DietBet Taps Seven Bloggers for Weight Loss Game
Dietbet.com, an online social dieting game that gives players the opportunity to win money through weight-loss competitions, is working with seven women bloggers to give them the chance to lose weight and earn money for themselves and for their charity of choice.
Each of the seven bloggers is in a competition to lose four percent of their body weight. The winner receives $5000 for themselves and for their charity or the pot is split in the event of a tie.
The bloggers who are losing weight for winnings and giving are Amy Oztan (Selfish Mom), Amanda Lonsdale and Amy Schirmer (Dilettante Club), Kathleen Canedo, (Brutalism), Kimberly Coleman (Foodie City Mom), Angie Vinez (Blessed Beyond Words) and Shari Simpson (Earth Mother Just Means I’m Dusty).

I am so excited about the challenge! I’m up against some super competitors, so I’m pushing myself really hard. We’re at the end of week one, so just 3 more weeks to go! many of us are tweeting about the challenge with the #dietbet hashtag. Hope you’ll follow along.
wow now I could go for a deal like that to lose weight. It
would be the right motivation for me to blog about & lose it
finally.
This is such a fun promotion that I’m planning on doing it in February (on my own dime) with some of my readers. What makes it great is that everyone can win AND a portion of the proceeds go to charity. Best of all, some of us know each other (i.e. Amy, Shari and myself) so we get to have a little extra fun with it (i.e. I gave Shari a donut maker on the first day of the challenge). I really think/hope that we are all going to meet our goals!
