Money game to help my mom lose weight?

My moms BMI is at obese right now. She always says she wants to lose weight and I'm scared she is going to get diabetes so I've decided to help her. I was thinking about a money game to help her lose weight.

Example- if she loses 1 pound per week then she doesn't give me anything if she doesn't lose any she gives me $5. But the problem is is that if she gains I want to punish her in some way. But we all know our weight can go up and down. Anyone have any suggestions for this?

Update:

I'm not trying to be greedy. It was the fact that money would be something she wants to keep so she will work hard to keep it. I could care less if I got $5.

    You sound like a spoilt ***** why would she give you $5 when she can't lose weight. And gets no reward for losing weight, all you want is money.
