- Congratulations to everyone that participated in this game! Whether you reached your goal or not, you are still a winner in my book! You committed and put forth the effort towards living a healthier lifestyle. If you replaced one unhealthy habit with a healthy one, or just adopted a new healthy habit, you succeeded.
Be sure to get your final weigh-ins submitted by 11:59 pm (Pacific Time) on February 11th. If you have any trouble at all please reach out to us at support@waybetter.com and we will be happy to help!

I’m so close, but so far from hitting my goal. These last three pounds are hanging on for dear life. Win or lose the bet, I know I made great progress: I made it through two trips without gaining any weight, I’ve been exercising for at least 30 minutes almost every day, and my clothes are definitely getting looser! I turned 60 last month & I’m determined to make this decade better than the last one!

As we enter in to week 3, I hope everyone’s still hanging strong. I’m super proud of myself for staying in the fight. Even with returning to work just before the challenge started (was off for 2 months after the birth of my second child in October), and the chaos of having a tiny tyrant of a 2 year old running around, I’ve been still able to will myself to get a workout in 5 days a week (double workouts on the 5th day!) at 930 or 10 pm no less when by all rights I could just call it quits for the day. But I REFUSE to give up this time. It’s too important. My wife and kids are too important. My health is too important. Down 6lbs thus far, I know the gains (er, losses?) will plateau, so trying my best to soak in the wins while I can!
Biggest win thus far has been on the diet side. Prior to starting I was having something sweet with every single meal. And in between meals when I would get bored. The holidays only exacerbated that with all the candy’s and cookies and treats around. In the last 2 weeks I had 2 cheat days: a pre planned trip for gelato with our oldest, and my buckeyes played in the CFP natty. Outside of those 2 days, all I had was 2 (yes, only 2) gummy bears, no other sweets. I’ve replaced the Rolos and peppermint bark with carrots, apples, and nuts.
As an added incentive, I decided I’m not allowed to cut my hair or shave until I lose 10 lbs. looking real scruffy right now lol.
