Good Morning,
I'm getting a late start this morning. We went to the Sea Food Festival last night. We actually were volunteers for the Military selling glow toys. I think I sold the most! (i'm alittle competitive tee hee hee)
Anyway, I'm dragging today.
Has anyone ever heard of the Piggy Bank Challenge?
This is where we each have a piggy bank. We add .25 cents for every 8 oz of water we drink, .50 cents for every mile walked, $1.00 for each time you post, Inches lost, Weight lost and so on and so on. At the end of the week the person with the most money in there bank wins Queen for the week.
We all would become her court
and would acknowledge her as our Queen and do homage to her.
(ha ha ha) This was a fun game but there were draw backs.
Unless EVERYONE has an opportunity to win people will drop out.
There were positive and negative things about this game.
Positve was people people in the beginning got motivated.
Women love challenges!!
Plus everyone likes to be a Queen.
Negative was we had people taking Diet pills
and other stimulates plus some who were used to walking and running 5 miles a day.
These people were competing against those who were not able to take ANY type of stimulates to help with weight loss
and some women were over 300 pounds and trying to compete with others in exercise was impossible.
So, eventually, people started dropping out when they felt they didn't have a chance at winning Queen.
The Queen, who was very deserving of the position, began to feel quilty of winning all the time and started holding back so others could win.
That didn't help because now the highly motivated didn't want to feel that someone let them win.
Before long everyone quit.
The truth is The GAME WAS GREAT!! It was fun and motivating. But we would have to tweek it so it works for everyone.
What are your thoughts? Is it worth revapping?

I weighed myself,fully clothed, at 199.4 about 12:00 pm. Then I had lunch.
After lunch I did 2 sets of 40 situps. Then got up and cleaned the kitchen. Went and weighed myself about 1:00 pm and I weighed 199.0
Everyone!
any day now your going to get on the scale and not believe your eyes when you see all the weight you lost at once
made you lose it!!! 
You knoe that it's going to keep coming off because you work hard. 
He said it had 800 errors on it. I don't know what that means but he fixed it. Unfortunately, its still messed up. 
It took me an hour to get on line today! 
And now my mouse moves all over the place by itself. 
I cheat to much. 
Not bad but enough!
Happy Friday Everyone
but I cna't give up so I continue to read the success that you all have. A challenge 
tell me how those works I'd like to try them out all try anything!
. I am not going to give up. My DH says he sees my getting smaller right before his eyes. I can see it in my clothes but I am "scalewatcher" and I want to see the numbers on the scale drop. 
. Hope that your need plan work for you this week.
your body sort of like the Wendie Plan.
But what seems to be helping me the most is my son bought me a Ab lounger. Man Its great. It makes it easier on my back but I can feel the muscles tighting. 
I had a late lunch which was grilled shrimp with rice and steamed veggies. Diet Drink.
It's always fun to have someone working next to you as hard as you and knowing that there is an incentive at the end. I know the weight lose is the incentive
