A financial incentive to lose weight is also a financial incentive to qualify for the incentive program. If it becomes a policy instead of a one-off study, and you could qualify by gaining a few pounds, you can justify your next binge as a duty to your family.
As a champion binge-justifier I can testify that this is an easy one. Advanced justifiers can do it from just a palindrome in the current date, in the Babylonian calendar.
- BoorishBears 4y agoAs a person who lost 100 lbs this year, I can testify if you do this you deserve the money.
- hirundo 4y agoCongratulations. I've been there, and I'd rather have the weight loss than a million dollars. A billion dollars wouldn't be an easy choice.
- eyelidlessness 4y agoAs someone who struggled with weight for decades, and finally has it under control, I cannot relate to your logic at all. I’ll take my stable weight and skip the cash incentives thanks. Granted I also don’t need the cash so acutely. I hope incentives like this will help others though.
