Personalizing Financial Incentives for Weight Loss

This study is looking into how well personalized financial incentives work to help people in a weight-loss program. The main goal is to see if it's possible to give you incentives (like small payments) that are specifically tailored to you, based on your weight loss and how often you track your food. You might be able to join if you are at least 18 years old, have obesity (a BMI of 30 kg/m2 or higher), and can attend virtual group classes and review study materials. The researchers will know the study is successful if they can enroll enough people and keep them in the study for 25 weeks. The current status of this study is unclear.
