Hopefully A New Beginning!

Posted on August 10, 2014

I am SO excited to be a part of this group. But I am not going to lie, I am also super scared. I have tried so many things with losing weight. I have even tried to find people that will help me and support me. However, every single way that I have tried, it has failed. So here I am again, trying something new. Hopefully I can find a community of members that can help me with support. I tend to be confident with something I set my mind to, and then after a while, I forget that I am doing it because everyone around me in my life is doing something different, or they try and make the decisions for me. It is hard to do something different than everyone else. I want to make a new beginning.

All though high school I was overweight and unconfident, I would tell myself that I was going to lose the weight every year. And every year I have tried to find a program or a diet plan that would change what I was doing wrong. So here I am, a girl named Jenni, wanting to make a new beginning and do what I always told myself was possible. And-I-am-TERRIFIED. But, it’s okay. I’m not about to give up on something great, just because it might also be hard.

Best tip I have is to log on often and post a lot! This community is amazing, and the more active I am online, the more my brain commits to doing the work I need to do. Can't wait to rock this bet with you!!

Your story is so amazing, and inspiring! Thank you so much for the support! It means a lot. (: I like DietBet for the same reason. It is so awesome that it is a WinWin, because either way, you try. I cant wait to start the challenge! It would be awesome if we could support and encourage each other. Thank you so much! and Good Luck to you as well!! We can, and we will! :)

I'm scared too so you are not alone! I actually was in a biggest loser type contest in my town and lost 60lbs. Being a single mom I wanted to win the money so bad to help with Christmas presents that year. I did not win tho :( I managed to keep the weight off for a couple of years then got lazy and gained it all back plus some m I've been extremely hard on myself about it. I finally decided to forgive myself and get back at it. I'm really scared too Tho. I like dietbet because as long as I meet the goal I win! I love that so much more than one winner. This will be my first dietbet but hopefully we can help each other out and encourage each other. Good luck! We can do this! !
