I'm currently involved in a DietBet that I started and so I won't be doing a round of CLX for at least 3 more weeks. --if I start lifting i'll gain, so I'm focusing on cardio.

I'll be checking this forum but maybe not posting so much since I won't be actually doing the workout.

Don't you guys quit on me!

    What is DietBet?
    I just assumed we would all encourage each other no matter what program/diet... hence the title chat/check-in...we can't leave anyone out!

    I started a dietbet with a few friends after seeing it a few times. It was a $35 entry fee. 4 weeks to lose 4% of your start weight.

    I'm having a hard time because I'm already ahead of most of the people in the bet, but I started it to encourage many of my friends to kick start their year with health.

    I think I've lost maybe 2% of the weight.

    I feel that way with this PCOS thing I just got diagnosed with -- like you want me to workout like crazy and do all this other crap to lose .5 a pound once in a while?!!? Oh well!!!!! I am getting an insulin resistant diet cookbook so maybe that should help!

    I don't have PCOS, but I do have endometriosis. Recently I read that sugars feed those types of cells. Since Jan 14 when I stopped drinking "regular" sodas on the "regular," it seems like the endo hasn't been as bad.
    There have been more benefits from less soda too -

    Update on DietBet - 2 people weighed in at 100% (they need to verify), but I needed to lose ~1pound to be at 100%. I'm sad :(
