I'm very nervous about these bets as I have not lost any more than 3 lbs in the past year, dieting! I figured I needed a little incentive. I'm committing myself to lose 4% of my weight in the next 4 weeks, and 10% in the next 6 months. Of course, I'm hoping to lose a lot more than 10% in the next 6 months. Ultimately, I'm looking to lose 22-25% of my weight, which is crazy! Yup, let's take this one step at a time... I can't wait to lose some weight and go shopping with my DietBet earnings ;)
