How is everbody doing. I hit a little plateau and my monthly is on the way. So I signed a Kickstarter again to get it going again. I gained like 2kg but the most will be water. So if I have a good week I think I should be able to loose 2kg.

What I wonder: Did anyone do another 6 months directly after one? For me it sounds hard to do the 3% again in the first 2 rounds. But on the other hand for me it would be below 3kg so, it should be possible.

I am so tired. I am trying to break through my plateau, doing some sort of exercise every day this month (I do have rest days, but I haven't had lazy couch days). Fasting has been the only way I have lost weight. Today I fasted and walked 5.5 miles and was dead afterwards.

Anybody else feel like they get sick more often in weight loss mode or is it just me? This will be the 3rd for 4th time I’ve been sick since January. Wondering if being in a calorie deficit lowers your immune system a bit. I’m sure having 3 kids doesn’t help either way lol. This sickness os definitely the worst as I haven’t been able to function today and slept most the morning/late afternoon.

In other news, I feel like I have a real chance of hitting my goal this month. I am close to half of the weight I need to lose to win round 5. So I am happy about that! Making some goood progress!

Re: my win for Round 3....Look, I don’t think I will “win” most popular comment with this statement….but what the hell. DietBet is a bit of a scam and the owners are making an enormous amount of money from us. Imagine almost a million dollars claiming interest in a pot for 6 months…. and then DietBet owners take an enormous percentage for themselves at the end…..
But… the incentive for me is betting on myself to not lose my money which (like most if you), I work so damn hard for). This external control mechanism has helped me keep my focus so for that I am grateful. But… any delusional fantasies I had about making decent money from this over-marketed process has been crushed. Mostly because all of us are doing so well . A strange reality but rather fascinating. I don’t want any of us to fail so I guess that is the cost of not making any profit. At the end of the day, we do win more by losing our weight and becoming healthy. I’m guessing by the time we considered this weird diet-betting process, most of us have tried most anything else. At least that is true for me..so I am (in a qualified way) grateful. I do think the coaches are lovely and I like the way we receive inspiration. Dieting can be a lonely and frustrating "gig" and somehow Dietbet has helped me stay focused. I may be sounding a bit contradictory so my apologies. I have struggled with my weight for almost all of my adult life and I am finally 2 kg shy of my goal weight (which is a loss of about 75lbs or 34kg). Certainly, the incentive not to lose the bets I have made kept me a bit "OCD" for the last 20kg and I am pleased with the results. Just have to keep the weight off. As a final comment, I wonder about a dietbet game that supports "maintenance over say, 6 months to a year"? In other words, we win when we don't gain but this would only make sense for people who have lost the amount in the first instance. I would sign up for that. Your thoughts?

Breakfast is the most important meal of the day. Do you agree?

I am annoyed that I have only lost 5 ish pounds since the start of this challenge. I have not been consistent nor disciplined. I have decided to post every day on this platform and to stay committed and accountable.

My plan is, since I am currently not working a full time job, workout for 45 minutes twice a day; limit, not eliminate carbs (sticking to good carbs), stay away from sat fat, limit sugar; and limit alcohol to once a week only 12 oz. Calorie intake will be between 1,500 to 2,000. Drink a gallon of water everyday. I will post a photo of my food everyday and confirm that I have done the workouts. Let's see what happens this month.

Wish me luck! I really need this transformation.

I hit a million steps for the year today 😬 The most steps I’ve taken in an entire year was 1,7801,745 and I’m more than half of that in just 3 months. I have been playing other games with WayBetter to keep me going and have been crushing it since I started. I’m proud of myself

I'm a 15-pound sausage in a 10-pound casing today in my Friday work shirt. I don't think the shirt shrank either. The struggle is real. Getting back on track!
