NEW YORK, NY--(Marketwire - January 6, 2009) - WeightView, the digital weight loss tool that enables dieters to see a visual representation of themselves at their desired weight, is now the most active weight loss application on Facebook® (http://apps.facebook.com/weightview). WeightView's popularity earned it a coveted spot on ABC News' "Good Morning America's" "Hot Trend for 2009" segment, on December 27, 2008.

The early success of the WeightView application is attributed to its effectiveness as a visual motivational tool. Through this social networking application, users are also able to find real advantage in reaching their weight loss goals through support and encouragement from WeightView's Facebook® community.

"The application is built on two proven techniques to help people achieve weight loss -- visual motivation and peer support," says WeightView co-founder Dr. Doron Katz MD. "By simply uploading a picture of themselves, users can visually see what they might look like at their target weight and connect with others trying to achieve similar success. This type of positive reinforcement can make a big difference for people trying to make a positive change in their lives."

WeightView's digital photo enhancement process allows individuals to see what they could potentially look like, up to 50 pounds slimmer. Individuals simply upload a full body photo of themselves and indicate their desired weight loss goal. Within 48 hours, WeightView will return a digitally customized photo at their goal weight -- completely free of charge. In addition, the application also provides the ability to maintain a journal, track progress, connect with users and discuss related weight loss topics with the WeightView community and featured health experts.
