"Dietbet" trip to MEXICO

Whew, my wheels have been turning since last night on a plan to lose the much needed weight I've struggled with for a long time. I think I've come up with a good plan and I couldn't wait to share it with YOU!!
This year Mark and I will celebrate our 10 YEAR anniversary. Anyone that has been married for any length of time knows what an accomplishment this is. So in honor of that we want to plan a trip to MEXICO in 10 months. That gives me 42 weeks which I figured a pound a week would be fair. Any weight loss would be great, but I want to look and feel good on that beach!
I want to be able to push myself and be motivated enough to accomplish my goal, but we all know it's hard to do anything on your own. So here's where you come in...
Some of you may have heard of Dietbet where you put in an amount of money and whoever loses a percentage of weight splits the pot at the end. I want to do something similar. As my friends and family I need your help, encouragement and support. (Please don't feel obligated to give money)
I'm going to set up an account on PayPal where you can send money if you would like. Here is the reason. Obviously we need to get down to Mexico, and I don't expect to raise all the money to do that, but any little bit helps. Also with the goal of losing 42lbs, I'm going to need some new clothes, maybe some sexy dresses and suit to wear on the beach! A definite motivation for me ;-) So here's the deal, if you want to send money, great! If not that's ok too I still need your support and encouragement! For those who want to help financially here are a few options.
1. You can send money to markkt86@yahoo.com via PayPal for the sole purpose of supporting my weight loss and trip and encourage me along the way. And I will match every $.
2. You can send money to markkt86@yahoo.com via PayPal where you bet on your own weight loss (set a goal and meet it in 10 months) and I will give your money back to you at the end!
3. You can send money to markkt86@yahoo.com via PayPal to motivate me on my weight loss journey where I will match every $ but if I don't make my goal I will give it back at the end!
If you are interested in any of the options above please let me know!
For those who want to do this weight loss journey with me I'd love to know what you are doing and help motivate you and see your results!
I will be posting what I will be doing each week so you can follow along and maybe try some stuff yourself :-) My financial goal is to raise $1500, so I will keep you updated about that. Again, any little bit helps. Feel free to share this is you know anyone interested in a cause. Thank you! This is going to be so much fun, please won't you join me on this journey!!?!
