Im going to be joining a Health Bet in a couple of weeks, has anyone ever done one before? What did you think? Would you do it again?

    I think that's the same as dietbet, yes? If so I did it a few times. I'll probably do it again some day. It's not too exciting, but if you need the extra motivation go for it. I like to join the really big groups so there's more people to interact with and tons of random strangers to cheer you on (kind of like here).

    Tip 1: Don't use it as your only means of motivation (money) to lose weight because generally the payout (depending on the size of the pot) usually is not that much more than you put in. Think of it as a move or lose money investment, rather than a move to win money scheme.

    Tip 2: Don't cheat: A lot of people line pockets and other non obvious places with extra weight and eat a huge meal right before first weigh in. In the end you are only cheating yourself.

    Tip 3: Have fun!
