My name is Robin van Roon, I was born in November 1987 and I am the founder of RopinHealth. For years, I actually had little trouble with my weight. Until there came a point in my life when the kilos slowly but surely started to pile on. Like so many people, I tried various ways to lose weight, but I soon discovered that a healthy lifestyle is about much more than just eating less. It’s about knowledge, motivation, structure and, above all, perseverance. When my wife and I received the wonderful news that we were expecting a baby, I knew one thing for certain: I wanted to become the healthiest version of myself. Not just for myself, but for my family too. That was the moment I decided to truly change my life. I followed a GLI programme and then an intensive eight-month coaching programme. Although I achieved great results, I also realised that good guidance and the right tools can be quite expensive. Not everyone can or wants to spend hundreds of euros a year on an app, coaching or meal plans. Then I thought: what if I built this myself? Drawing on my experience as a web developer, the idea for RopinHealth was born. A platform that makes health accessible to everyone. A place where people can track their diet, exercise, weight and progress without incurring high costs straight away. In 2026, I decided to build RopinHealth entirely from scratch. Together with fifteen enthusiastic beta testers, we spent months testing everything thoroughly. Thanks to their honest feedback, ideas and experiences, we’ve continued to improve the platform. Every feature has been developed with a single goal in mind: to create a user-friendly environment that genuinely helps people lead a healthier lifestyle.

At RopinHealth, we believe that health should be accessible to everyone. That is why a large part of the platform is available completely free of charge. Everyone should have the opportunity to work towards a healthier future, regardless of their budget. In future, additional Premium features will also become available. Not because health should be a luxury, but because the development, maintenance and expansion of RopinHealth require time, expertise and funding. These Premium features are carefully developed and remain affordable, so that they are accessible to as many people as possible. Would you like to give RopinHealth some extra support? If so, you can make a voluntary donation. Every contribution helps us to develop new features, further improve the website and keep the platform accessible to everyone. What’s more, RopinHealth isn’t growing on its own. Behind the scenes, more and more enthusiastic people are joining us to help develop the platform. At the moment, they’re doing this on a voluntary basis. Thanks to future donations and Premium revenue, we hope to be able to give something back to them in return for their efforts. Our mission Our mission is simple: To give everyone the opportunity to live a healthier life, without money being a barrier. We understand how difficult it can be to lose weight, eat more healthily or stick to a new lifestyle. That’s why, step by step, we’re building a platform that motivates, supports and grows with you. RopinHealth was born out of personal experience and is developed further every day with one goal in mind: Working together towards a healthier, fitter and happier life.

If you’re reading this, there’s one thing in particular I want to share with you. You don’t have to be perfect to get started. I’m not perfect myself. I, too, have had days when things didn’t go to plan, when motivation was hard to find, and when it felt like I was taking a step backwards. That’s all part of the process. That’s why RopinHealth isn’t a platform that tells you what you’re doing wrong. It’s a platform that helps you move forward step by step, in a way that suits you. I hope that RopinHealth can help you just as much as it has helped me on my own journey towards a healthier lifestyle. Thank you for being part of our community. Robin van Roon Founder of RopinHealth
