    surely there must be someone on MFP who has tried it?

    I'm starting one today! Our pot is over $3,000! I think it's motivating...and you can lose money! What's not to love?

    I just started today too (well, late last night), and yeah, it's a $12,915 pot! I have to lose 9.6 pounds by April 3rd, but I know I can do it. :) Good luck to you guys, I'm going to use MFP every day to stay on my goal, so I really think these two sites work well together.

    This challenge is actually what led me to the site, so I'm going to start it in the middle of the one we're doing now: http://www.dietbet.com/games/9856 . It's from the blog of the sisters from the Biggest Loser. I've never loved any of the contestants so much, but they're both so inspiring and fun, I'm really excited to do that.

    Do you guys know if it's frowned upon to do 2 challenges that overlap? I joined for the MyFitspiration challenge, but then decided to just jump into the Anti-Jared last night because I didn't want to wait until 3/18.

    in their rules it says you can do up to 5 at a time. where did you hear that more than one is not ok?

    I've done two (lost both because I didn't try) but I'm getting ready to try another one. If anyone is interested, we start on Monday. Message me and I can give you the link. We are a small group of 9 so far with a $10 buy in.

    I love the concept. I've done 2 and it looks like I'm not going to win the 2nd one. I did find it helpful because it did help me lose weight- just not enough. I'm doing strength training as well as cardio so I'm just not losing as fast. I would say join one with a low pay in.

    Just go to the website and enter any game you want to :) there's no secret to it, find one you can afford or has a ton of players with a huge pot. dietbet.com
