We failed!!!!!

Okay - so John and I are SO LAME! We have our weights for the week of December 13th - but no weights for the 20th. We honestly just lost track of time with everything - illnesses, holiday revelry, overall lethargy - you name it! So - our plan to be fair to Cindy is to use the weight for the 13th to calculate what is owed (I actually went down 2 lbs - go figure) - but we will weigh in tomorrow and pay whatever is owed twice to make up for the missed week and send Cindy a check. It is the fair way to deal with our lack of follow-through.

Here's our week 8 summary:

John - Gained 1.2 lbs, 15.6 lbs lost for the competition, 0.56% weight gained this week, 6.72% weight lost for competition. Money owed: $42.00.

Kris - Lost 2.0 lbs this week, 5.2 lbs lost for competition, lost 1.11% body weight this week, lost 2.83% body weight so far in competition. Money owed: $34.00

Cindy - you will get a check for $76.00 plus whatever we owe for this week x 2 = go shopping! Thanks for keeping us honest Cindy!

On the workout end of things - we have consistently had at least 2 - never 4 workouts for the last 3 weeks - and Kim and John have been working out pretty consistently at 4 or more - so we are gonna calculate and send off a check to them as well.

We did 2 and 2 for the week of the 13th - so we owed $20.00, 3 and 2 for the week of the 20th, so we owe $15.00 and we did 3 each so far this week and I am pretty sure that will be it for us this week - so we will owe $10.00. So - I think we are sending a check to Kim and John for $55.00 + $45.00 = $100.00!!!! They earned it - they did ALOT of workouts. It was actually pretty close for awhile - so I think this bet actually really workout for us - kept us motivated! Thanks Kim and John!

Now - we are done for awhile. I think we have spent at least $500 or so trying to get skinny and it is appparently not working for us! :) It is really fun to hear how everyone is doing and the accountability is great - but we need to change it up I think. We will post every once in awhile for fun - but this is probably it for awhile.

Hope everyone has a happy - healthy 2010!
