  • Posting again about my payout. An email response to “way better” came back with a quick response and a link. Followed directions and still have an error. So frustrating!

Finally got logged in correctly to get my payout but my link had expired so I have to get a new one. Looking back at my account I noticed I’ve let several winnings expire for not requesting the payout correctly. I think they make it difficult on purpose.

  • Yay! Finally

Putting another reminder here because my other game just finalized and there are people losing it over how much DietBet took…

First of all, the point of these isn’t to make money! The point it to shed the pounds and get into a better lifestyle than we previously were. The money is just an incentive.

Secondly, DietBet is very upfront with their fees and such. They take anywhere from 10-25% of the pot and the host also gets a %.

And lastly, the amount we get also depends on how many people won. I truly wish that EVERYONE who entered, reached their goal and won. Isn’t that what this is about? Cheering each other on to success and reaching out goals? I’d give my entire wager away if it meant everyone reached their goal.

So before this game finalizes remember the real reason you’re here. Take a deep breath and remember where you were a month ago and how you FELT compared to where you are today and how you feel today! This was truly an amazing group. I loved every minute! So don’t ruin that for us who have loved this group. If you don’t have anything nice to say, don’t say it all. 😊❤💪

I've never been unhappy before but I actually lost money on this one even though I won because I did the bet+membership. They promise you will get your money back if you win and I didn't realize that didn't Include the membership costs for the month.

Yup! They have definitely changed their pay out rates. Will not be diet betting again.

My husband just told me that his company is sponsoring a family day at one of those aerial parks March 1st. Max weight is 250 lbs and as of this morning, I’m 29 lbs away.

I’m not going to starve myself or exhaust myself in trying to get to that weight by then, but man what a great motivation to get to do that one day.

My 6 yr old loves urban air and she wishes I could jump with her. Of course, max weight is 250 lbs.

When I started this journey, I was 315 lbs. This morning I was 279. Almost there baby girl! ❤

Being a woman and having a menstral cycle all while doing a dietbet...sucks!

I started this challenge with a BMI classified as obese, and now I’m just overweight lol

Hit a plateu last week, but went on a liquid diet yesterday & ran a mile... it brought me down to my goal :sweat_smile: this is my first diet bet in 2-4 years, so I'm proud of the discipline I've been able to hold down this month. Good luck everyone!
