there are TONS of ways to earn things while you lose weight
I'll name the ones I'm using and if you know of anymore let me know
Earndit
http://earnd.it/1h1NU2e (that is my referral link if you do not want to use that just google Earndit.com
at earndit I simply link my fitbit tracker to the site and I earn points
that give me discounts on various things mostly to do with healthy living .
I'm eyeing up a very supportive sports bra
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Everymove.org
another connect your device and earn points toward stuff site
however this one you can also add in things you have done like
shoveling snow
cleaning the house
calisthenics
I use Everymove.org points and donate them to charity
last time I checked they had 2 charity options for points donation
the one I chose is the Make a Wish Foundation
for every 2000 points I earn $5 gets donated
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Walgreens
also has a way to earn points for things you already do and you can connect several of the high tech pedometers to the site the points can be used toward purchases
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Diet Bet
now this is a neat idea ! it is a website where you and a group of friends can bet each other if you meet your goal(there are different ones) you get part of the pot of money. What if you do not have a group of friends that want to diet? they have groups that you can join with larger pots of money and other prizes. I joined a group of twitter friends and was able to split the pot with the winners it was loads of fun and good kick in the tush to get moving more.

Pact
I love this one I connected my fitbit to the site so long as I have 30 active minutes per day and reach a minimum of 10,000 steps a day THEN I have made one of my Pacts
I can hear you "SO WHAT?"
Let me back up a wee bit because I got excited and got ahead of myself
Pact is a site that pays you for doing things you are already doing
WHAT?
yes
I made a Pact saying that I would log my food for for 5 days out of 7
I made another Pact that I would exercise for 5 days out of 7
I said IF I do not make my daily Pact I will pay $5 per day I miss
Because I made 2 Pacts that would be $10 a day
NOW guess what happens if I MAKE my pact?
I get paid for it
Since I already log daily at My Fitness Pal
I already walk over 10,000 steps on my fitbit daily
guess what?
I make money this is so cool
LOVE that site
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
I'm sure there are more sites out there these are the ones I use
make sure you check them out if you need another incentive for this trip
