The comparison is between the:
- Outcome-based group ($50-100 a month if they lose ≥1.5% to <2.5% of baseline weight or $100-150 a month if they lose ≥2.5% of baseline weight) + all the control group stuff.
- Control group: fitbit, food diary, referral to weight watchers etc.
The outcome measure: Percentage of patients who achieve 5% reduction from Baseline Weight at 6 months. If the confidence intervals don't include 0, it resolves to yes.
