need a "guru of no" in the future, I know who to ping.0 -
Good luck man! We have these contests at my work as well. I've even won a few. I will tell you though almost everybody myself included gained the weight back in a relatively short time.0

I keep quoting the original post because that was the honest one. Everything since has been attacking me personally and backtracking on everything you said in the beginning.
I have never said you are "an unintelligent, un-thoughtful person w/ possibly as much knowledge as you." I am criticizing your contest as unhealthy. I advised you not to do it. Yes, I said my piece.. but you and others keep responding to me and asking me questions so of course I'll respond to them :laugh:0 -
hey guys - I don't know how it ultimately happened, but looks like I'm now in a head-to-head bet against one of my colleagues who also wants to lose a comparable amount of weight (30-50 pounds). And its for cash money!! yikes. in fact, quite a bit more than I really want to lose (this guy thinks we're in Vegas or something...sheesh) - but I guess that's the point...if it were less then perhaps I wouldn't feel the pressure.
So, starting Monday morning (3/25) for 60 days (actually 10 weeks total, so until the end of May) we're going to see who can lose the most weight, "Biggest Loser" style. I'm not really a betting man, and moreover I overall ascribe to the slow and steady wins-the-race lot , but I've been stagnant for a while and think this might be good for me. I am currently around 220, and he's at 203 (but he's a few inches shorter). I think we are pretty close actually as per percentage body fat, although I think I'm a little higher overall, which theoretically makes it a bit easier for me to lose more. I don't think we'll be able to lose so much that it will seriously start draining my muscle mass...but I've decided I'm NOT going to do a starvation diet...that's why we chose 60 days since we figured starvation isn't sustainable over that many days. That being said, this guy has been known to do a "cleanse" now and again so may do one of those....we'll see....
ANY SUGGESTIONS? I figure before tomorrow's initial weigh-in, I'll eat and drink alot to get my weight up, and then at the end I'll maybe fast for a day or so to get it lower....but other than that any strategies? I figure I'll just go super clean in the diet for 2 months and also try to be super dedicated in racking in the exercise, and we'll see where it takes me....my guess is over the course of 60 days its really going to all come down to mental toughness.
GOOD LUCK! Don't listen to all the mean crap people say. Some people on here are very mean and consider themselves a pro. I mean what if you DO end up making this a long term goal? Or what if you DO keep the weight off? These people just think negative. Keep it up. Listen to your body. Don't harm it. And if it WORKS FOR YOU, then DO IT!

So which part was false and just a mistake typed in haste:
The part where you planned on artificially inflating your weight at the start?
The part where the bet is for more money than you're comfortable losing?
The part where the contest is to see who can drop the most pounds in 2 months?
The part where you may do a "cleanse"?
The part where you'll fast at the end to artificially deflate your weight?
Or maybe all of them were just typos? I mean, the keys are like right next to each other.0 -

I think a bit of competition can be healthy, but not like this.
Why don't you, rather than do a weight loss challenge, do an 'inches lost challenge'. That may at least encourage you both to eat healthily and exercise - perhaps lifting?
Or, rather than do it for money, get a few more people involved, have weekly weigh ins and get everyone that participates to bring in something healthy to eat, like fruit, or nuts, or porridge, and whoever loses the most wins that food.
I think the way you are currently planning to do it will encourage you to not eat enough. And even if you don't think you will be swayed to do that, what about your colleague?0 -

My husband and I are in Gold's Gym 12- week challenge with cash prizes at the end. I say, "I'm in it to win it" but my husband is in it for the discount trainer's sessions, which is fine. Our motivations are different, but it is getting us into the gym. Husband says, "If he didn't pay for the trainer he would not go to the gym". I may not have a chance to win with all US Gold's Gyms in the challenge, but I can dream. Here are some of the things I am doing:
1. Using MFP to record food and exercise.
2. Working out 3X a week with trainer and 1-2X a week for cardio
a. You can get cardio at home shoveling snow 30 minutes: 229 calories; 2 hours yard work: 444 calories
3. Give up or limit alcohol (empty calories)
4. Drink plenty of water
5. Aim for 7-8 hours of sleep
6. I use a Nike Fuel Band to challenge myself to 3200 Nike Fuel a day. You can also use a pedometer for 10,000 steps a day.
a. When 10,000 steps gets to easy, change your goal by 10%.
7. Checking out recipes on www.skinnytaste.com - I even served some "lighter calorie" dishes for New Year's Eve and every one loved them and did not notice lower calories.
8. Find a work out buddy/walking buddy to motivate you to Just Do It.
a. Hardest part is taking that first step out the door to the gym
9. Think of the gym as your recess - like in elementary school.
10. Find a cheerleader who is rooting for your success. Put nay-sayers who may not contribute to your success on the back burner for now.
11. Put Girl Scout cookies in freezer.
I hope this helps you with your challenge. Dianne0 -
60 days = 8 weeks
@ 30 total pounds lost equals roughly 4 lbs/week.
PAY ATTENTION TO TOTAL CALORIES CONSUMED PER DAY!
As to continue progress, I'd suggest to knock one major diet item off each week.
week1= eliminate nighttime snacking, replace with a protien shake, 30 mins excercise/day
week2= replace daytime snacks with carrots or broccoli, 45 mins exercise/day
week3= cut carbs by 10%, 45mins exercise/day
and so on.0 -

thanks for the list troll.
Look, you asked for opinions and suggestions. I have given my opinion and advice, which has been consistent with the opinions and advice of a few other members.
You don't like that advice. Fine. We get it. But calling us names is not the way to solve the problem.
Remember, none of us got fat because our instincts and thought processes concerning weight and food are healthy and productive. Take a step back from your ego and honestly evaluate your motivations and methods. Are these really healthy, long-term solutions?0 -
I totally appreciate your advice, just not your egotistical, trolly method.
I'm not a troll!

Good point. Maybe I'll start a thread explaining to MFP what my plan is, then change everything about it when someone notices it's underhanded and deceitful. And insult the people who do anything other than congratulate me on my terrible plan.0 -

Yes. This. I wonder if there'd be some kind of competition for it. Think I could somehow find a way to insult people MORE at the beginning so that way when I retract my opinions, it'll look like I'm not as mean as I started out to be?0 -

If it hasn't already happened yet, I keep waiting for some big lawsuit against an employer who encourages or worse, sponsors one of these biggest loser type things.
It seems like such a dangerous thing for employers to condone or participate in. I guess the health of the employee is not as important as how they look.
Very sad.
And no one can convince me that two guys in an office won't become overly competitive in this type of scenario. It's just a bad idea all around.
I'm with johnnythan and his list of trolls. Pick some other thing to compete in besides weight loss. The 5K was a great idea, so was a pullups or burpees competition. There are so many ways to measure fitness. Why would anyone buy into a weight loss contest?0 -
I think this is a great idea. I hope you win. I'm overly competitive whenever anyone else sees my progress and starts to follow a little bit. I can only imagine if money were to get involved. It doesn't sound like youre looking at it unhealthily, so long as you don't lose yourself in the process.
And if you do, I'm sure all the MFP trolls will be here to I TOLD YOU SO to death. 0 -
