No prob Paul and thanks for stopping by!

I’m glad I found this as well. I have been teetering back and forth on my exercises and just needed some extra motivation to get me to stick with it. I am happy to say that I used our treadmill at home for almost an hour. Just a powerwalk but its better than sitting on my butt and wishing I was thinner.

I think the extra fear motivation will do me good on top of the cash. We’ll see in a year I guess

Thanks for making me aware of this, I had already kicked off a biggest loser contest at work, this will go along nicely. Although me at 205lbs being 6'4" sounds pretty dang skinny, I was at 207 in 2005, it would be nice to be back there again. I'm going to hold off on giving them $200 of my money but will definitely take them up on the offer to give me money. .-= Paul @ FiscalGeek´s last blog ..Layaway: a Formal Delayed Gratification Program? =-.
