“I was 100 pounds overweight” recalls Julie B., “and I knew if I wanted to do this, I had to make some serious changes.”
An avid traveler, Julie was prompted with a challenge when her brothers suggested the idea of traveling to Japan and climbing Mt. Fuji. “I’ve always enjoyed hiking but this pushed me to go outside my comfort zone.”
While she always considered herself active, Julie knew that her weight would affect her ability to safely tackle Mt. Fuji. In preparation, she started tracking her calorie intake on the Lose It! app and signed up for HealthyWage where she invested in her weight loss.
Julie bet $150 for six months that she would lose 60 pounds.
When her final weigh-in confirmed she had achieved her goal, Julie won $2,994!
“I now weigh less than I did in high school!”
Get Paid to Lose Weight — Seriously
Check out these other recent HealthyWager success stories:
It sounds too good to be true, we know. But after talking with these HealthyWager winners, it’s confirmed that if you stick to your goal and lose the weight you say you’re going to, HealthyWage pays you. It’s as simple as that.
Brian Y. won $1,975 for losing 120 pounds in twelve months, and used his HealthyWage winnings towards a trip to Italy with his wife!
Ashlee P. signed up for HealthyWage to help prepare for and fund her upcoming trip to Europe. She lost 80 pounds in twelve months and won $3,741!
Find the Motivation You Need
For Ben R., it was about getting healthy for his family and being able to actively participate in their lives. “I volunteer with our local youth group and found out that we’d be hiking to Utah’s highest peak this summer, and that was just the catalyst I needed. I want to be a hiker that can help carry a struggling hiker’s pack, rather than the opposite.”
Ben set a goal to lose 60 pounds. He surpassed his goal, losing 61 pounds, and won $1,990!
“I’ve been exceptionally active; more active than any time in the past 10-15 years! I go for walks and hikes, play disc golf, play pickle ball, work in the yard for hours, and many, many other things that I used to only do occasionally.”
Putting cold hard cash on the line was the accountability Ben needed to lose weight and get healthy.
“Sticking to my nutrition plan, getting tons of activity, and prioritizing sleep have literally saved my life! My [last] blood work saw EVERY SINGLE category shift from unhealthy and near-unhealthy numbers to dramatically healthier levels.“
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.
For Ben, not only is he healthier, but he’s now able to participate in activities with his family instead of watching from the sidelines (like ziplining in Hawaii!).
“I am a different man, a more loving, present, and active husband and father, and a happier person as a result of these changes.”
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 ($20-$150/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.
