DairyKing's Journal, 22 January 2013

OK, this may be a big mistake. One of the other managers thought it would be a good idea to start this 'Fat Club Competition." I am the latest contestant to be recruited. We set our own goals. It's on the honor system. We weigh at home. And it cost each of us $20 dollars each Friday that we don't reach our goal. After a year or so, if we decide to fold this thing, we'll divvy up the proceeds. So, if you always made your goal, you could potentially make some money. But the potential to lose money is much greater. He's already drafted up pretty elaborate spreadsheets to track the losses (or gains), complete with charts. Losing money can be a pretty good incentive for losing weight. I'm not embarking on some 'pie in the sky' adventure here. My goal are 1.5 lbs. per week until I reach 220 lbs., after which it drops to 1.0 lbs. per week until I reach 200 lbs., and then 0.5 pounds per week until I reach my goal of 190 lbs. I can renegotiate if I lose too much money, but then that becomes a pride thing. Sounds like fun, and it will help keep me on track for Buffy's challenge also.
