OPW -- Sep 4 -- Up for a challenge? Apparently over 50% of the developed world could do with losing 20lbs. I need to lose 20lbs to get from 200lbs to 180lbs. Alexandra will have to do without her natural cushion, sleeping on my belly. Time to lose the pook. I've set up a Weightloss challenge at WeightLossWars.com. Won't you join me in this public humiliation? The competition is based on % weight loss. You'll need to commit $50 towards charity, plus a $10 fee to the site. The competition runs through the evening before iDate Miami, January 21st, 2009. The winner can take the pot and donate it to their favorite charity. Drop me a line at [email protected] or call me at 212-444-1636 and I'll invite you into the competition via email. I'll report on progress on a monthly basis. - Mark Brooks
