I’ve been eating Whole Foods, cut out alcohol, and walking over 12,000 steps a day the past 3 weeks, but have been at a stand still with the scale. I made the first 2 rounds but didn’t make it this round. I’m going to start eating a few hundred more calories each day and see if that doesn’t help. I’ve been around 1200/day and wonder if that isn’t enough.

Congratulations to everyone that made it!

I am so discouraged. Despite increasing water, eating healthier, and increasing my exercise and activity, I am not losing weight. I’m completely discouraged. If anyone else is where I am, know that you are not alone.

I just barely made it this check in, it’s definitely getting harder than that quick weight you lose in the beginning. New round, new reasons to check back in and be consistent! Good luck everyone!

I had a great month. Already hit my next two targets. A little over 2lbs left to get to the overall goal weight. Getting about 15 lbs from my lowest in about 20 years.

Thank you for the accountability!

Hey, I made it, everyone, and came in under goal a little bit, but I have to say I’m not proud of how I did it.

Confession: I only ate a banana between Friday and tonight. Drank a lot of tea, water, some kefir, even some hot cocoa, but no food.

NOT what I will do in the next rounds. Balanced, thoughtful eating is my goal through the end of this program.

For a regional leadership program, I had to go a day without food on Saturday to understand what food insecurity felt like, which was uncomfortable, but extending the experience and being hungry, crabby, and getting headaches for almost three whole days to catch up was not pleasant. Definitely not recommended. Lesson learned.

Hope all of you are doing well with your weigh-ins. Thinking of you and sending positive vibes!!

It is going to be close today. I did a couple leg days this week so I lost size and rebuilt some muscle. I was .4# off goal earlier today.

I’m not going to make this round either - still 2lbs away. I actually gained weight in round 1 so now that I am back to losing and forced, I should be able to pull of rounds 3-6!

2.5 lbs to go. Who knew... 😂

I made a bet even bigger than DietBet. I bought ski pants for an awesome blue ski suit. The pants are a little tight but with 8-12 lbs off they will be perfect -like the rest of my wardrobe that also now is very tight. 7 weeks till my ski trip. Wish me luck and I wish you all the best as well.

I didn’t make this round but I am not giving up. I did lose a little and it was a tough month for weight loss. I have a new plan and think I am finally motivated enough to stick with and get all these extra pounds off (again). I’m focusing on diet and will gradually add in exercise.

I hope everyone else got off with a better start and made your goal this month. I plan to be in the winner category next round!
