Weighin In For Week Eight

Ttl_468x60

So, I think I just got lazy this week.  That and I didn’t have my wife helping me out cause she was in Frisco.  So instead of a video, I just have a picture of the scale after I stood on it.  SO…here’s the update:

current pledges = $25.01 per pound

weigh in:      173.2 lbs
week1:        168.2 lbs    total loss:  5lbs         =    $125.05
week2:        166.6 lbs    total loss:  6.6 lbs     =    $165.07
week3:        163.6 lbs    total loss:  9.6 lbs     =    $240.10
week4:        165.8 lbs    total loss:  7.4 lbs     =    $185.07
week5:        164.4 lbs    total loss:  8.8 lbs     =    $220.09
week6:         ummm…
week7:        163.2 lbs    total loss:  10 lbs      =    $250.10

And this week…

week8:        161.2 lbs.       total loss:    12 lbs     =   $300.12

Woohoo!  I was shocked that I managed to lose 2 whole pounds being on vacation, eating on a road trip, et., but it’s true.  So my goal for next week is to try and get under 160.  Ultimately, I’ll be happy when i get down to 150, but 1 step at a time.  12 pounds since starting this South Beach deal aint too bad.  And back in October when I weighed in for the blogger challenge, I weighed in at 179.5.  So if I can get under 160 this week that will be about 20 lbs.

Remember, those dollar figures are the support some of us are raising to lose weight, and as much as I’d love all that cash for a video iPod or a scuba certification class, it’s going to a much nobler cause.  It is all going to help kids in Uganda, Africa through Invisible Children.  So, as usual, it’s not too late to help raise some money for a much need and worthy cause, so here’s the link…

              make a pledge – make a difference

See y’all next week, hopefully on the other side of 160.  If I can do that, we gonna par-tay!
