I just joined! I had done the September challenge. I just posted there that I did not “win” by the deadline. However, I made my goal by the Friday after!!!! That challenge kept me accountable and it was worth the $35 to stay on track. I had been on a rollercoaster of weight loss for months and I finally got it down! Want to keep going!

Yesss!! Well done! I also didn't get my money back last game but still choosing to see it as a win in other ways. Let's keep the momentum going.

So, my typical weigh in day is Friday. I had not met goal by the contest, but I made it by Friday! It was worth the $35 because of the accountability. I don’t care that I didn’t win… I lost my weight! I’m going to join the Oct challenge and get more of this weight off!

✨ Good Morning! It’s Mindset Check-In Time! ✨

How are you feeling about your progress and your chances of crushing that weight loss goal for the bet? 🔥

Take a moment to do this powerful exercise with me:

💡 OLD MINDSET: “I will never lose all this weight.”
💪 NEW MINDSET: “I CAN do anything! I just need to focus on two pounds at a time.”

🎯 Here’s Your Challenge: What is your new mindset statement for today? Share it below! It could be anything that helps you take those small, powerful steps. 🌱

Remember: Two pounds. That’s all you need to focus on right now. Every tip and strategy you pick up will help you unlock the next two pounds and the next. It’s a process, not a race, and every little effort is building momentum! 🚀

Let’s cheer each other on! Drop your mindset shift in the comments and tag a friend who might need a boost today. 💬👇

Hi Everyone! 👋

I am so excited for this group to get started! First, I want you to take a moment and feel proud of yourselves for being here today. Committing to this goal is a powerful step towards taking charge of your health and well-being. Remember, this is not just about losing weight; it’s about gaining confidence, energy, and a more positive outlook on life!

Here’s why this journey is a win-win for everyone:

1. Outcome One: You’ve invested $35 to shift your focus away from daily distractions and into something that uplifts you—a positive routine, a supportive community, and a chance to learn healthier habits, recipes, and insights. 🌟
2. Outcome Two: You meet the challenge head-on, lose 4% or more of your weight in a way that feels energetic, focused, and fun—and you get a nice little financial reward too! 💰

Either way, you’re a winner. The moment you signed up, you proved to yourself that you’re ready for this. Let’s make this journey fun, inspirational, and uplifting for each other. Let’s cheer each other on more than ever before, post more, and show up for one another with our fullest enthusiasm. The more positive energy we share, the more we build a habit of speaking kindly to ourselves.

And if you haven’t already, now is also a fantastic time to dive into the 2Mindset Superblock! (Comes Free with BODi membership) It’s the perfect complement to our accountability group and can offer even more tools to help you succeed. 🎉

We’re a group of winners, and we each have something valuable to share. To kick things off, please introduce yourself in the comments below. Tell us where you’re from and what non-scale victory you hope to achieve in the next 4 weeks. Remember, every little step counts!

LETS DO THIS! 💪

Feel free to adjust any part of the message to make it feel even more personal to your style!

Hi! Amanda from NJ. I am trying to shift my focus away from the end goal (or number on the scale) to actions that I can take every day to increase longevity!

Christina B.

I'm Christina, a soon to be divorced mother of 3. I am hoping to see my energy levels improve in addition to the physical perks of weight-loss. I am working hard to be mentally, physical, and emotionally healthier this year. Glad to be here to help motivate me to reach towards my goals.

Has anyone done Dietbet with Ilana hosting? Does she provide help on here or are we just following our own diet plans? I’m new to this so I was curious😄 Thanks!

I recommend reading her book You Can drop it

Kelly

She is one of the more engaged hosts as mentioned above. In 2023 I did four of her DietBets and lost 40 pounds… And then proceeded to gain it all back in the past year plus. Starting over again and using this group for accountability.

Hi group. I need support. I’m on WW and have been following it on and off for months/years. Lately, I’ve been on a plateau and cannot bust through it. I want to lose about 30-40 lbs, but my weight keeps staying around the same. I’m hoping with DietBet I’ll have new motivation!

Starting weight: 157.7
GW:115-120

We can do this

Kelly

Sometimes you need to change things up, maybe try Ilana’s principles on this dietbet - water first and veggies most and plate it. Then go back to Weight Watchers after this DietBet, if it works!
