Getting Started with Nümi
Hello and welcome! We’re so happy you’re here. Think of Nümi as your friendly companion on your wellness journey—we’re here to help make tracking your progress feel easy and even a little bit fun!
What is Nümi?
Nümi is like having a helpful friend who gently reminds you to check in with yourself each week. Instead of making weight tracking feel like a chore, we’ve made it feel more like a game—with little achievements and encouraging messages along the way.
Whether you’re taking medications like Ozempic, Wegovy, Mounjaro, or Zepbound, or simply wanting to keep track of your wellness journey, Nümi is here to support you. We help you track not just your weight, but also how you’re feeling—because your whole well-being matters!
Creating Your Account
Don’t worry—this is the easy part! Here’s how to get started:
- Visit our homepage and look for the “Get Started” or “Sign Up” button. It’s usually right at the top of the page, so you can’t miss it!
- Click that button and we’ll ask you to create an account. You can use your email address, or if you prefer, you can sign in with your Google or Apple account—whatever feels easiest to you.
- Fill in a few details and you’re all set! We promise it only takes a minute or two.
Setting Up Your Profile
Once you’ve created your account, we’ll help you set up your profile. Think of this as telling us a little bit about yourself so we can help you better:
- Go to your settings—you’ll find a little gear icon or “Settings” button somewhere on your dashboard. Don’t worry if you can’t find it right away; it’s usually in the top right corner or in a menu.
- Tell us about yourself—we’ll ask for things like your name, age, and height. Don’t worry, you can always come back and change these later if you need to.
- Choose your units—do you prefer pounds and inches, or kilograms and centimeters? Pick whatever feels most comfortable to you. We’ll remember your choice!
- Set your preferences—you can choose when you’d like to receive friendly reminders from us, and you can control your privacy settings too. Everything is in your control.
Creating Your First Journey
This is the exciting part! A “journey” in Nümi is like creating your own personal wellness story. Here’s how to create one:
- Look for “Create New Journey”—you’ll see this button on your dashboard (that’s the main page you see when you log in). It might be a big colorful button, or it might be in a menu—either way, it’s easy to find!
- Give it a name—this is your journey, so make it personal! Maybe something like “My Summer Wellness” or “Getting Healthier in 2024”—whatever feels right to you.
- Tell us about your medications—if you’re taking any medications like Ozempic, Wegovy, Mounjaro, or Zepbound, you can let us know. This helps us give you better support. Don’t worry if you’re not taking any medications—that’s perfectly fine too!
- Set your goals—we’ll ask for your current weight and your target weight (where you’d like to be). Remember, there’s no pressure here—pick a goal that feels achievable and healthy for you.
- Pick a start date—when would you like to begin? You can start today, or pick a date in the future if you prefer.
- Save and you’re done! Just click “Save” and your journey begins. We’ll be here cheering you on!

Understanding Your Journey
Think of your journey like a friendly game where each week is a new level. Here’s how it works:
Weekly Levels
Each week, you’ll complete a “level” by checking in:
- Unlock the Next Level—each week you check in, you unlock the next week. It’s like leveling up in a game!
- Track Your Progress—we’ll help you see how you’re doing each week compared to your goals
- Update Your Medications—if your medication or dosage changes, you can note that when you check in. If you’re using injectable medications, you can also update your injection site.
- How Are You Feeling?—each week, we’ll ask how you’re feeling. This isn’t just about weight—your whole well-being matters!
- Note Any Side Effects—if you’re taking medications and experience any side effects, you can easily log them. You can even note what time of day they happened—this helps you and your doctor see patterns
- Track Injection Sites—if you’re using injectable medications, you can track which injection site you used. Rotating sites helps prevent skin irritation and ensures consistent medication absorption
A Little Bit of Fun
We’ve made tracking feel a bit like a game to keep things light and encouraging: - Achievements—when you hit milestones, we’ll celebrate with you! You might earn little badges or recognition - See Your Progress—we’ll show you your journey in a visual way, so you can see how far you’ve come - Encouragement—we’ll send you friendly messages and reminders to keep you motivated
Logging Your Progress
When it’s time for your weekly check-in, don’t worry—we’ve made it super simple! You’ll see three tabs at the top, and you can click through them one by one. Let’s walk through each one:
The Weight Tab
This is where you enter your current weight:
- Just type in your weight—we’ll remember whether you prefer pounds or kilograms
- See the change instantly—as soon as you enter it, we’ll show you how much you’ve changed since last week
- No math needed—we do all the calculations for you!
