I’m not even close to my goal, but I’m proud that I haven’t gained weight and I will not let negativity take over. I will not quit. I will keep trying until the last day!!

I started dietbet in November. I was surprised at how 'slowly' I was losing weight. Previously, I would have quit and likely gained more weight because I felt the process was too slow. But for some reason I stayed. I now appreciate the NSVs like being able to button a shirt I wore about 3 years ago, but could no longer get over my arms it was so tight. The fact my knees don't rip when I walk up stairs. The ability to walk longer and farther than I used to. The fact I actually am happy with my food choices instead of mindless eating. I started discouraged and 251 pounds. Now I'm down to 195--slow, never steady, often losing a few pounds over and over again, and quite a few frustrating weigh ins.

Please stick with it! You are no longer where you were and you will get where you want to be. Keep putting one foot in front of the other and find ways to enjoy the trip. Power on!!!

Wish me luck y’all! I’ve got a loong way to go in the next 5 days! Any tips on binge eating or afternoon snacks going out of control?

If I eat enough healthy carbs in the morning, I don’t binge. Binging is your body’s way of asking for it’s need for carbs!

I’m so so disappointed with this experience. If I had to give our host a score for being motivational and supportive, the score would be a 1 out of 10.

I made my goal despite the lack of support.

Losing weight is a challenge. And the idea IS that a person hosting a bet will be here to support others with their knowledge and experience. Our host has lost weight, knows the difficulty and importance of supporting others through this challenge.

Why even open a DietBet group if you’re not here to support others on a journey.

I’m really disappointed and I wish I could give you a score so no one else joins your group.
I already spoke with DietBet this and they are working on allowing participants to score group hosts.

At this point I want the host to know that you’re not at all deserving of the money you have made off of us.

Maybe it’s my fault for having expectations of a host to do something in supporting our process.

Aw, are you hangry Nancy? Just because we won doesn’t mean we can’t be disappointed. If she wants to continue to get paid by people in the game to host bets then we have the right to expect more than “here, pay me for doing nothing.”

Abigail S.

Dear Nancy,
It sounds like you either are friends with the host or are super angry in life.

I made my bet!!! And I’m proud of myself and I worked hard and I’m emotionally and mentally healthy. I do not need her to hold my hand. But if she is making 5% of the money, yes, I do expect her to show up everyday and support the group.
Yes, I do. Losing weight is a challenge. If it wasn’t YOU and I would not be here. We would not be putting money to help us be successful.
I think that because it’s a challenge, someone who’s not willing to put in the time should never ever open a group.
Anyone here needs support, that’s why we’re here. No one is getting rich off of this app. No one is going to make money here, really, so we’re here because we want to be part of a community. And the hosts responsibility is to build and support it.
And no, I’m not insulted by you, nor did you piss me off.
What does upset me is that shes making all this money and doesn’t have the decency to apologize or take responsibility.

Is anyone else having issues with the weigh-in accepting your full body photo? Mine wont even submit, just the ever ending circle... almost identical photo (different clothes) that I've used ever week! Not u understanding the issue! I've met all the parameters for the photo submission!

I’m not sure if you saw my other comment and the agreement of so many in the group, but your hosting has been a huge disappointment for so many of us.
If I could give you a score it would be a 0 out of 10. Unless you’re going to change your habits and start to support your group, please don’t open another DietBet as a host. You know how difficult it is to lose weight. And by never being present and supporting us who join the group, it’s a huge disservice. So no thank you.
