    DietBet

    For the right person this works well

    • Length of Use: 2+ years
    Overall Experience:

    I've lost weight - sometimes quite a lot - every time I've used DietBet. I've also made a profit each time. If you can apply discipline to losing weight, you need to apply the same discipline to weighing in during defined 48-hour windows - which means some advance planning including on some occasions taking bathroom scales away in my suitcase.

    If you meet the weight loss goals, and get your weigh-ins on time, you will at least get your money back, and in my experience can make a profit too - but it's the additional focus the process brings that helps keep me on the straight and narrow. (I've regained the weight afterwards, but that's my fault, not theirs.)

    As time has gone by, the amount of social interaction in the chat seems to have decreased.

    Pros and Cons:

    • Supports weight loss
    • Short and long term approaches
    • Supports planning
    • Relies on failure (of weight loss or planning) in others
    • Quite US-focussed
    • No links to other services

    Bottom Line: Yes, I would recommend this to a friend
