And who takes the early lead?...

The first quarter results are in!

Our contestants have had 3.5 months to feast, pump iron or just eat like gluttons to boost their weight. Here are the results

Johnny: 168.4 lbs.
Scotty: 191.2 lbs.
Aaron: 135.0 lbs.

--------------------

Johnny went from 163.0 to 168.4. That's 5.4 lbs. gained and a 3.3% increase.
Scotty went from 187.o to 191.2. That's 4.2 lbs. gained and a 2.2% increase.
Aaron went from 136 to 135. That's 1.0 lbs. lost and a 0.73% decrease!

Before we jump to any hasty conclusions - let us not forget the 1st quarter weigh-in from 2008 where, eventual Champion, Aaron lost over 10 lbs. in the first 3 months.

Time will only tell if competitors Johnny and Scotty can keep up the pace - or if veteran Aaron will win the day with his sheer sticktuidivness (I promise that is a word). He has done it before - can he do it again?

Tune in next time...

It's On - Again!

Weight Gain Wars 2010

Weight Gain Wars is on for a second year.

It seems Johnny has been stewing over his crushing defeat in 2008 and after a year break he wants to compete once again.

Same rules as 2008. Who ever gains the most weight (percentage gain) by the end of the year wins. Loser will buy the winner dinner at a location of his choice.

To make things a bit more interesting - Scotty will also be competing this year. We'll see if he holds strong.

Here is the opening weigh-in. Taken on New Years Eve 2009.

Johnny = 163 lbs.
Scotty = 187 lbs.
Aaron = 136 lbs.
