Me too. 10% is probably an unhealthy goal since I'm lolfat so I'll set my goal at 1 lb/week. I weighed in at 197 this morning, so that's 7.1% by August 25th.

I've gained almost 15 pounds during my wife's pregnancy and I'm not even carrying a baby.

One pound a week is healthy I think. I lost 10 in 6 weeks (4/13 I was about ~~~220).

I need to cut 500 kcals a day to lose one pound a week.

I see my heart doc on June 24 and I want to be 200-205.

Playing along here helps my motivation.

you're very supportive.

I've lost 2 pounds so far FYI. On pace....

If Leroy or BBB is willing to help, might I suggest that you post a goal in line with the OP and if we lose, in lieu of paying cash we get a custom title of Jesse/avoidthe9to5's choosing for a month?

that is a good idea - however, I have already lost 15 pounds and the next 10 is going to be more difficult. Let's see that would be 5% which should not be that tough but I think that I am out of synch with the prop bet since, as I said, I started 4/13 when my wife left town to visit her family.

Also, that would be 10 weeks or sometime in August - I will need to read the entire thread to see what the rules are.

Thanks for the recommendation

meh, if some folks are betting real currency then i prefer that everyone should have to.

Dude it's not real currency it's full tilt dollars what can you possibly buy with those?

I do not understand the rules so I will just lurk. Thanks

btw Another source that recommends vodka and soda water.

That's unlikely to happen. I'll just lurk too I guess.

or you guys could just transfer me dollars on full tilt, or exchange real dollars for someone's full tilt dollars (calli, if you play at oaks, i know there are posters in this forum who can make it happen. mike, i think you play on ftp already?)

the more the merrier imo

btw guys i would participate in this challenge except i don't need to lose weight

if you have money on stars and that is the only thing preventing you from doing this then we can work something out also. obviously feel free to PM me any time.

I have money in FTP and I go by Oaks from time to time - I have been on the lookout for Calli but I have not spotted him yet...

I suspect that there are some 2+2 that play at California Grand but I have not id'ed any yet. I want to avoid them less they take my money....

Unfortunately, I don't seem to overlap hours with anyone now that Jesse's gone. I've already tried to contact Batman (dunno if he plays online but I have an external contact for him so that was easy to try) and a 2+2 poster called "Oaks Prop" who posted about a FTP-for-PS exchange in the P2P transfer thread.

Swiftarrow, Mike_757, and obi_wang all play there too but I've never met them and I think swift and obi play late at night. I know bdaddy and Alan Bostick from MS also play there but I've never met them either (I think Jesse pointed out bdaddy from afar but I couldn't pick him out of a lineup unless he was wearing the same hat he was wearing on that day).

Another barrier is that I may also be down to my last 1-2 sessions there; baby's due either June 12 or June 22 depending on who you believe so basically starting next week any session could be my last session [for a while]. I'm going up to Seattle for a wedding so if I meet up with any Seattle folks (Pid Koker? antneye?), I might inquire about buying FTP$ off of them. But I'm not even 100% sure I'm going to play.

I work reasonably close to the Oaks so I could always drop by in my lunch hour if there are any daytime players who are reading this who want to help me out. I'll front the cash and trust you'll ship me online if distrust is a barrier. I believe Jesse and asmitty can vouch that I (a) am not a freak and (b) have enough money so that the amount that I'd be requesting ($50) is not large enough to turn me into a freak.

Sorry. I'm strictly East Coast.....NY here.

I still may join this thing....when do i need to decide by?

Start Date: (No more entries after June 1st)

i'll probably get in on this

3:1 in favor bdaddy has the hat on right now.

calli, i only have stars $$$
i'm looking fwd to collecting some live peanuts this weekend...hope you can make it!

I'll let you know on Fri. I fly in Saturday afternoon and am meeting up with friends for dinner. If we start late, I might play some in the afternoon, and if we end early I might play some late at night. I was originally planning on staying near the airport but now it looks like I'll be staying in north Seattle near the university.

I'd be surprised at this. I mean there might be one or two lurkers, but that place is probably the softest casino in the bay area.

Calli - bring the baby to the casino. Would be good for the little squirt.
