Lost: 55 lbs

"It all started in 2020 during quarantine. I gained back all the weight I had lost in previous years.
I was working from home full-time, not able to go to the gym, and my daily movement all but ceased.
My clothes no longer fit and I didn't want to leave the house. I didn't even want to take my kids to the park because I was uncomfortable with myself.
Realizing how my weight was affecting my life (and my kids' lives), I was ready to make a change.
I knew the weight needed to come off, so I joined Noom and then signed up with HealthyWage for extra motivation.
With HealthyWage, you're basically betting on your own success.
I bet myself that I'd lose 50 pounds in 6 months to win $1,478.
It's extra motivation and who doesn't want to win money?
I focused on my eating habits, tracking what I ate and started working out at home.
When my 6-month deadline came up, I was 10 pounds away from my goal.
I refused to give up...especially with money on the line.
HealthyWage gives you the option to extend your challenge bet, so I added another 6 months.
I'd seen progress so I kept doing what worked for me and ended up losing 55 pounds!
When I weighed out, HealthyWage paid me $1,478!"
