    Am I really the only one who finds this creepy?

    Ummmm. No.

    I was wondering if he got tired of paying her to have sex, and that hes moved on to something else?

    So uhhhhhh. If you hit a plateau, then what happens? Sorry, cant touch you, you need to lose more weight? WTF?



    This thread right here is why people need to lose weight for themselves, not other people or things.

    It's a good thing he's not offering you money for sexual favors!


    This is absurd, and kinda sad. I'm sorry, but if my husband tried to pay me to lose weight, I'd throw him out on his butt so fast.

    Nope.

    Anyone without a generous spouse who wants to earn money sticking to their goals (and pay up if they miss them!) should try the Gym Pact app. I was too scared to sign up personally!

    Why is it creepy? It's between her and her husband and she's motivated by it. Whatever works.

    Pffft. Like that's a huge sacrifice for him.

    Not enough data to determine.

    Nope. I'm kinda sitting here thinking what the heck, too. Her husband is paying her? Isn't money between spouses mutual anyway? I guess I'm just reading into something the wrong way because I watch too much TV.

    Too each their own, who am I to judge?

    Good luck.

    Not to be an internet jerk, but I find it a little creepy, too. Not so much about having a monetary incentive to lose weight, but more so the idea of a spouse "paying" the other--as if the money is all his? Shouldn't it be, like, shared? Or if you both keep your finances separate, shouldn't you have your own money in the first place? Just seems like a weird power dynamic to gift each other money when you're married.

    (I might just be in an online snarky mood, though. Apologies.)

    I offered that to my wife as well. Since the offer she hasn't left the couch.

    paying me to lose weight would most likely backfire, as I can't be pushed or even suggested to me - I'm very stubborn that way. But I have a hard time taking compliments too.

    but we are talking about booking a vacation and I suggested we wait until I'm nearer to my goal weight… It's my own incentive. He was frustrated I wanted to wait but I want to feel/look good if we go on a big trip together. Now he sees some weight coming off, I think he's feeling like it might happen.

    I think it's... odd. I don't know though, different strokes for different folks. I wouldn't want to do this.
