At the beginning of december I was in a dilemma about how to get through the holidays without gaining too much weight. Short of getting sick, I almost always gain a few in that one week window between Christmas and New Years. Nowadays it takes me months and way too much mental and physical energy to take it off again (menopause sucks...). Then I came up with what I consider an ingenious plan. I called my Business Coach up...his name is Alessio. He'd just had his fat and muscle mass measured and it turns out that he needed to lose about 12 lbs. The plan was this:- From December 2nd to January 7th we had to lose 1,5 kg each (about three lbs). I figured it was an easy enough weight that we didn't have to really "diet", but it would ensure that we were careful during the holidays.
- If I lost the weight and Alessio didn't, he owed me 100,00 euro (now the fabulous equivalent of 144 U.S. Dollars),
- If Alessio lost the weight and I didn't, I owed him 100,00 euro.
- If we both lost the weight, congrats and cheers with a glass of mineral water.
- If we both did NOT lose the weight we both had to donate a hundred euro to charity.
I lost, he gained, I won!
I'm planning on spending most of it on clothes. I did already donate a small portion to my favorite charity.
