I hit a low point in my life where I knew I needed to make some big changes. I decided to focus on changing me, both mentally and physically. Two years later I finished my MBA program and I have lost over 70lbs!

Withings first introduced me to DietBet; they invited me to a game. It was a pleasant experience. Losing weight is hard and doing it alone is even tougher. People in my life support me with my weight loss; however the support they are giving is not the same support as someone else trying to lose weight supporting you. These challenges proved a sense of comfort by letting you know that the people you are playing against are facing the same struggles as you, but they are still cheering you on to make your goal. DietBet challenges allowed me to be part of a worldwide team with the common goal.

What appeals the most to me about DietBet is the positive motivation you get from everyone and the connection you feel towards the other players. Yes, once in a while you will come across someone that is just out for the money, but most of the time it’s people facing the same struggles as you. The challenge to lose weight isn’t so bad when people facing the same struggles as you surround you and you are able to push them forward as they push you forward too.
