  • Happy 4th to those who are celebrating!

    What’s your go-to dish when you need to bring something to an event? I feel like you can never go wrong with fruit salad in the summertime!

    Enjoy the weekend!

I've been making faux-tato salad for several years now - potato salad recipe with cauliflower in lieu of potatoes. My non-low carb family also love it!

These all sound delicious! I hope you all had an amazing weekend!

Many years ago I won two of them. I think that was back before so many people knew about DietBet.

I won once!

  • What are we all doing this weekend?? I had a lot of family events in the last 3 weeks that drained me (all the stress of balancing work with 10,000 family requests and schedule interruptions!). So I’ve avoided making plans, but I hope to figure out something fun and active. Any ideas?

Fireworks are rare where I live (California, where fire danger often makes them illegal), so I would have to plan to find one and fight crowds for it, at a place like Lake Tahoe. I also have some National Parks in driving distance, they have free admission for the celebration of the 250th, but also serious crowds that leave nowhere to park your car to take any of those epic hikes and all. I just don’t have any good ideas.

Getting together with my family for a cookout. I work 7 days a week and I took today off. More excited about that than anything.

I have another bet wrapping this weekend, and decided to join this one to overlap and help keep the good work going.. rebuilding good habits over here. I can tell the exercise is becoming habitual, but some of the other pieces are more difficult…

like SLEEP. I love the quiet time in the late night when no one needs me, but it leaves me with only 5 hours or so to sleep 👎

Sleep is such a difficult one. I work 12s and just got off a long stretch. I slept 10 hours last night! Even my watch was telling me I had an abnormal nights sleep ? much needed. Keep on keepin on:v:

  • It’s Workout Wednesday!

    Movement is an important part of weight loss. Walking is a great place to start!

    Getting more steps in can help:

    - Burn extra calories
    - Improve energy and mood
    - Support heart health
    - Reduce stress
    - Build consistency without intense workouts

    You don’t need perfect workouts to make progress. Sometimes it starts with simply moving more than you did yesterday 💪

    - Do you have a daily step goal?
    - How are you getting your steps in today?

    Members, don't forget to submit your Progress weigh-in for extra accountability and to be entered into the weekly prize drawing!

I had a step goal of 11,000 steps a day. Kept the streak going for about two years. Then I got sick last December and had to break the streak. With the way my life is now my goal is 5000 three days a week and 11000 the other four.

I’m currently heavier than I’ve been since pregnancy 15 years ago. I went through a huge transformation between 2016-2019 and was in the best shape of my life. I don’t expect myself to go back to that level because my life looks different now but I’m very ready to get back down to a healthy weight!

I hear you. My transformation was a couple years ago but since December I have let myself go. Time to get back on track.

This is honestly the best mindset, Abbey. "Healthy" looks different at different points in our lives. I'm so glad you're here!

Curious … how long does it normally take to approve the final weigh in? I made my goal but not by a lot. I feel like if I start drinking coffee and have breakfast they might find some reason for me to have to weigh in again (I did follow the rules). That liquid and food might be enough to put me over.

  • Today not only did I weigh in at my lowest adult weight ever, but probably the lowest weight I’ve been since I started middle school 33 years ago! I have worked very hard for this. Lots of DietBets that helped me stay focused on small monthly goals versus the very daunting overall goal. I set the habit of exercising every single day 631 days ago and that is so ingrained in me now that I refuse to break that streak! And then I also tracked what I eat in the Weight Watchers app. Doing all of those things has helped me lose over 70 pounds and get in the best shape of my life! It is the best feeling to not only lose the weight but know that you can accomplish anything you set your mind to do! I started in September of 2024 and had lost most of the weight within 8 months. And since then it’s been maintenance and losing the rest. Then this year instead of a resolution I set a goal to train to run a half marathon, which I accomplished at the end of March! As a childcare director, I want all of my kids to know they can accomplish anything and that is the example I am setting for them! You can see the change in my confidence level from pic 1 to pic 2. It’s astounding to me!?
