DietBet – Who’s In?

I recently discovered this “dieting aid”.
I checked out the website & it looks like it
might actually help me in my diet. I can join
someone else’s challenge or I can make my own.

There are several games you can play, one is;
Basically you bet on yourself. You & a group of folks
all pay a fee ($25, $30, $50, $100 etc.) into a pot, you have
4 weeks to lose 4% of your body weight. All the winners share the
winnings pot.


Check it out here : https://www.dietbet.com/

What do you think?

Sounds like a good incentive for weight loss. You are only competing with yourself to hit the 4%. Hope it works for you.

Myself....I'm just a couple of sit ups away from tri-athalon champion status.
 
Whatever works!

As a weightlifter who has to shovel food in his mouth all day long to maintain weight, I always consider how badly I could kick everybody's ass in one of these contests if I chose to :lol:
 
Ok, so I joined 2 of these "Dietbet games".


First Week *** Unofficial *** Weigh In

My stats totals for my first week;

Bicycle Ride (open road) - 96.5 miles.
Jogging up & down stair steps – 2,438 stair steps.
Diet; Pretty much whatever I wanted, except for carbs.
(I also battled a cold/ flu all week).

The results….

Weigh in 2-18-2017 – 238.2 lbs.
Weigh in 2-25-2017 – 228.2 lbs.
My DietBet target weight - 228.7 lbs.

I have 4 weeks to hit my target weight (which I already beat & won the game!)

This DietBet thing is GREAT for motivation, encouragement & accountability.
it is simply one of many key tools to a successful diet.

you would have won a lot of money! :lol:

I just learned about DietBet about two weeks ago.
I don't normally go for fads or the like, but this seemed
like a good fit for me (& many others).

They do have DietBet games for those who maintain their
weigh as well, so there is still game for you if you like.

I still don't get how I went a bunch of money.... can I literally just put the weight back on and keep taking it back off it's really easy for me to fluctuate my weight wouldn't I just be a wringer to win a bunch of money all the time?

I spent some time reading just about everything on DietBet's website.
They have really good & fair "checks & balances".

They are up front about things. You can play several games at the same time,
in other words, win 3 times, only lose the weight once.

They have games for $25, $30, $35, $50, $100 & $150. I'm currently in a $30 and
a $100 games (which I have already won). These are both 4 week games. I'm now looking
at a 6 month game, pretty sure I'm going for that one starting in 3 days.

The winnings are normally 1 1/2 to 2 times your bet.

They also have games for folks simply maintaining their weight.

The two pots I'm in are now ( I split with the other winners) $11,490. and $26,200.

I still kinda don't get it... Do you lose your money if you don't lose the weight?

Sounds like I was dumb not to come up with this app.
 
Again I ask, who's in?

*** New DiteBet game just started today ***

This one is 6 months, lose 10% of your body weight.

I just joined this one because the other two I'm in are
going so good. I love the motivation, encouragement & accountability.

It truly is all about losing the weight.

But it doesn't hurt that the 3 games I'm in have
winnings of $26,800, $54,025 & $11,700.

I just lost 5% in the last 2 weeks. What do I win? :). Actually this seems like a motivating program. Whatever it takes!
