Hey everyone! Just a reminder on how our pledges are divided.

Each month is a Round. We pledge $40 each Round: $20 goes into that Round and $20 into Round 6. This makes Round 6 the largest pot by the end of the challenge.

So, if you hit your target weight for Round 1 and only win around $20, don’t worry — you didn’t lose money! Half of your pledge is still in Round 6, where the bigger payout will come later. A lot of us will hit our goals in Round 1, so just keep that in mind!

Thank you, Kirsten!

DietBet also takes a cut too though, right? I’m not sure if that is for every round or just the final pot at the end though.

Isolated in my bedroom all day yesterday because I have COVID (very minor symptoms) and workers came to finish up kitchen cabinet refacing (yes, they were aware I had just tested positive that morning). I had my snacks & lunch in my mini crockpot knowing I had to stay in my room. My treadmill is in my room so I still got 60 min walk and 10k steps in.

Does anyone have any non alcoholic beers they like? Lower carb, but I haven't found ones I LOVE yet.

Brooklyn Brewing and Lagunitas IPA are my top.

I really enjoy Athletic Brewing Co. Their Run Wild IPA is my favorite!

I don't know about the carb content, but I love the Sam Adams Just the Haze, and Collective Arts Emerald Dark is really good (but carb content says 19...). If you're into IPAs, Partake has a great 10 calorie hoppy water, more of a beer like flavor/punch than just the regular Hop Waters.

Hey everyone!

I participated in this challenge last year, and I wanted to clarify something that tripped up a few people — how our pledges are divided.

Each month is a Round. We pledge $40 each Round: $20 goes into that Round and $20 into Round 6. This makes Round 6 the largest pot by the end of the challenge.

So, if you hit your target weight for Round 1 and only win around $20, don’t worry — you didn’t lose money! Half of your pledge is still in Round 6, where the bigger payout will come later. A lot of us will hit our goals in Round 1, so just keep that in mind!

Let’s do this!

Hi Kirsten! Thank you for sharing this! There are definitely always a lot of concerns in the first month as players figure this out. :purple_heart: For anyone who is new and reading this - and I hope you do to feel better prepared! - here is the game FAQ page for more game information. https://support.waybetter.com/hc/en-us/articles/24340189536403-2025-Make-the-New-Year-Magic-Transformer-FAQs. Thanks for the support, Kristen! It's going to be a fantastic group!

  • Welcome everyone!!

    I'm so happy you're here and committed to living a healthier life. It's fantastic that you've put your faith in yourself to make the first 6-months of 2025 magical, uplifting, and life changing!

    I'm Kristin, a mom of two from Minnesota, and I'll be your host and biggest supporter through the next 6 months! I’m a WayBetter fan and DietBet player since way back in 2013. I love this community and am so inspired by all of you!

    I regularly host a variety of games on the WayBetter app, but every so often I get to go on this 6-month Transformer journey with you - and it's the best! Past January Transformers have ended with tens of thousands of people making life-changing improvements in their health and well-being. It's the most incredible game of the year and it's such an honor to be a part of that!

    I would love if you’d tell us a little bit about yourself and why you're looking forward to this 6-month experience!

So excited for this journey! I know this game starts on January 1st, but I’m going to see what healthy habits I can establish before then!

Pretty good! I’ve started taking the stairs instead of using the elevator at my job. And I’ve discovered a fresh pressed juice shop for some healthy green juices :green_heart:

That's so exciting! Way to go!
