        Calendar dateCal = Calendar.getInstance();
        dateCal.setTime(startDate);
        for (int i = 0; i < numDays-1; i++) {
            dateCal.add(dateCal.DATE, 1);
            if(dateCal.get(Calendar.DAY_OF_WEEK) == Calendar.SATURDAY 
                    || dateCal.get(Calendar.DAY_OF_WEEK) == Calendar.SUNDAY  ){
