  • What an inspiring group!! Some of you are off to an incredible start!

    Early on I saw some of you ask about your weigh-in goals and / or losing too much weight. The exact breakdowns are in our Make the New Year Magic Transformer FAQs, but I want to put your mind at ease about a few things.

    First, your goals are all set already based off your initial weigh-in. They will not change during this game. If you lose more this month, you're that far ahead for your Round 2 goal. To check your monthly goals click the Round Info button by your Round 1 progress on desktop, and All to the right of the Rounds at the top of the app.

    Second, you would have to be experiencing some very unhealthy weight loss to be disqualified during a round. Unless you experience an illness, in which case you can reach out to support@dietbet.com, losing 12% of your starting weight during one round is unlikely. See the breakdown for each round here.

    Third, there is a difference between our prizes for this game (awarded monthly to anyone active in this game, regardless of weigh-ins or membership) and Weekly Membership Prizes (awarded weekly to Members who have completed the weekly progress weigh-in by Wednesday of each week). Find more information here.

    How do you feel about your weight loss so far?
    A) I've had a large loss already and it feels great!
    B) Slow and steady, I'm feeling good about my pace
    C) I'm just getting started
    D) I haven't seen a loss yet, but I'm doing the right things!
    E) I'm struggling to get started
    F) I haven't even looked at a scale yet
    G) Other - tell us about it!

Great job, everyone!!!

Steven, if you miss one of the Rounds, you just forfeit the winning for that Round (half of each monthly bet goes towards the Round winnings and half goes toward the overall winnings). Therefore, you can miss a round or two and still come out on top!

One thing to make sure of is that you don't miss the required Round 5 weigh-in. Everyone is required to have lost at least 6% at that point to continue so there are no unhealthy sprints to the finish.

This is all laid out in the very last category in the FAQs! https://support.waybetter.com/hc/en-us/articles/24340189536403-2025-Make-the-New-Year-Magic-Transformer-FAQs

  • Hi, Lisa 48 here. I’m way up on my weight! I’ve done DietBets (2016-18) before and they helped me get to a strong & fit place. I’m in the trenches of menopause and have developed a heart arrhythmia. This heart arrhythmia has held me down (from jogging & gym), as I’m scared of triggering VT & ending up back in the hospital. For 2025 I hope to add more elevation gains (hiking) and start jogging a little. I’m going to clean up my nutrition and tame this sugar demon. I’ve started back at the gym & I plan to strength train 3-4X week. I have a beautiful 9 month old granddaughter and I want to comfortably run after her when she starts running next year. Salud to new, healthier all of us!

My goal is to do brightlineeating 98% of this year without any exceptions. 358 of 365 is 98% so that gives me 7 days for Christmas break. I’m prioritizing my health every year from this year forward.

  • The weigh-in period has started!

    Are you...
    A) Pumped and have already taken the leap and submitted your official starting weight!
    B) Waiting until the first day of 2025
    C) Still wrapping up some things (holiday travel, time off, get togethers, etc..) and weighing in just a bit later

    Some weigh-in tips
    * Please refer to the 2025 Game Changer Transformer FAQs for information and message support@dietbet.com with any further questions.
    * Stick to airport attire (no shoes/baggy clothing, hats or heavy jewelry, etc.) and step on the scale on a hard, flat surface.
    * Make sure your weigh-in word is clear.
    * Keep your face visible in your full-body shot.
    * You can play 3 Kickstarters and 3 Transformers at once, and reuse an approved weigh-in within 48 hours, but you must start the weigh-in process to select that option.

    You can officially weigh-in anytime during the first 14 days of the game, so you can ease into this when you'd like. It's also not too late to invite your friends! Use the button up top to get even more social support from friends and family.

    Reminder! Only half of your bet for this month goes into this first pot. The other half goes into our huge final pot at the end of the game. So *when* you win, remember that when you see your winnings reported!

    I'm so excited for us all and the amazing changes to come! Let's do this!!

A - Already got my diet mapped out. Got my workout plan and making progress. Tomorrow is just another day that ends in Y. Progress starts the moment we decide to start making it.
