Thanks! Unfortunately, or fortunately,lol, I will not be waiting that long to have a drink. Another 4.6lbs to lose, and I will allow myself to drink again. Going to keep the healthy food diet though and keep a close eye on my weight. Jesus, I would go up a couple of flights of stairs and would start sweating Crisco.

on the bright side, you must've smelled like pastry, which is way more pleasant than smelling like an old sweaty jockstrap.

but seriously though that's cool, you seem to have your own objectives and keeping focus on them. the keyword when you'll start drinking/cheating again is moderation.

its pretty simple, pat. the .5 gives the house the advantage since there can be no ties which cancels the bet.

how they arrive at the number is more complex but that .5 is known as the hook in betting lingo.

I thought the bets could've been "5 shots or more" or something but this makes sense, thanks.
