“I signed up for a HealthyWager because I needed something to keep me motivated to lose weight. I knew if money was on the line, I’d take it more seriously.
[Throughout my challenge] I had times where I would get really frustrated, especially with plateaus when I knew I was working my butt off. Being able to vent to a fellow HealthyWager challenger on the message board and get their suggestions was helpful. Being able to talk to women my age who have the exact same weight loss experience (trouble losing weight when you’re over 40) and know they were having a difficult time was helpful. It kept me going so I wouldn’t quit.”
