Anyone here using Omada and seeking more support? I'm in the early weeks of the program and am happy with it except that my group is really quiet, which is so disheartening. Maybe we could form our own little MFP Omada group here?

    I am in the 2nd part of the program. My Omaha group was quiet too and wouldn't have lost weight with just that program. Take what you can from the lessons and keep on in here 😊

    Thank you idon'tcare. OK, good advice, thank you. I was thinking that my group was a dud--but, maybe that's just how people are. I guess you can't automatically assume everyone wants to engage with strangers.

    By the second part of the program, do you mean week 17 or beyond? What does that entail? Continuing to log and to weigh in? Do you still get coaching support?

    You get some really quick abbreviated lessons and then it's just checking in with the community, where groups go when they finish. The coach posts once per week and you can still talk to them, weigh in, track food, etc

    My husband and I just started a couple weeks ago. We like it, but you’re right, the support groups aren’t very active. We do do/use the lessons, weigh ourselves every morning and are part of the Engage 28 days walking challenge. Would love to find more friends so we can cheer/root and support each other!

    Oh I'm so sorry. I haven't checked this thread in awhile. I'm not accustomed to using the "check my discussions" link, which I will do more often now. Thank you everyone!

    I just applied for this program throughmy insurance. I haven't been formally accepted yet, but am curious about it. Does anyone else have insight/info that they would like to share? i.e. was it worth doing?
