how much does liposuction cost?

Totally depends on how overweight he is. When I rowed d1 crew, I could lose +-5 pounds within 24 hours based on how much I ate and how many calories we burned during practice, but this was the max. 15 is hard if he doesn't have extra fat he can lose.

This is water weight.

I had a friend who was a boxer who could probably have done this. I saw him lose 7 lb. in a few hours on the day of a weigh-in, and he was already ripped to the bone. He jumped rope in a rubber suit in a sauna, used some kind of suppository to take a giant crap and made weight with room to spare.

Oh yea. and the answer for your friend is Liposuction.

The weight loss would almost all have to be water weight. To lose 15 pounds of fat you'd have to burn 52,500 calories that is like running 350 miles in 72hrs.

You are most definitly not going to burn much fat, if any in 3 days. It may add a negligible amount. All the weight that is going to be lost is water, and glycogen stores. When I cut, I go very low carb during the week, and then Saturday, I allow myself to drink, Sunday I can eat whatever I want. I gain 7-10lbs on a sat/sun, and lose it all after a couple days back on the diet. This bet is ridic simple.

WOW, I'm suprised you guys think it would be so easy. I think the the first 10 pounds would be a snap, but that last 5 would be a bitch.

also, nobody is taking into account that he has to eat at Burger King atleast once a day.

IIRC, one of the fighters on the first season of the UFC reality show on Spike TV cut 20 lbs. in one day.

The first 10 pounds could be easily lost by not drinking any water and not eating. The last 5 is a 1 hour sauna and a laxative. I was out in the field once and didn't eat for 8 days straight, but I was taking in several gallons of water a day, and not working hard enough to profusely sweat. I lost 30 pounds. I realize that I had 5 more days, but I put in 0 thought or effort into losing the weight. He can do it, and it will be easy if he tries hard enough.
