Michelle Kloese struggled with weight gain, high cholesterol, and high blood sugar due to early menopause and a stressful job. At 40, feeling unrecognizable in her body, she found motivation after a birthday trip. With the support of a health app from her new, less demanding job, she started logging her activity and maintaining a healthier diet. In two years, she successfully lost 61 pounds and improved her health, claiming more energy and resolved weight-related issues, entering a weight maintenance phase thereafter.
"I looked at the pictures and went, 'Oh gosh, I need to do something different,'" she said.
"Somebody would leave a cupcake on my desk, so I'd eat that, or parents would bring in a basket of candy," Kloese, now 42, told Business Insider.
"I have so much more energy - I'm not as sluggish and tired as I was feeling all the time," she said.
She had just started a new, less stressful edtech job, Kloese learned about a health app, Personify Health, connected through their insurance.
