I was below goal for round 1 but this round I lost momentum. I didn’t make the round 2 goal but I am not giving up! I need to get back to my round 1 routine including: meeting daily steps, no “bad” carbs, 1,000 calories daily deficit, and logging all food.

I might join a kickstarter for extra motivation.

Congratulations to all the round 2 winners. I plan to be back in the winners’ circle for round 3, 4, 5 and 6!

Congrats on showing up for yourself today!

I think joining a kickstarter is a great way to help nudge you in staying focused

Laurie K.

Same! I just joined a Kickstarter for this exact same reason! The holidays this year are going to be tough for me ?

Just finished month 2 on a Transformer and I'm about a pound over my goal (whoops!).

I'm always happy with progress, and I know the holidays are going to be tough, so I'm hoping that this Kickstarter is just enough extra encouragement to make my next months goal and get through the holiday season 😊

Adding a Kickstarter for extra motivation is such a great idea, Laurie! And you still have plenty of time to catch up in your Transformer! I feel like this is the perfect time to get ahead before the holidays. You've got this!

I was about 2 lbs over my goal as of this morning but I'm still making good progress (we'll see where I'm at tomorrow morning lol).

So even if this month is a wash, I'll just be glad that our next weigh in is *before* Thanksgiving 😀

If I don’t hit my goal this weight in, do I just lose this rounds money but I’m still in the game? It’s been a rough month.

Thanks everyone. Hormones are derailing me and I’m above the weight I started at the beginning of this challenge. Going to have to work hard and figure some stuff out as it’s making me miserable:
Failed this round but going to try to keep going.

Jessica T.

Same here, Mary. We've got this! Let's focus and crush these goals together!

Unfortunately, I’m not able to weigh in this round. I had a major knee surgery last week and can’t stand properly yet. I’m ready for the second round.

Can you contact support about possible option? Not sure there are any

Mary S.

If you think this game is going to be too rough for your condition, reach out to customer service. They were very understanding when I was in a similar position.

I'm definitely looking forward to this game!! My goal weight to reach for this year is 185 (starting weight in Nov 2023 was ~250). With this game's starting weight at 199.4 for me, my target is less than 8% away!!

I've definitely taken a bit of a break this last month and I didn't take my last game as seriously as I would have liked, so I'm ready to hit the ground running again 😀

Do you have to be a member to do official weigh ins each month and be eligible for individual round winnings? I just want to make sure I do this right and also don't get disqualified or something.

Members get to do verified weekly weigh-ins for the chance to win a prize like an insta pot or something.

Everyone in this game gets to do monthly weigh-ins to win back their money (and a portion of the pot from people who don't make the goal). There is also the chance to win a treadmill at the end of round 2 in this game.

You don't have to be a member to win the treadmill, to get money back, or to receive some of the remaining pot.

You can update your weight unofficially anytime, but it won't count towards the monthly goals.

Susie R.

I believe you only get disqualified if you have excessive weight loss

Do you win $ each round? I've only done the individual month games and most recently a 3 month game....This one looks different.

Laurie K.

Yes. If you make the % goal for each round, then you will win $20+ a portion of the pot. (Your winnings won't be credited to your account until the end of the game though)

Half of the $40 we pay each month goes towards the last month's pot, so it's worth the equivalent of $140+ a portion of the remaining pot if you make the 10% goal.

To keep things safer, you are required to lose at least 6% by the end of month 5 if you want a chance at the final pot. So make sure you weigh in every month even if you don't make the weight % goal.

Susie R.

There is also a chance you can be disqualified if you lose too much too quickly to support healthy weight loss.
