Ok so I want to do a ridiculous challenge for myself and would like to get some action from people here. I posted this in brazilian lp but I don't think I will be getting enough action from there.
Here is the deal:
Few years ago I went through bad health problem (cancer). Got treated, am fine now. During and up to now I stopped working out completely and gained insane amount of weight. Before treatment I was weighing in around 95 kg, my height is about 1'92 m.
About a month and half ago I joined a gym and started working out again. I weighed in at 125kg's. Yesterday I weighed myself and am now at 120kg. Dropped 5kg and I am not eating as best as I could, this in 45 days.
BET: Starting as soon as possible, I am to lose 15kg (33 pounds) in one month. It's an insanely high amount of kg's and I don't really care, I just want to challenge myself to my limits. I like it like that!
how to keep it honest:
1) I will video myself weighing in at my home or if people want I can go to some professional facility of mutual accordance and weigh in there. The video will contain me saying some password to guarantee that I filmed it that day and will be posted on youtube.
2) Escrow. Some trusty lp'er to take care of all the money.
3) For what its worth, I give my word. I have made a bunch of prop bets with many lp'ers and I think they can vouch for me paying/getting paid.
I am willing to accept bets up to 10k, possibly more. I have not thought about what are just odds. I read just now this guy who wants to lose 25kg in 3 months who is getting 2-1 odds. I think his bet is easy. For mine, I was thinking 1.5-1 odds, but maybe I am hustling myself.
I hope to get suggestions from people as to how to make things as just as possible.
Reason for this: I wanna get back in a good shape and making the bet motivates me 1000% more than normally.
Peace.

It might be the opposite ggplz. Since my body is used to working out now, it means I have to keep constantly increasing either my workout or diet to continue the weight loss. When you start from scratch, you can workout very little and have drastic turn around since that little work out for your body is huge. |

well, when you start working out and have like 0 muscles you start to gain muscle at first which increases your body weight b/c muscle weighs more than fat
also obv once u are past this stage for the most part its easier to burn fat b/c u have the muscles to do so as well as increased stamina |
