My Experience.
My first DietBet4 game was created by Jillian's Rippedin30 Challenge. I bet $30.00, lost seven pounds and won $53.00. This particular game drew over 8,700 players because it had a celebrity host, the best-selling author, television personality and one of the leading health, fitness and wellness experts, Jillian Michaels.
Since I recovered my $30.00 bet and even made another $23.00 in my first game, I was motivated to join a second game which was the Blogilates ah-MAY-zing Dietbet. This was another celebrity hosted game, created by Cassey Ho, a certified fitness instructor, creator of POP Pilates and blogger. This game also had a $30.00 bet and over 3,200 players. This time, I lost another 6 pounds and won $49.00 - i.e., recovered the $30.00 and "made" $19.00.
I felt like I was on a roll now so at the conclusion of my second game, I immediately joined a third game, FFTFC's (Fat to Fit Chick) Summer Diet Bet. This game was hosted by Tanee, a blogger, a work-at-home mom of three children who lost 200 pounds. It was a $25.00 bet with over 1,000 players. I did not do so well in this game, in fact I was a "runner-up" meaning I did not lose the required amount and lost my $25.00 bet.
What happened, why didn't I win my third game? First of all, I joined the game late. It had already been in progress for about 10 days. Secondly, I went on vacation during the time that remained in the game. Unfortunately, the remote area where I vacationed hardly had any healthy eateries - the choices were limited to fast food and a few family-style diners. Thirdly, I only had less than five pounds to lose ... but these were the last, the most stubborn and most difficult. It would have required a big commitment to disciplined eating and exercising for the entire 28 days of the game to get those last pounds off.
Where am I with my weight now exactly one month later? Unfortunately, I've already gained bank about seven of the total 13 pounds I lost. Fortunately, I still remain about six pounds lighter and $17.00 richer than before my DietBet adventure.
Will I play again? You BET (yes, pun intended!) ... BUT only if I enter the game at the beginning and don't plan on going off to vacation during that time!
