If anyone is wondering about Healthywage and if it's a scam, it's not. It helped motivate me to lose weight abot 4 years ago. I lost 60 lbs. in 8 months. and was paid $1200.
I 'bet' $65/mo that I would lose the weight, so the total I paid was $520 over 8 months. After I reached my goal and had my weight verified, they sent me a check for $1720 (the $520 I paid + $1200). So, if you hate to lose money, and like to win, it really helps. You can bet any amount, and the prize depends on several factors. Use thier calculator here:

Unfortunately I gained it all back. Wish I had used MFP with Healthywage.

    Dear Posters,

    I wanted to offer a brief explanation for the locking of this thread.

    The forum guidelines include this item:

    14. No Advertising, Self-Promotion, or Fund-Raising
    a) You may not post any links or mentions of other services, websites, or businesses from which you or an associate might benefit financially or otherwise. This includes, but is not limited to; posts that contain links to offsite blog posts and social media. You also may not solicit off-Forum contact from which you might benefit, e.g. "message me for more info", “I can get you free samples”, etc.
    b) Requests or solicitations for donations are also not allowed. This includes requesting contributions to “pooled fund” competitions, requests for votes in any venue (online contests, etc.), and even requests for charitable contributions. As you can imagine, we have a lot of people who would like to raise money for worthy causes through the site. As much as we'd like to support these causes, if we were to allow requests for donations, the forums would quickly become full of such requests which would take away from the main purpose of the forums - to support one another.
    c) Posts or messages to members promoting websites that compete with MyFitnessPal are also prohibited.

    If you would like to review the forum guidelines, please visit the following link:

    At our discretion, this locked thread may be deleted entirely in the near future.

    With respect,
