Weigh Day ~ Numero 3: Prelude

The bet is on again! This time we've suckered asked Hussy to join us. We will be running from January 15th to May 15th & the winner receives 100 smackeroonies! That's right, boys & girls. Wilma's gonna get her a big ol' pile of money to roll around in. If only we hadn't gotten rid of the 1 dollar bill... those Loonies get wedged in places I'd rather not name.

Yesterday was our first weigh in. I, in all my super-genius & OCD glory, was the only one to report.

As with Part 1 & Part 2, I will not actually tell you, the anonymous & judgemental public, what I weigh. However, I will have a starting point, hereafter referred to as "z" {I am so creative ~ sometimes I even amaze myself!} & z=y-1 {part 2}. Now, if y=x-1 {part 1}, what does z equal in relation to x?
Didn't think you'd be doing algebra today, didja?

z=x-2.

Huh.

I'm pretty impressed, actually. I've managed to lose 2 pounds in 1 year. OMG! Only 2 pounds in a whole year?!?!? Not impressed anymore. Must. Do. Better! In all fairness, I haven't really been doing much of anything to lose/keep the weight off, so I am a little impressed that I've managed to lose weight at all. My shameful addiction to Dairy Queen Cheeseburgers & A&W Onion Rings weren't helping the cause either, let me tell you.

So, that was a rather long-winded way of telling you that I'm starting at z. Yup. Why take the short cut when you can see the sights? That's why you lurve me.
