Help me CHEAT!

[megalicious]

H and I have been having a competition who can lose the most weight. We have 1 week left (5 total) and I've lost about 11.5 pounds so far by eating really well and exercising like crazy. But, we're pretty much tied! So, with one week left, I'm looking for anything I can do to get the winning edge. We've both done well and been healthy about losing weight, but with one week left, I'm looking for even the "fake" weight loss that will let me win next Sunday night! Any suggestions?

ETA: I know colon cleanses are unnecessary, but would something like that help? Any tricks/tips on reducing water weight (other than just not drinking any)?

Run 10 miles in the heat- that is sure to knock a couple pounds off.

Sauna? Cut out salt? Enema? Jk, don't do that last one...

Put a few rocks in his pockets before he weighs in?

Don't shower, it can add like 2 pounds .
Take a hot bath.
Also, why weigh in at night? Liquid and food adds pounds .

Avoid salty foods and fibrous foods. Drink lots of water.

That was the deal. We did our start weigh-in at 7:00 on Sunday night, so for comparison, we're doing our final weigh-in at 7:00 on Sunday night. It's going to be a terrible day since we'll both be trying to starve ourselves!

Just change the weigh in time. Why would you spend a Saturday suffering just so you can gorge yourself later.

I can't even tell you what I used to do as a gymnast when I was forced to weigh in because it is too dangerous.

But cut out salt, cut out carbs, drink a ton of water all week leading up to the weigh in, and sit in the sauna that day would be my 'quick fixes'.

This. Change it to Sun AM, no reason to spend the whole day miserable.
