Well, didn't want to put it right out on the main board, but these are from scratch, real ingredient, extra sharp cheddar cheese puffs!!! We made up the recipe for our brand new babycake cake pop maker and it was A M A Z I N G! I am just guessing you are NOT interested in the recipe??

Deborah M.

Actually, real ingredients sound delicious! Though I don't even know what a cake pop maker is. The thing that was so gross about the ones at my nephew's party was the taste of chemicals. Blech! Congrats on your win! Spend my money wisely :-)

Great job on winning Fit Mamas!

Deborah M.

Thanks! Your weight loss in the last month was AMAZING! I love peeking at other peoples graphs. So inspiring.

Lisa H.

Thanks, but it was my first one so I figured some of that was water weight and some was effort.

Is that $19 plus your $30 back?

I did feel better that they listed me as a Runner-Up. Sounds better than the opposite of Winner :-)

Deborah M.

Yes, 49 and change! I'm glad they differentiate the people who were close from the people who quit. Wishing you a solid blue circle in this game, though :-)

Thanks for joining this game. I'm going to try to recruit some more friends and family. Good luck!

Hey, I signed up for another one. I was thinking 5+ days from now but they all had 1-2 players and I'd like a bigger crowd. So I signed up for Fit Mamas - starts in 17 hours!

Deborah M.

Oh the pressure! All right, I guess I'll do it. I might as well join a third one so that I am extra motivated to keep up with it and earn more money for the cute jeans I'm planning to buy when I hit my goal weight. I'm glad this one weighs out later in the week. These early in the week weigh-outs are so much harder.

Stacie S.

Yay! It is only a $20 bet :-)

I've really enjoyed doing this and want to do another DietBet to maintain my momentum. Are you signed up for one already?

Deborah M.

I'm in another one that ends in two weeks, and then I think I'll take a week or two off before joining the next one. I was a half pound under the goal last week, and this morning I'm half a pound over! So I won't be able to eat the delicious meal I'm making tonight, and that gets a little tiring. I'm thinking two weeks of maintaining my weight will have me ready for the next one. I did a little calculating, and three months of dietbets would get me within 2 pounds my goal. I just have to make sure I don't burn out.

Deborah M.

Maybe what I really need is a scale that measures in tenths instead of halves. My next goal ends in .4, so it would kill me if I got within a tenth of a pound and missed it!

Still looking good! I slowed down the last couple of days so I'm concerned.

Deborah M.

Thanks! Dink plenty of water and only it your own food whenever possible. That's how I made it through a potluck Friday night and a conference yesterday without gaining even half a pound.

Stacie S.

Thanks for the tip. I hope you have a good day.

Your graph is beautiful :-)

Deborah M.

Thank you. I'm a little nervous that I haven't lost any weight since Friday. Now's not the time to plateau!

Still looking good! Thanks for the tip about apples. It was yummy, nice to have something crunchy to chew, and satisfied that sweet craving :-)
