Official Info

Welcome! You’ve arrived at Bitch Yourself Thin, the place where we cheer each other on as we try to drop some of the pooch. Our proposition: Dieting sucks, but getting to bitch about it is fun. BYT is where we’ll cheer you on while you’re trying to drop a few pounds, but slap you in a loving and life-affirming way when you step out of line. We’re about accountability, community, and humor. Joining in is easy: Just step on the scale, bitch, report, repeat.

We’re looking for fellow travelers on the journey through Midlife Muffin Top Madness. Are you our ideal Bitch Sister or Bitch Brother? You fit the bill if:

• You know that eating less and exercising more are the key to healthful weight loss, but you click on that “Lose belly fat fast!” web ad faster than Usain Bolt.
• You’re smart enough not to sign up for instant delivery of $80/month’s worth of Secret Scarab Poop supplements, but still dream of that magical Silver Bullet that will let you pull on your fresh-from-the-dryer jeans without lying on your back and inhaling.
• You only read People Magazine at the dentist. You look forward to going to the dentist.
• You watch The Biggest Loser while sipping a glass of wine.
• You are on a first-name basis with the nutrition information on SnackWells, Finn Crisps, and any product that boasts “zero net carbs”.
• You’re fun at cocktail parties; you just wish you could rock your LBD more Shania Twain, less Stevie Nicks.
• You know how to lose weight—good God, you’re not an idiot!—you just need a little support in actually accomplishing lasting weight loss.

That’s where we come in. Come bitch with us and let us hold your hand through the electronic ectoplasm. Check out Who We Are and the Rules O’ The Game and let’s get started!
