DietBet Challenge Champion – Lorena Gordon

This morning we’re congratulating Lorena Gordon on the back of winning the DietBet Challenge.

For those not familiar with the challenge, DietBet is an online weight loss game where you put money in the pot and after four weeks, whoever’s lost 4% of their body weight will split the pot.

The challenge itself kicked off in mid-February, and after the month of moving, our very own Lorena Gordon claimed top spot, saying that DietBet came at the perfect time for her.

 

“I have been on my own health and fitness journey for several months now, and part of that included a challenge I have been doing called “75 Hard” and DietBet fell right in the middle of it.”

“I love a challenge and I love to win, so I thought what better way to keep me motivated during my 75 days. My journey is about health and fitness with a side bonus of weight loss.”

 

With targeted micro-goals and the chance to win a cash prize, DietBet says 96% of players lose weight, and it encourages players to post their weights regularly during the game to track progress.

DietBet is now worldwide with over 400,000 players in 90 countries taking part in different activities every day. For Lorena, a mix of walking and exercise classes is now part of her daily routine.

 

“The challenge included a minimum of 90 minutes of exercise per day, so I walk for 45 minutes and go to my local rec centres for a one-hour class. My classes include boot camp, step and sculpt, core conditioning, functional training and I have a newfound love of yoga.”

 

Congratulations once again, Lorena, and best of luck with the remainder of your “75 Hard” challenge.
