Tips on how to get started on PEERtrainer
Here Are Some Other Tips To Help You Be Successful:
1. Develop the Logging Habit.
Daily logging is the cornerstone of effective weight loss, and engages
you in a process called "self-monitoring." Basically a conversation
with yourself each day.
2. If you are new to logging, only focus on that for the first few days. It takes a while to develop a new habit, and you want to start this process by breaking them down into easy, achievable goals.
3. Find active groups and teams. This is the SINGLE most important factor in the success of a group.
Yes, you might want to find people with similar interests, geography,
backgrounds etc-- but first and foremost find active members.
4. If you don't, join This Team and you will be personally welcomed into PEERtrainer.
5. Start slow. Find achievable, short term goals.
Whether you want to lose 50 pounds or train for a marathon, it is going
to take time. Take your time. It will make it easier, you'll be more
successful, and you'll have more fun.

7. The PEERtrainer "Aha Moment." The other members of your
group or team can see and read your logs, and you see what you are
eating. The first week on PEERtrainer is an eye opener for most people.
8. You can join as many groups as you want, our users suggest
that three is a good number to be part of. The only thing we ask is to
be positive and active in your groups.
9. You can invite friends directly into your group, through an
"Invite a Friend" feature. Put in their email address, and they will be
sent an invitation right to your group. When they sign up, they will be
automatically placed in your group.
