Hi Everyone!
You are almost there! I know there have been ups, and downs, good days bad days! Big wins, small wins, but the way you should look at this is- it's all growth- and when you grow your learn. I have learned so much from you, and hopefully you have learned so much about yourselves from this past bet. Use those insights to propel you forward toward an on going healthy and sustainable lifestyle

What going to be your biggest focus for the next 24hrs and for the remainder of December?

Hope to see you on the next dietbet!! Click here to sign up

Hey y’all i still have 2 pounds to lose , don’t think I’m gonna make it:cry: but I couldn’t have lost the weight that I have lost without these games! Was wondering do I still have to weigh in even if I have not won the bet this time ? Thanks

I don’t think I am going to win this game but I am losing. So, knowing that being in a Dietbet game is motivating me, I went ahead and joined the one that starts Jan. 6th. Merry Christmas everyone and Happy New Year. :christmas_tree::dart:

OMG I submitted my weigh-in on the 17th which is the day when it ended and I thought that was it - I came in under my goal by .1 lbs (:tada:) and was so excited and now it says I didnt reach my goal? :flushed: I’m a single mom of 3 and checked it off my list as done when I received my email that my weight in submission was approved and the reason I entered was to make sure I lost the weight cuz I cant afford to lose the $$ (i don’t receive any help from the ex :confused:) and I love all you so and youre so inspirational and adorable but I digress….help! Lol. I didn’t verify the app or the email cuz I check other work emails regularly and didnt think I had to double check anything on my submission since it was approved and today when I went to find the email that my $$ was getting reimbursed to me instead it said I didn’t reach my goal and my heart sank :sob::cry::tired_face::weary:. help plz :pray::hearts:

I’ve never been a tea drinker, but this last week I have been getting myself to drink it! I think it’s helping a bit with minimizing snacking! I started my day with it again today and I will to keep getting in one cup a day!

Stay on Track Tip: Small Steps, Big Wins

Hey! As the holidays approach, remember: small wins add up to big results. 🎯

Today, focus on just ONE healthy choice:
• Swapping out a sugary drink for water
• Adding an extra serving of veggies to your meal
• Taking a 10-minute walk to clear your mind

Small steps today pave the way for long-term success. What’s your small step going to be? Share below! 💖

Hi, I'm Lindsay, from Chicago. I was motivated to join the group because I've been in a pretty good mindset lately and wanted to give myself some extra accountability to keep it up during the holidays. My non-scale goal is to get more sleep - I'm a single mom with almost full custody of 3 school age kids and a full time job, so I get so little time to myself that it's hard to make myself go to bed during that brief period of time when the kids are all asleep and I have a little bit of time to myself.

Hi! I'm from Long Island NY. I am doing this diet bet because I've put on some weight that needs to go! And a NSV I'm working on is feeling better in my clothes.
