Any interest in a Dietbet?

[cajunmom]

We've done several on here before and I think a number of people were successful. I was thinking of starting a bet in the next week or so if anyone is interested in joining.

I’ve never done one before but I would be interested. What kind of info gets posted? I know there is posting of photos, does the whole group get to see them? I would only be interested if I get to maintain my anonymity.

I would be in!

[booky]

I would as long as it’s okay to be Canadian.

You definitely can maintain your anonymity. You only post whatever information you choose to post, however much or little you want.

Also, your weigh in photos and numbers are always private. No one in the group sees any of that, ever.

I’m interested, but I’ve never done one before. Do you just have to rely on people’s honesty? How much money is involved?

You submit certain photos that are verified for your starting and ending weights. No one in the group will see them. I can choose how much everyone bets when I set it up...probably just $15 or $20.

I'd be interested. I've been having a hard time getting started, with some money on the table that might be just the motivation that I need

I'm in. I am doing my 1st dietbet now (January - June) but I think it'd be fun to do one that is a shorter time period to keep me motivated/interested.

[liverandonions]

Sure!

[ChillyMcFreeze]

I'd be interested in a low buy-in!

[lightbulbsun]

I would be interested.

[beefjerky]

I'm in. I need a kick in the ass to get moving again.

I have never done one but would be interested. 

[cajunmom]

I will set one up and share the info...when I have it ready, feel free to share it with anyone you think may be interested or on other boards.

[soccermama]

I may be interested as well!

[af1212]

Yes please!! My moms group usually does one but they’re doing something different this year b

I would suggest looking into healthywage instead. There are a lot of problems with Dietbet that I'm seeing recently from them not properly disclosing fees (they take 25% of all pots) to supporting a host that was accused of sexual harassment. It's hard to say exactly because social media, but I saw someone recently promoting HealthyWage as a better alternative.

[huskymom]

Yes, I’d be interested in a challenge whatever the best platform is. These have really helped me in the past!

[sweetchix]

I would be interested.

Any update?

[cajunmom]

Sorry guys, I've been super busy and haven't had time to set it up yet but I'll be able to get it taken care of this weekend for possibly a start date next Wednesday (I prefer mid week weigh ins). I'm going to research that other site that someone mentioned up thread. When I have it ready to go I will post it in a new thread.

Thanks!
