Here I go, again......

Posted on December 30, 2015

This is the beginning of my 2nd transformer with Dietbet. In 2015, I lost 40 pounds through a lot of hard work, sweat and yes tears. That transformer ended the weekend of Thanksgiving and what have I been doing since then? EATING. Eating, and sitting on my rear. So.... I've put on TEN pounds. I cannot tell you how disappointed I am in myself. I have two options: give up, or get back in the game and finish what I started. I have come too far to let myself slide back into old habits- and, I don't like losing money!

How do you like doing Transformers compared to Kickstarters? I'm just worried that the timing of a monthly weigh in won't work for some of the special events that I would want to indulge at. For kickstarters I can sort of time it so that they'd end before or way after a special event. But the 4% is getting harder to reach as I get smaller.

I haven't done a Kickstarter, so I'm not sure I can compare it. I understand your worry about the monthly weigh ins- my first Transformer ended the Saturday after Thanksgiving! My advice to you is, always plan ahead and try to exceed your minimum weight loss goals for each month. That way you will have a "cushion" if you do have a night out or indulge on a special occasion. Good luck!!

I hear you...I have had to do back to back Transformers to keep going otherwise I am afraid to backslide. I just joined what will be my 3rd Transformer and that should get me to my goal weight. While that is exciting, I do worry about maintaining once I get there. It is much easier for me to be disciplined when I have deadlines and money on the line! Good luck, your ten pounds and more will soon be gone!!

Hi, Carrie! Don't be discouraged! You have let loose a bit, but you did it once, you can do it again! Just keep looking forward! Good luck!

Hi Carrie, you and I are in the same boat...I did the same thing and gained 10lbs. However, I don't feel bad because I know what needs to be done...So, yes, here we are and we will be victorious:):)
