DietBet is a game where you've got 4 weeks to lose 4% of your starting weight. To begin, everyone puts money into the pot. After four weeks, whoever's hit their 4% goal is a winner and splits the pot. Join a game now or start your own.
Choose from open games starting soon.
Or start your own and challenge your friends.
Two days before your game begins, you'll be prompted to submit your
official starting weight.
Our standard weigh-in process involves you submitting two photos, one of you on a scale
in airport security attire;
another of the scale's readout with your weigh-in word.
HOW WE PREVENT CHEATING
We have a photo review process in which players submit proof of their initial and final weights to our team of Referees. We also have algorithms that detect unusual activity within a game or across games and use an auditing system where some players may be required to submit extra proof of their weight loss using: a Skype weigh-in with one of our Referees, a video weigh-in, or an in-person weigh-in at a location pre-approved by DietBet, such as a Walgreens or CVS clinic. If requested, you will have to submit further proof of your weight within 24 hours. Since weights fluctuate naturally, we allow up to 1% of your final weight as variance for your audited weigh-in only. This variance does not apply to the standard final weigh-in. Failure to comply will result in disqualification and forfeiture of your winnings and initial bet. You may also be banned from playing again and subject to other penalties.

Congratulations, your starting weight has been approved!
You've now got 28 days to lose 4%. Use DietBet to post photos,
comments, and get weight-loss tips. Make sure to invite friends to cheer
you on.
Update your weight as often as you like. Self-reported weigh-ins during the game are unofficial but can help hold you accountable.
DietBet on the go with your iPhone!
Nothing saps the spirit of your rivals faster than a photo of the salad your just
ate (just as the waiter is putting a slice of cake in front of them.)
After the final day, you will have 48 hours to weigh out. Even if you have not won, please enter your final weight. You will not be required to submit photos for verification unless you are a winner.
48 hours after your game ends, the results are made official and the pot (less DietBet's fee) is divided among the winners. Winners are notified by email of their payout, which is credited to their DietBet account. You can apply your winnings to your next DietBet or cash out now via PayPal and treat yourself to something special ... you earned it!
