Interested in betting on yourself? I am.

I have been watching DietBet.com for a while now. It seemed so intriguing but I could NEVER get my head around it. It just didn’t not make sense to me. Well then, enter one of my favorite bloggers Cassey, from Blogalates.com and her New Years DietBet. She has tossed in some mind blowing prizes just to sweeten the deal, and well it worked for me! I am willing to bet 30 dollars I can lose 4% of my body weight in 4 weeks!!

I know a lot of people are using challenge groups, coworker competitions, friends and family, and other supports, and I jumped into a LOT of them this week, and I am pretty excited about this one because it is $$.

So here is the deal. Literally just go sign up here–
Pay 30 dollars.
Do your thing! I will be incorporating a modified T25, my favorite products, and other healthy lifestyle tips I know and should use all the time.

Diet Bet

Basics of DietBet…Yep THAT simple.

There are some rules to diet bet about weighing in, curbing cheaters, and how much weight you are allowed to lose. You are not allowed to lose more than 3x your goal. So up to 12% loss is allowed. I calculated a 10% loss for me and choked. HA! Not for me. BUT!

It doesn’t matter HOW much you lose. As long as you do not go over the 12% and you lose at least 4% of your body weight you win your bet back + a part of the pot ( of the people who did not make their bet, or fizzled out)

So for me. I just invested 30 dollars in myself to lose 10 pounds. If i make it I get my bet back and hopefully some more of that pot. I do not plan on failing because I hate to see a dollar leave me 😉

Have you used DietBet before? Any competitions with your friends, family, or coworkers?
