About Extrapounds.com
Extrapounds.com is an independent weight loss social community
This unique website increases the likelihood of successful weight loss and maintenance by providing access to a community of people who share a common goal: to lose weight. Extrapounds.com is here to give members access to a user-friendly, convenient and personal space or web log that charts progress and stores relevant information concerning weight loss and diet. Our goal is to help promote self awareness for those undertaking a journey towards weight loss and increased self-esteem.
Extrapounds.com has proven to help people lose weight due to the vital support, advice and motivation that members receive from a like-minded community. It also encourages the user to form a strong sense of accountability and commitment to their weight loss journey. Members use their blog to express the highs and lows of their journey which is essential for dealing with psychological aspects of weight loss. The comradeship and fun blogging features of the website take the despondency out of dieting.
As well as this, the site provides practical tools to track weight loss progress. Members can log their daily food intake and activity undertaken as well as watch their weight go down on a graph and record their body measurements.
How it differs from other websites
Extrapounds.com has various attributes that single it out from any other weight loss website.
- From the beginning, Extrapounds.com has been built with the objective to create blogs specifically for people who want to record their weight loss. Therefore these weight loss blogs include exclusive tools, for example weight loss graphs and trackers, that are UNIQUE on the Internet.
- Because Extrapounds.com focuses solely on weight loss, these weight loss blogs create a unique social community with an extraordinary sense of motivation that helps people to achieve their dreams. It is more focused than other communities such as MySpace, meaning you're more likely to find people experiencing the same thing as you.
- Extrapounds does not recommend a specific diet program. Instead it focuses on Motivation, Support and Tracking what you really do. This makes a big difference. After all, losing weight is easy: eat less, exercise more and you lose weight! Guaranteed! However, sticking to these basic principles is not easy, and this is where Extrapounds.com comes to the rescue.
- Extrapounds.com attracts members from all over the world, making it not only international but multilingual. Members have joined the site from the U.S, Europe and Australia, as well as Puerto Rico, Argentina and The United Arab Emirates. Blogs are written in a variety of languages including English, French, Persian and Norwegian.
- At Extrapounds.com you will find members following a variety of diets from counting calories, the Atkins Diet and Weight Watchers to the use of weight loss medications, supplements or weight loss surgery. You wouldn't go to Weight Watchers for support and motivation if you're following Jenny Craig. However, if you're doing Weight Watchers or Jenny Craig you can come to Extrapounds.com and benefit from both.