The Mood Tab
Here’s where you tell us how you’re feeling:
- Pick a mood—we have options like “Great,” “Good,” “Okay,” “Not Great,” or “Struggling.” Pick whatever feels right!
- Add notes if you want—you can write a little note about your week, or you can skip this part. It’s totally up to you!
- Remember, it’s not just about weight—how you’re feeling emotionally is just as important as the number on the scale
The Side Effects Tab
If you’re taking medications, this tab helps you track how they’re making you feel:
- Check any boxes that apply—we’ve listed the most common side effects:
- Nausea
- Vomiting
- Diarrhea
- Constipation
- Abdominal pain
- Headache
- Fatigue
- Dizziness
- Other (you can write in your own if needed)
- Note what time of day—you can tell us if something happened in the morning, during the day, or at night. This helps you and your doctor see patterns!
- Help your doctor help you—when you visit your healthcare provider, you can print out a report that shows all of this information, making it easier for them to adjust your treatment if needed
Don’t worry if you don’t have any side effects to report—that’s great! You can just skip this tab. All of this information gets saved together, so when you’re ready to share your progress with your doctor, everything is in one place.
Tracking Injection Sites
If you’re taking injectable medications like Ozempic, Wegovy, Mounjaro, or Zepbound, you can track where you inject your medication each week. This is helpful because rotating injection sites can help reduce skin irritation and ensure consistent medication absorption.
Available injection sites:
When you update your medication information, you’ll be asked to select your injection site:
- Stomach (abdomen)—a common injection site, typically 2 inches away from your belly button
- Thigh—the front of your thigh, in the upper portion
- Back of upper arm—the back of your upper arm (you may need help with this site)
Why track injection sites?
- Rotate sites—rotating between different injection sites helps prevent skin irritation and bruising
- Consistent absorption—some people notice slight differences in how medications work depending on the injection site
- Share with your doctor—your healthcare provider can see patterns in your injection site rotation and any related side effects
Tip: Many healthcare providers recommend rotating injection sites each week. For example, you might use your stomach one week, your thigh the next, and your arm the week after. Nümi helps you keep track of this rotation automatically!
Tips for Success
Here are some friendly tips to help you get the most out of Nümi:
Check in regularly—try to log your weight at least once a week. It doesn’t have to be the exact same day every week, but consistency helps you see your progress better.
Be honest with yourself—enter your real weight and how you’re really feeling. This isn’t about judgment—it’s about understanding your journey. We’re here to support you, not to judge!
Don’t forget the side effects tab—if you’re taking medications, tracking side effects helps both you and your doctor. Even if you think something is “not a big deal,” it’s worth noting. Your doctor will appreciate having this information.
Notice patterns—if you’re tracking side effects, pay attention to when they happen. Do they tend to happen in the morning? After meals? This information can be really helpful for your doctor.
Track your injection sites—if you’re using injectable medications, rotate your injection sites each week. This helps prevent skin irritation and ensures consistent medication absorption. Nümi makes it easy to track which site you used each week.
Set goals that feel right—pick a target weight that feels achievable and healthy for you. There’s no rush! Slow and steady progress is still progress.
Use the notes section—if something is working really well for you, write it down! If something isn’t working, note that too. These little notes can help you remember what helps and what doesn’t.
Share with your doctor—when you visit your healthcare provider, print out your wellness report. It shows everything you’ve tracked in one place, making it easier for them to help you.
Remember: this is your journey, and you’re doing great just by showing up! Every small step counts.
