FAQ

We believe weight loss is an investment in yourself. It takes time and effort to lose weight. You’ll also need some motivation to get you there. The more motivation you have, the quicker and easier it is to get to your goal!

Motivation is a key to losing weight, and by investing your money in yourself, you’ll work twice as hard to reach your goal. It is proven to work.

On top of that, we believe in the power of motivating others as a community. Reaching a goal alone is very difficult. Add some friends cheering you on and you’ll have that much more determination to achieve your goals!

Besides motivation, both consistency and persistence are also key components to losing weight! Our challenges are designed to reward your hard work in these areas. This will help to push you towards your goal weight!

How so?

 

• Motivation is a top factor in getting you to do the hard work that comes with losing weight. It’s not easy. A lot of the time, your motivation is low. Especially when it comes to maintaining a healthy weight or losing weight. Why is that? Any time something difficult happens, your motivation drops. Usually, you need some outside help. Motivation can be raised by something like a new idea that you’re passionate about or a reward for hard work. It can be an upcoming trip that you want to have more energy for and enjoy! It can be a goal 5k, challenging workout, hike, or even marathon that you want to train for and feel empowered to complete! It can be a friend, family member, coworker, or someone else cheering you on. We created this site to build a positive community that can share empowerment and motivation for others.

  In a work setting, you may have a big and difficult project coming up. Any time you feel like quitting, you need something to motivate you to keep your excitement up about reaching your goal! Our site was created with this in mind. We want you to post your ups and downs. We encourage everyone to cheer each other on. To educate each other and push together toward their ultimate goal.

• Consistency and persistence. We highly encourage you to post and interact with others daily. Just one encouraging comment posted on a friends blog can jumpstart their motivation! The more often you post, the more consistent you will be and will create a new habit that will help you stick to your goal in the long run. We will give bonus participation points based on your actions in the community. These site points add up over time and you can redeem them for free membership days!

We’d love for you to become a member and try out a challenge for yourself. The longer you stick with your goals with us, the more you’ll be rewarded. Every challenge membership with our website will give you gift points back to motivate others or redeem rewards for yourself!

The best part? You will still earn rewards even if you don’t hit goals. All you need to do is complete tasks to build healthy habits All progress is treated as progress!

Any members that post and/or send you offensive/graphic content or continually harass/pressure you in any way can be blocked.

You have the option to either block the member, or report them. (We recommend you do both! Let us know!)

 

You can block/report a user directly from their profile page below:

Or, you can find a user on the members’ page and block them from there without opening their profile:

The report form will look like this:

How it works:

Any time a member is reported, we will be notified. If a member is reported multiple times by different users, they will be suspended.

If a member is suspended more than 3 times, yet still continues to be reported, they will be reviewed for a more permanent ban time frame ranging from several weeks to permanent. Their ban time will be based on what they are being reported for and the severity.

This may also lead to being disqualified from any challenge(s) they are participating in and forfeiting their points.

As with pushing unhealthy weight loss methods, any members found to be soliciting diet products, pressuring others to purchase products, or continually requesting users to send gift points to them excessively will result in a warning. Spam requesting any form of payment and receiving reports will result in a warning.

Members are allowed to request gift points on their profile or in their blogs but are not allowed to excessively message other members requesting points be sent to them in a demanding way. Members can be reported for this and will be sent a warning if 3+ reports are received.

Motivator Coaches

 If we are accepting applications, you can apply to become a motivator coach with us! One of the benefits of being a coach is earning bonuses for motivating others to reach their goals! See the coach center page here for more info.

To discourage unhealthy weight loss/maintenance methods, we request any user with the goal of losing weight to not try to lose more than 12% or more during the 30-day challenge period.

Any challenge on our website that results in a member reaching an unhealthy BMI, sharing unhealthy practice images, extreme/over exercising or promoting unhealthy weight loss methods excessively will result in automatic disqualification of any challenge they are in and forfeit of earned points and bonuses. We also reserve the right to ban these members from the website if necessary.  We do NOT condone unhealthy body/weight loss promotions of any kind. 

Our website in no way condones the use of unhealthy and/or severely restrictive methods of dieting that result in losing large quantities of weight in a very short timeframe. Members may not lose more than 12% in a monthly challenge weight loss or maintenance challenge.

If we find that a member is soliciting, messaging, or posting unhealthy diet methods on the activity pages, profile, and/or message boards; the member will receive a warning to stop immediately.

Also, members can be reported for posting unhealthy dieting methods as well as for harassment, pressuring others, etc. Members will get 3 strikes. After the 3rd strike, they will be banned and disqualified from any challenge(s) they’re participating in. Further strikes will incur longer term or even permanent bans if necessary.

When you first sign up with our website, you’ll be asked to create a nickname/username, your name to confirm your identity, and the best email to reach you. This email will be your account email. Keep your email secret as it is your login.
You can change this information on the “edit profile” page along with your password.
You can choose to have a different nickname from your username if you’d like but it’s recommended you keep it the same to avoid confusion. We do not recommend you change your username unless absolutely necessary. Your username is the name that all of your friends and other members will use to interact with you. They will use your username to message you, mention you, or even send you points. We recommend you pick a username that will be long-term.
Any time you change your username, you will be unable to receive any messages, points, or notifications sent to your previous username. Example: Your username was JaneDoe previously and you change your name to JaneDoe2. Mentions, gifts etc, from friends to the JaneDoe username will not go through or you will not receive them. If you absolutely MUST change your username, make sure to let all of your friends know of the change!

In order to receive any payouts from your points from our site, you must verify your identity/account. This is to protect your points from being fraudulently paid out to the wrong person. If you can’t verify the account email we have on file, you’ll will need to submit some form of ID, but cover the ID number.

If you do not have a current official driver’s license or identification card, you can use an alternate form of ID such as student/college ID, passport, etc. If you have none of these, you may need to provide 2 forms of secondary documents such as utility bills, government mail, etc. You can change your email address and account info in your profile after verification.

Challenges and memberships on our site include a cancellation window. All challenges and memberships create pending points in our system that are later claimed as gift points. You can redeem these gift points for membership bonus days, gift cards, send them to friends, and more! If you redeem rewards or send other users any gift points received or earned, they are non-reversible. 

 

• Challenges have a 2 day calendar period. After that time, you must complete your challenge tasks to claim rewards back. After 2 days, you must complete your challenge tasks to claim your pending points and rewards at the end of the challenge. If any of the challenge tasks are not completed by the end of your current cycle, your points will be considered forfeit with your membership fee. After the 2-day period, you can no longer receive a reimbursement. You may still choose to cancel future recurring payments but will still have your current membership access until it expires. Any points already gifted cannot be refunded.
• supporters:  2-calendar day cancellation period. You must verify your membership and come back after that time to claim your pending points. If you do not claim these points by the end of your current cycle, they will be forfeit. After the 2-day period, you can no longer receive a reimbursement.
