Motivation? A prop bet is in order

Resolution: turn back the clock and regain youthful fitness.

Additional motivation: seeing a friend and fellow blogger blow a fuse about excess weight.

Solution: a prop bet.

Objective: Shed flab;

Terms: Weigh-in either at next Winter Gathering (if both parties attend) or January 1st, 2010 (with results verified by acceptable third party);

Targets: PL needs to weigh in at 160 lbs; Riggs 220 lbs;

Stakes: If either party fails to make their target weight, they will give the other party a bottle of single malt Scotch of the other's choosing (price limit TBD).

If anyone else wants to participate, please drop me a line in the comments and I'll add you to the bet.

I don't want to be added to the bet. I'd just lose horribly.

Besides, losing weight by December would be too late for me. I need to shed the lbs by October so I can fit in my suit for a wedding :)

Ok, I'm in. Not sure what a good target weight is though. I need to weight myself and figure it out.

And I prefer a Blended Scotch.
