Damn Fund! (Pardon my French!) as of Aug 30th.

LoR, BP,

I'm still sick. No workout today either. Its Wednesday. And it shows. So, another $2 in the fund from me. :( I suck. I felt better last night, so went to bed around 10:30, but just could not get up this morn. Tonight maybe bed at 9:00 will help?

Anyway, here's the final total (I think)
OPoCCtGP - $4
LoR - $2
BP - $1

OPoCCtGP's PuBaSWoP Plan - End of day 7, i.e. Week ONE

LoR - had I told you what my goal was when we began the PuBaSWoP? It was to lose 6 lbs by Sept 30th. And that weight was with my jeans on. :) That was 1 lb each week. Looks like I'm close to target for my first week. Though the amount of cake and frosting I had yesterday will show up in the scale tomorrow. :( But so far, lost 1 lb. Also lost $1 for 4/7 workout days and $1 for pigging on aforementioned cake. Yay! Can't enjoy the woods though. Miles to go before I sleep. :)
