Has anyone used this site before?

I just signed up for a kickstarter to - well - kickstart some additional motivation.

It seems like a neat idea.

    I've done a few, currently in a Transformer game right now. It's fun and the money incentive is nice.

    It's just the type of dietbet you can sign up for. there's that or transformer.
    Kickstarter is generally 4% weight loss over 4 weeks
    Transformer is a longer term goal. 6 months and each month is broken down to a round ie) 3% loss month 1, 5% cumulative month 2, etc.

    I like DietBet. I did two kickstarters last month and this month I'm doing a transformer. It does add a certain level of stress as I want to make my goals. I suppose that's the point. I need all that money back to pay bills so I really need to stick to it.

    DietBet is awesome! It's so motivational and loaded with wonderful and supportive people...much like many of the people here on MFP! :smiley: I'm currently hosting a 6-month Transformer game of my own and getting set to host a Kickstarter game. Wishing you all the best in reaching your DB goals! :smiley:
