I got an e-mail about a neat website that allows you to set out a contract for yourself to meet various goals like losing weight, maintaining weight, quitting smoking, exercising, etc. It even allows you to create your own if you want. The idea is that you set stakes for your goals by donating to charity or other options when you fail to meet your goal. You can also opt to do it with no stakes involved but that means only you are responsible. When you sign up you select someone to be your referree and then you report back once a week to indicate the progress you have made. I figured it was worth a try - 12 pounds and 9 weeks until the Country Music Half Marathon - must do something, right?????
