99 Problems But Weight Ain't One

That's the name of the game.

What game? The DietBet game.

So far, 71 people are playing, but it's likely it'll get over 100 players!

Let me break it down for you:

Goal: Lose 4% of your body weight in the next 4 weeks.

Buy in: $30

Winners: Split the pot

Current Pot Size: $2100.00

Start Date: Aug. 19

End Date: Sept. 15

Okay folks. Here's the deal.

These past few weeks, I've been attempting to eat healthier, snack smarter, drink less, exercise more. Well, maybe I shouldn't say weeks, more like days. Anyway, so far, I've lost .4 pounds. That's POINT 4, not 4. I need some more motivation in my life! And nothing says motivation like 100 other friends doing it with you and cash on the line, am I right or am I right?

Roo, over at Neon Fresh, is gathering people again for a group DietBet.

You pay $30 to play (which goes into the group pot).

You have 4 weeks to lose 4% of your body weight. Which, let me tell you something, is TOTALLY doable.
For example: If you weigh 130 pounds, you only have to lose 5.2 pounds. That's it! And you're a winner.

There can be an unlimited amount of winners, so essentially if EVERYONE loses 4%, then you basically get your money back. BUT - - With over 100 people potentially in the game, there are many who are bound to not hit that goal and then voila! More money for YOU!

It's a pretty neat site and I'm kind of excited about it.

The "Official" weigh in is on Aug. 17 and 18. 

ON YOUR MARK, GET SET ... WEIGH IN!

"Two days before your game begins, you'll be prompted to submit your official starting weight.

Our standard weigh-in process involves you submitting two photos, one of you on a scale in airport security attire; another of the scale's readout with your weigh-in word."

NOTE: We never post weigh-in photos and
your actual weight is kept private by default.

This video will probably explain it all better:

So.... Who's with me??? 

Let's make some mula and shed some el-bees, eh??

Whoo hoo!

(Can you tell I'm pumped? ;) )
