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. [/ QUOTE ] This is what I was thinking. A guy who's ~200 probably has about ten easy water/waste/sugar pounds to blow, but after that , he's gonna be in trouble.

[ QUOTE ] 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. [/ QUOTE ] This is water weight. [/ QUOTE ] water weight counts too

Re: Prop Bet: Lose 15 pounds of body weight in 72 hrs.
i think it'd be more interesting to gaine 15 pounds in 3 days.
i think i lost 7 pounds one wrestling practice. 15 for a 200 guy is childs play.

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. [/ QUOTE ] Um, yeah, I think it's agreed that this is pretty obvious he's not going to lose fifteen pounds of fat. To the OP: I think this is pretty doable. A couple of suggestions for your friend: - immediately before initial weigh-in, chug a gallon of water (this has been mentioned, but I think it's very important) - get an enema the day before the final weigh-in; I've heard that people can lose around five pounds just by having one of these

If the dude can drink a ton of water before weigh-in, then this is REALLY easy, burger or not. It's not close.

Re: Prop Bet: Lose 15 pounds of body weight in 72 hrs.
I'll let others elaborate on tricks for losing scale weight very quickly.
However, if I were the person beting against your friend losing the weight, I would put some pretty serious restrictions on what he could do before his initial (i.e., heavy) weigh-in.

Re: Prop Bet: Lose 15 pounds of body weight in 72 hrs.
make it 25 and it's tougher. it is very easy for a 200 lb guy to shed 15 lbs of water. cut some holes in a garbage bag and put it on your torso, put on about five sweatsuits and a coat and keep your heart pumping for about an hour and there goes 10 lbs.
by easy I don't mean fun. i think i've done 15 lbs in 24 hrs before and 10+ on many many occasions
