“I’m so happy to be more active with my son Lincoln now,” Jenny S. states on one of the (many) benefits she's experienced since losing weight. “He even joins me on hikes, does burpees, and literally runs beside me saying ‘I know you can do it Mommy.’”
Formally active in various athletics, Jenny saw her weight steadily increase after college and into motherhood. She signed up for HealthyWage and bet that she would lose 100 pounds in 11 months. "Having a monetary bet and a concrete deadline to lose the weight gave me the spark I needed to get started, and the urgency to keep going strong each week."
Jenny began counting calories using MyFitnessPal, sticking with a low-carb diet and increased her water intake with drinking at around five liters a day. "Every day was a conscious decision to stay on track and a conscious decision to not make excuses." In addition, she jumped back into exercising with daily workouts that varied between CrossFit, HIIT, and strength training programs.
When Jenny's final weigh-in 11 months later confirmed she had hit her weight loss goal of 100 pounds, she won $5,135! "I know I put in the work, but I truly give so much credit to HealthyWage...I'm excited for my new healthy life!"
