I started a diet bet today. It's a 6 month game. I know if I can make it 6 months Ill have created some habits that should stick long term. In case you don't know what diet bet is (I didn't until I read about it on here): You pay money and bet on yourself to lose 10% of your body weight in 6 months (broken down into smaller monthly goals). Everyone who loses the weight splits the money in the end. I've read that you don't usually win a ton, but the money is much less important for me than dropping the 10%!!! Here's to hoping it's just that little bit of extra motivation I need to keep me on track!

    I'm just wrapping mine up (started Jan 1) and I should make my 10% by the end of this month. The last month is maintenance / make-up. I really want to win - I should double my money overall, which is pretty nice. I am highly motivated to follow through on things I pay for, and it's really helped me keep my focus.

    That's awesome! I am hoping it will do the same for me too!
