The four roommates at the bar one night.

Today after work, the four roommates and Roscoe got together and decided it was time–for real this time–to try a weight loss challenge.  Nick, Lauren, Sarah, Roscoe, and I have combined to gain over 180 pounds since we moved in March 1, I think… Give or take 125 pounds.

We’ll all weigh ourselves in November 1, and see who can lose the most percentage of their original weight by February 28, 2009.

I’m not sure what the others weigh in at, but I am at 267.  That’s the same I weighed since I quit my Lifetime membership a year ago.  Some may argue I replaced muscle mass with fat, but I don’t know.  I’ve done a ton of exercising since then, like the time I ran in place for seven minutes, or the time I chased Roscoe around the living room.

We are yet to determine the prize for the winner, but my suggestion is all but the first place winner have to post naked pictures on this blog.
