Kicking up the workouts

Today I decided to give my Jillian Michaels Body Revolution dvd's another try. I have 15 days until our vacation so it couldn't hurt to kickup my workouts (or rather start working out, 2 days a week doesn't really count). I would like to see at least 4 pounds by then. Wednesday's are my preferred day for my weekly weigh ins, today I weighed in at 204. Ouch I should have continued with the dietbet. I took my measurements also and will post the amounts lost or gained later. I know that some don't agree with taking the measurements yourself. I also think these can be a little off, however I left myself detailed notes with the area I put the tape measure like a mole, scar ect. For me that is good enough. I like these workouts except while doing them I swear JM's trying to kill me. Its all good though. I feel really good after working out. I just need to keep the motivation to actually DO the workout.

Dietbet

I came across this site called Dietbet. How it works is you pay whatever the fee is for the one you want to join and have to lose 4% of your weight in 28 days. Everyone who reaches that goal, shares the pot. If you reach yours the least you would go home with is the amount the bet was. The one that I'm doing is $25 and starts today. My 4% is 8 pounds. So if you win the least I would walk away with is that $25. It was just motivation enough to get me to kick myself into gear, my final weigh in was 198 :)
