I'd think you would want to avoid fries,

You can order "Cuties" which are those seedless tangerine type deals

Fruit and yogurt parfait

Salads

Probably impossible though

its strategy (rough estimates around my area)

small fries = 1.39
large fries = 1.89

So you gotta eat 2-2.5 small fries = 1 large fries
so it costs almost a dollar more

4 pc nugget = 1.99 (50cents/per)
6 pc nugget = 3.69 (62cents/per)
20 pc nugget = 5.00 (25cents/per)

buying the 6pc is straight up value

add a seeded bun is like another $1 to any burger

you can, but I would never.

Sad commentary on modern society that I can actually take pride in the fact that there is no way I would be able to win that bet.

I guess part of the strategy (unless not allowed) would involve going to a McDonald's in Hawaii or Japan or somewhere else guaranteed to be obscenely expensive. The Tokyo Mickey D's has to have some novelty kobe beef and truffles Big Mac for 150 dollars or something.

I would assume the $$$ being potentially wagered is enough to make that a viable option.

That isn't allowed. It says in the stipulations that high priced McD's aren't allowed

Got to hit the max on salads as well. They are expensive, around 4.79 a piece. Plus it well make you poop more and move through you faster. That is about 60 salads (300 total max) which sounds insane. But it'll start about 6 hours in. So that would help, as would the apple slices..

I'm staring to doubt my bravado now the more I'm looking at these numbers..

That is $28 per hour. I would order salad and grilled chicken breast.

ETA:

At $5.00 per, you would need to eat 6 per hour to make it. No dressing. No extra protein.

there is another insane prop bet that's like $2500 to $150k with 2 brothers who are like 150 lbs apart being within a lb within a year



Thats FAR more doable.

At least getting within 5-10 lbs should be easily doable (albeit unhealthy). Getting to within 1 lb at weigh would require coordinating morning dumps.

ETA:

Can they take roids and is bulimia allowed?

oh if jaime staples (The one who is 300+) commits he can easily lose 100 lbs in a year

the question is how fat does the 134 lb one want to get...he can easily put on 55 lbs in a year by eating like shite. no way he can bulk that much, though...he's gonna have to go full blown Mac

I could gain 50 lbs easily in a year if I ate chipotle and pizza every night and drank a 6 pack of beer every night.

shite, I lost 13 lbs during lent by not drinking beer, eating sweets, and by running a few times a week
