How would you like it if you would get payed for loosing weight at work? Would you loose weight or just blow it off? Would you even care? The work places provide gyms and a healthy cafeteria. The employers saw a drop in sick days and workers compenstation.

Getting paid for loosing weight? that would make people at least try to loose weight because they get something in return besides the weight lose. i would be coolif we got paid for loosing weight!
I think this is a great way to motiviate people to be healthy, and at the same time make some money. At the same tim your company has less sick days. I wuld definatly loose weight to get money. It aslo depends on how much they get paid. If they pay a good amout im defenatly in.
I think that more people would try to loose weight if they got paid for it. I think it's good that companies are trying to get people to loose weight since there are a lot of obese people in America.
If someone would pay you to loose weight i dont know who wouldnt do it! unless you are extremly lazy.. and don't need the money. We have alot of overweight people in America, and maybe this will motivate people. The only thing is that when they loose all that weight.. most people gain it all backk :(
Loosing weight to get paid? It seems an awful lot like getting pregnant to be on TV. It is a good thing, it does encourage people, indeed, but it does give false hope that the company will always do it..but I think I'm wrong.
I think it would definately motivate people. Obesity is a major problem in our society today, and we need to find a solution for it. I think it would be pretty cool if you got paid for loosing weight!
My dad's company had a little compation like the biggest loser. I don't think they got paid for the pounds the workers lost though. I do know this, the winner recieved a little prize money. I think that premoting wieght loss in a company is a good idea. Some companies will pay part of a gym membership. I think that shows that they care for their people's health in the company. It is an alright deal I guess.
