My Fiances Incentive for me Losing Weight

So we have already set our wedding date and put our down payment down for the ceremony/reception. We still have to pick out our rings, and he still needs to do the "actual" proposal
We have always talked about getting married and the place we wanted to get married was filling up rather quickly so we reserved a date without actually being engaged, I know its kinda backwards but we knew we wanted to get married in the fall time of this year...
My fiance does not like jewelry at all...He has a hard time saving money so he said how about we do this(since I need some kind of motivation too) He said for every lb I lose he will put $50 away in an account and not touch it, it will be towards my engagement ring...I already know eventually I am going to get a ring but I think this is the motivation we both need
What do you guys think about it?

If it works for you, that's great.
For me? It seems kind of condescending and like your fiance is taking on a parental role.
And also kind of like what you weigh dictates what you're worth to him.0
