DIET BET.....LETS GET FIT!



Recommended Posts

I’ve created a diet bet and I’m hoping some of you will join with me!

Diet bet is an app where you can make money to lose weight! I’m hoping to get a big group together to join my bet! You pay 35 dollars toward the pot to enter the game, and then you have 28 days to lose 4% of your body weight (totally doable!!!!) At the end, everyone who loses the 4% of their body weight gets to split the pot!!!! This could be fun for everyone, pre op or post op!

I’ve attached some more info! A great way to make friends and hold one another accountable! Please message me if you have questions.

And here is the link to sign up!

Great idea for pre-op but post-op won't be able to enter, there is a specific rule that those who have undertaken WLS cannot enter dietbet games, if they do and are caught out they will be disqualified.

I also thought that people with wls were excluded

Nope, if you look at the rules it says that you can’t participate if you engage in medical weight loss procedures during the course of the diet bet! I’m happy to screenshot the rules if you would like!

If I knew how to delete a post on here I would 😂 who knew that trying to encourage others would turn into a debate from the internet police 😂 I promise I did my research beforehand so yeah 🤷‍♀️

If you're caught engaging in the following practices, you'll be disqualified:

  1. Binging
  2. Purging
  3. Excessive fasting
  4. Hydration or dehydration for the sole purpose of manipulating your weight
  5. Undergoing any kind of bariatric surgery, liposuction, or other weight-loss procedures

They have sophisticated algorithms that pick up unusual losses. If they suspected something I am not sure what the procedure would be

I know plenty of people who have had WLS who participate in these, and again, I didn’t post this to cause a debate with the internet police. Only to encourage others to do what we’re all here trying to do in a fun way! If you don’t want to participate, that’s great, you don’t need to be in this thread then. Have a good evening 😊

How far out from surgery are most of the participants that already joined or is this a mixed pot?

Not being the internet police we would just like clarification and confirmation.

What exactly does " Engaging in WLS medical procedures during the course of the diet bet" mean?

It’s a mixed pot, and there isn’t even a winner...no one will be receiving more money than anyone else. Everyone who loses the 4% splits the pot. So it isn’t unfair

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.
