Are you looking for some motivation to get you fitness program moving forward this summer? For years, experts have encouraged people to “team up” with others when losing weight. The accountability that comes from a good social network can make the difficult task of losing weight a little bit easier.
Popular television programs like The Biggest Loser have also inspired countless others to use a healthy dose of competition to jump-start their weight loss program. Combining both of these elements – accountability plus competition can be a great recipe for getting fit and shedding a few pounds.
This strategy has been so effective that some big names in health and nutrition are working to expand the Weight Loss Challenge to a city near you. Herbalife, International, the billion dollar health and wellness company has been training it’s network of Herbalife Independent Distributors to use a program called the Herbalife Weight Loss Challenge to bring people in their community together and learn effective strategies to losing weight together.
However, many people find that they just don’t have the time to exercise together or to meet up and discuss their weight loss program. That’s why more and more Herbalife Independent Distributors are using online tools like MyWLC.Net to “meet up” online and track their progress together.
Here’s how it works: A local distributor invites a few friends to lose weight together, and to track their results online using the MyWLC.Net website. This service is completely free for the participants to use because the distributor pays a small annual fee to use the service. As the participants begin to lose weight, they get more excited about the program and invite their friends, who in turn invite their friends to join in. As the online challenge grows, the Herbalife distributor who manages the online challenge keeps in touch with everyone by phone, email or web conferencing service and keeps everyone encouraged, and helps answer any questions the participants have about the program.
At the conclusion of the challenge, the “winners” typically earn a small cash prize. Best of all, everyone who participates has begun making lifestyle changes which will hopefully help them continue to lose weight long after the Herbalife WLC ends.
