How it works

Weekly weigh-ins

Log your weight (to one decimal). Upload a scale photo or smart-scale screenshot — we verify the timestamp.

Ranked by percentage

Everyone competes on equal footing: % of starting body weight lost, not pounds.

Win monthly & overall

Take home a $150 monthly prize each August, September, and October — plus $500 for the overall winner.

Fair, verified, private

Every weigh-in can be evidence-backed with EXIF timestamp checks. Choose whether other participants can see your actual weight or only your percentage.
