“I was the heaviest I had ever been,” recalls Kaila V. “I was uncomfortable in my own skin to the point I felt claustrophobic.
I have two children and like most moms, you go through weight gain of course, but at a certain point, you have to say ‘this is not healthy. I’m hurting my body and I shouldn’t feel like this at my age.’
I knew I had to do something, and I was determined to make it happen.”
After coming across HealthyWage, Kaila was intrigued. “I thought, if I’m going to [lose weight], I might as well get paid to do it.”
Kaila placed a bet on her weight loss that she would lose 80 pounds in 12 months.
To lose weight, Kaila “did many different things. I’d done Noom in the past and learned a lot that helped me lose weight, so knowing what I learned, benefited me this time with weight loss.”
While her focus was nutrition with calorie counting and ensuring she was in caloric deficit, Kaila “tried to get moving whenever she could.” This included fitness programs such as Insanity and Px90, as well as riding bikes with her kids.
When Kaila’s final weigh-out confirmed she had hit her goal of 80 pounds, she won $8,640!
“I feel way more confident. I don’t feel like I have to hide behind my clothes and things like that. It’s very comforting and freeing really.”

Zanobia J. “was skeptical before giving HealthyWage a try, but it has changed [her] life for the better,” she says. “HealthyWage helped keep me going forward when it got tough.

Find the Motivation You Need
For Kaila, investing in herself was key to weight loss success. “HealthyWage is just a way for you to basically bet on yourself that you’re going to lose weight. You’re betting that you will, and if you do, you win a ton of money in return. I mean, it’s really a win.”
That’s an important key to this challenge. HealthyWage isn’t a diet program or weight loss regimen. While you’ll benefit from joining the community, reading tips and exchanging recipes, the company’s main purpose is facilitating your bet.
You put up the collateral and choose your payout amount. You conduct your weigh-ins. You choose your weight-loss goal and time frame.
“The flexibility of being able to choose how I lose the weight [was] definitely the best part of it because everybody loses weight in different ways.”
After committing to her health and losing 80 pounds, Kaila’s ready to conquer new goals.
“I’ve never felt so determined to do something in my life. Never knew I had so much willpower ever to know that I could lose 80 pounds. I mean that’s so unreal and then it makes me even more positive to get to my ultimate goal that I’ve always wanted to be but never thought I could do it. I think I could really do anything at this point.”
How Does HealthyWager Work?
If you want to get paid to lose weight, here’s how to get started:
1. Start with the HealthyWage Prize Calculator, where you’ll enter how much weight you want to lose (10-150 pounds, minimum 10% of your starting weight), how long you’ll take (6 to 18 months) and how much you want to bet ($35-$200/month).
Based on that information, the calculator will determine your prize amount, up to $10,000. You can play with the calculator until you get the payout and goal just right, and you’ll know your payout amount before officially placing your bet.
2. Sign up and lay down your bet. You agree to pay the monthly amount for the duration of the challenge.
3. Achieve your weight-loss goal, and win your prize!
You’ll start and end your challenge with a video-recorded weigh-in to demonstrate your weight loss. Throughout the challenge, it’s recommended that you use the HealthyWage app to log weekly weigh-ins (these are just self-reported, not verified by video). It’s a great way to keep yourself accountable and on track to meeting your goal!
4. If you don’t hit your goal, your money goes to support HealthyWage, including prizes for others who achieve their goals.
