It's a thing that seems to be getting pretty popular lately; I know of a couple bloggers I follow who have either competed in one or run one. Basically a diet bet is where a group of people pay x amount of money to participate in some kind of fitness challenge; at the end of the challenge whoever's met the goal splits the pot or whoever's lost the most wins. I've been thinking of doing one, because money is always a good motivational tool, but I didn't really know where to begin. Then my friend Theresa told me that her and her girlfriend were going to do one, and she invited me to join. So I did!
It's a 4 week challenge, that started today, to lose 4% of your body weight. Which for me is just under 8 pounds. I paid $25 to join the bet/game/whatever. I'm honestly not totally sure I can do it (2 pounds a week is hard) but I figure it's worth a shot. And hey, who knows, maybe I'll at least get my $25 back, right?
