SenorKeed's Fall Weight Loss Challenge

Oh they won’t believe me (and I’ll probably lie if I’m over 170 and say I’m below). Just want to be able to say hey I offered you a buyout after I crush them on Friday.

Edit: obviously they will see me weigh in on Friday, just realized that’s what you probably meant. When I offer them a buyout on Thursday I’ll tell them what I actually weigh if I’m under but I won’t let them see me on the scale.

Yeah, yesterday I was working on a potato/plateau portmanteau but couldn’t nail it.

I’ve also been holding onto something involving generational scars and referencing the potato famine (if you go low carb).

Plateautato sounds great but looks like a mess.

172.4 lbs this morning. 1,792 calories yesterday, 700 from sushi, 840 from burgers no bun, 257 from two double vodka soda. Starting low carb zero salt today. Weighed in on bet scale, 171.8 lbs.

What would be the point of lying about this. Just now I realized that today I have only had coffee and some leftover roasted potatoes. The only way I’m not going to eat actual protein later tonight is if I get hammered and pass out, but maybe 1 day of having the prestige of a potato man is worth it?

At least you still got your potatoes in!

172.2 lbs this morning. Zero salt diet is harder than potato diet. I made a soup with 4.5 lbs chuck, quart and a half of no salt chicken stock, 3 lbs mushrooms, a big onion, parsley, green onions, and 3 cans of coconut milk. It would be delicious if it had salt. It doesn’t have salt.

It’s too hard to track calories from soup so I’m not. I had three small bowls of the soup.

171.0 lbs this morning. This low carb zero salt shit sucks. Headache and low energy. Drank like 1.5 gallons of water yesterday, going to do the same today and tomorrow. Then cut it in half on Wednesday and down to 1 quart on Thursday.

Feeling like crap really kicked in at about 48 hours with low carbs for me.

Now’s the time for the potato famine line.

Here for the sweatsuit and spit bucket photos. I have a very specific fetish.

I meant to post this earlier but there was an Australian guy who ate nothing but potatoes for a year and lost a pile of weight. To be exact, over the course of the year he lost 53 kg (117 lb). He started a business called Spud Fit based on potato diets (“spud” is slang for potato, not sure if you have that word in the US).

yes we do

“Pass the spuds, Ace,” is something you hear with regularity around country-home dinner tables, and why Trump is President.

170.4 lbs this morning. Two bowls of soup and two hard boiled eggs. Ready for this to be over.

how the hell do you start a business based on the potato diet. The whole diet is pretty thoroughly outlined in its name.

It’s kind of the same for all diets though, isn’t it? Eat less, exercise a little more. Not a lot of rocket science involved.

Well if you really just eat potatoes I think eventually you’ll reach like a 22 BMI. They’re just bland and boring. You might die of protein deficiency in the interim though, who knows.

168.6 lbs this morning. Two bowls of soup and two hard boiled eggs yesterday. Going to eat soup and eggs today and then switch to avocados, eggs, and unsalted ribeye this evening until weigh in. Confirmed weight on bet scale today, 168.6, and this was after I drank a morning cup of coffee, probably 12 oz.

One of the guys I am betting with was kind of a dick to me and another coworker yesterday so I’m not even offering a buyout today or tomorrow.
