Money is the key for easier weight loss, according to U.S. researchers.
They said weight-loss programs that reward people with money provide a strong incentive to lose weight.
Dr. Kevin Volpp of the University of Pennsylvania School of Medicine said that many weight-loss programs are unsuccessful because people must make sacrifices now for rewards in the future.
He claims that people need rewards in the present.
During a study, Volpp discovered that people who received money incentive lost far more weight than those who got no pay for their efforts.
The study appears in the Journal of the American Medical Association.
