    I'm about halfway to my goal weight; I need to lose another 50 pounds or so, first. I started off obese and in the 200s.

    When I reach my gw, my goal was originally to see how much booze it would take me to get drunk, since I expected that my tolerance would be lower by a large amount. But now I have a 4 month old daughter, so that's not an option anymore. I don't really have a new reward picked out for myself when I reach my gw. Well, aside from shopping for new pants, since my old pants are slowly getting too big. So that's something :)

    This is a neat thread. Now I know my new reward will be to buy new pants when I reach my gw. Thanks OP and others for posting in this thread :D

    I think I'll spring for a photo session with a Jared Platt. He was an photo instructor I had and he takes some amazing images. All the images taken of me in the last 15 or so years have not been pleasing, but one he took in class on the fly was good. Imagine how great I'd look if he was actually trying and I met my goal weight!

    I'm getting my hair chopped off today! Losing all this weight has made my face less round and more oval, so instead of long straight hair elongating my face even more I'm getting it chopped to above my shoulders (I think). I'm so excited!!!

    Hope you will let us see!

    I'm a bit above my goal weight from 'inattention', lol. Just enough to not fit 2/3rds of my clothes. So my 'reward' will be the other 2/3rds of my wardrobe, back into my favorite skinny non-stretch 2's.

    I want new gym clothes but I'm not sure at what point I will reward myself. I think I'll know when I get there. Probably when I drop 25lbs more.

    When I hit my goal I'll buy some new clothes! Definitely new jeans.

    This morning officially hit the goal weight (to be what my 20 year old driver's license says I weigh) but no celebration for another 10 pounds or so.

    Ohmygoodness gracious, I just realized I am almost down to the weight my old driver license said I was, and it was a lie then! :)

    My original goal weight was 180 (I guess I didn't believe I would get smaller in the beginning). I'm now at 186.8, and know I can do better! My new goal is 160. I will celebrate 180 with a filet mignon though

    MFP reminded me that I haven't logged my wieght in 41 days, and that's because I've maintained (been stuck) since then. So I'm getting back to the basics to loose 35 more lbs. I'm going to reward my self for every 10, maybe a new outfit and a treat meal.

    I'm sort of starting over. I'm down 4lb since my after surgery gain 5 weeks ago. I've been doing okay this week (even with christmas) but not fully back to LC just yet. I plan on being back on track 100% on Monday.
    My first goal is 15lbs. I'll splurge on a new book when I get there. At 30 I'm hopeful I'll need new clothes.
