Put Your Money Where Your Girth Is

There was a story on NPR this morning that I found relevant to our weight-loss efforts. A law professor who was tired of constantly re-gaining weight he had lost hired a student to nag him (so his wife wouldn't have to). He also starting betting money on his weight loss and has now developed a website for tying money and contracts to personal goals. It's stickK.com ("stick" as in "stick to it" and an extra K probably for the customary law school abbreviation for "contract").
