  • I have really been working on increasing my movement the past couole of months. I used to average anout 500 steps a day and I weighed over 380 lbs when I started my journey. I have just recently started walking though to help. This was my walk this morning at work and I plan on repeating it after lunch as well. I also have signed up for my first ever 5k this Saturday. I will probably walk it but really felt like I needed to start somewhere.

  • Another walk in the books for SWEATember. My pace is getting better and better. 😊 I just know one day soon I will be running.

  • So excited to get back on this challenge to myself. I have a goal to enter the 260s by my birthday in November, so making sure to stay committed and get it done πŸ’ͺ?

Once again, confused beyond belief. I really dislike this interface. I weighed in for one challenge, doesn’t apply to this one, do a separate weighin (exceeding goals), and they say I have to weighin again. Now I can twiddle my thumbs waiting for customer service to get back to me durring a work crunch.

This is the first time my verified weigh in did not automatically apply to each challenge and I also had to weigh in separately for both.

It all worked out, but was a stressed. TY

Let's all make the best of round 3... the last round that doesn't involve holidays centered around eating! 😬

Ha! The holidays have me a little nervous. This will be the first time I have done a dietbet during all the food centered holidays at the end of the year.

  • 10lbs lighter from my last 5k in July. I was able to run this time a 5k under 32minutes which it was my goal. ☺😊

Strong work! I have my first 5k in a year in two weeks! (With my marathon runner husband)

Holly W.

So exciting. I just signed up for my first 5k and it is this weekend. I will probably walk most of it but I have to start somewhere. I can't wait until I can run the whole thing.

So annoyed. I was less than a pound from my goal a week ago. Went back to school this week. I didn't go to the gym, but my calories were still in deficit, and I gained 2ish pounds...ugh

Big changes in routine can throw a wrench in things, for sure, but you were on the right track before, and now that you're past that first week of adjustment, you will be again.

The big pot is at the end, so you can still come out ahead!

Holly W.

Hate when stuff that that happens. Weight can go fluctuate so much any time there are changes like that. Hang in there! You got this!

  • Silly photo for a laugh=) my furbaby wearing her goggles for laser therapy.

    Hello dietbet friends! I took 2 months off from dietbets, tracking, and walking. My dog had knee surgery last month, and wow, it was a stressful time! I know, I know....that is not an excuse to not eat healthy or not exercise. Im gonna be honest, though: my pets surgery, sick for 3 weeks with a virus, eczema flaring so bad, work stress, family stress, and my own mental health....it was ROUGH!! I have gained at least 10 lbs in 2 months, and boy, i feel it!!!! I am so uncomfortable! It is time to get back to it!

    Here's to a new dietbet and new beginning. No more excuses!
