I accepted Faith's challenge. I entered Game On 2013, and I had to put my money where my mouth was.
The Game On diet works off accountability and competition. Everyone pays a $10 entry. You then work with your team (those who will hold you accountable) to beat all other teams (your competition) for cash and other prizes.
There are several elements to the game and each element is worth points. Some elements are standardized while others are chosen by the individual participant to address his or her specific needs/goals/desires. Here is the breakdown:
Standard
1. Sleep at least 6 hours a night.
2. Drink 3 liters of water a day.
3. Exercise 20+ minutes a day.
4. Communicate with one team member and one non-team member every day.
5. Weigh-in once a week.
Personalized
6. Pick a meal plan/diet and stick to it.
7. Incorporate a new good habit.
8. Eliminate an existing bad habit.
Extras - extra points can be earned by paying your entry fee before competition begins, reporting your weekly scores on time, losing weight, etc.
This could be fun. Right now, it sounds hard. I can do each of those things individually. Can I do all of them?every day? for six weeks? We shall see.
