So, this is the question everyone wants to know and I am going to find out; How fast can you lose 15 pounds? After being a total slacker with training for the last 7 months, Â I have finally decided it is time to get back into a consistent training schedule and kicking butt. Lately, I find myself on a consistent basis playing with my fat rolls and being totally disgusted with myself. I no longer enjoy looking at myself in the mirror and my kids love to put thier finger in my belly button and watch it disappear. This madness has got to stop.
You might think I am joking but I am being totally serious. Since the Spudman Triathlon on July 25th, 2008  I have not ran more than 4 times a month. This is pretty sad … and dangerous considering the fact I raced in a half ironman, a  marathon and 2 sprint triathlons during those seven months. Not to mention being totally embarrassed considering my finishing times in each.
I now weigh 185 pounds, which is not bad considering it is my normal weight, but it  is 17 pounds heavier than I was on July 25th,2008. I want to get back down to 170 pounds as soon as possible for training purposes and I am going to find out how long it takes to lose all those extra pounds I picked up from Taco Bell, KFC, McDonald’s & Burger King. If I can lose the weight quickly I might just write a blog post every so often telling everybody what I am doing to lose the blubber. To lose the weight I will be training consistently and watching my diet,  sometimes. I will not be using any Super Duper weight loss pills or magical elixir formulas.Â
So tell me what you guys think, how fast do you think I can lose the excess blubber hanging around my belly and butt?  Comment to this post and the person that comes the closest will win a FREE bakers dozen from Krispy Kreme Donuts! Seriously!

My vote is 12 weeks because we have our cruise soon, so you won’t be losing any weight on there!

I don’t think you should lose any weight! But if you must, I would say 10.5 weeks.

Hey Fatty have you lost any weight yet. I think with all the crying you’ve done in the past couple of days you should have at least cried out a pound or two. Let me know how you are doing so far chunk. And don’t get frustrated sir eat-a-lot you are probably still faster then me as long as they hang a twinkie in front of you when you are running or perhaps I will tie a double cheeseburger on my back.

Hey blob you are not keeping us very updated on your progress just tell how many cheeseburgers a day you are consuming and then I might have to change my guess. Don’t forget to inform me on your ding dong consumption as well and when I win that bakers dozen there better be 13 in there and not like 3 and your face covered in frosting.

Wait, you’re trying to do something healthy and rewarding the winner of the contest with Krispy Kremes? Where’s the logic in that?

I can’t believe people are saying good for you at keeping so healthy the whole reason we are having this competition is because you are lazy, fat, and unhealthy. People need to stop being nice to you for being gross.
