A Bet is not really a Bet

While in LA, my "brother in love", Ben, and I decided to see who could lose the most weight in the month of August. Now, in a bet, there's gotta be something to win...so if Ben won, I would watch his children 5 times for up to 3 hours so he could spend quality time with his wife. If I win, I would get to keep is '03 mustang cobra for a week!

After the bet was made, I thought about it and Ben has a lot more lbs. to lose so I suggested we base it off of percent of body weight lost...sound fair, right?! Ben was completely against any changes...once you set the terms its done! I said OK, I understand that. Well, later the same day, he wanted to change the terms...but wait! The terms are set, no changes, right?! Not for him, if the terms don't change, the bet's off! WHAT!

Anyways, to make a long story a little shorter, the bet is currently off! Blah, blah!

However, this bet got me thinking...how much weight could I really lose in a month if I set my mind to it? Well, I'm gonna find out! Check in next Monday to see the results of week 1!

I'm joining you. Sorta. I forgot to step on the scale this morning, but I guess I'm doing it more for the change the body than watch the numbers... numbers depress me. You're always SO good. I'm hoping you'll not mind me joining and we can encourage each other! (Probably you'll be inspiring me and I'll be cheering you! ^_^) love you!!!
