When I teach my kid how to count, I'm going to be like, "ace, two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight, nine, ten, jack, queen, king, ace."

Good call, thought it'd be confusing at first, but your method will be very helpful for hi/lo games.

I don't know about the prop bet aspect, but in terms of long-term weight loss I'm pretty sure that any sort of radical alteration of your diet won't help. If you want to keep the weight off, it's probably better to treat yourself but less frequently.

So far I've just been trying to cut out 500 cal/day in stuff I'm not going to miss ... no mayo on my sandwich, no stealing a piece of my wife's cheese, avoiding the break room at work where someone's always putting pastries and stuff, etc.

I'm definitely shooting for sustainability here. Did no one tell you about the "keep it off" sustained bet after this one?

I am so torn. I want so in on this, but the summer is the worst time for me in terms of my weight fluctuations. I tend to gain in summer and lose in winter.

Still have time to decide.........

I know what you mean, I am going on my annual fishing trip in a couple of weeks, and I know that that will probably set me back a week or two, but you just got to do it sometime.

Wait, did Jesse get my check already? That would be pretty surprising.

Okay, well, if you haven't received it in a few days let me know but I might not get around to fixing the problem until next week. My wife is probably going to lose ~15 lbs in the next few days.
