REWARDS!

MABMomma

I was curious about the rewards you give yourself for losing weight. How often (or how many pounds) are you rewarding yourself? What has the reward been?

I'm SO close to my first one! I've chosen new workout gear.

I can only lose about 25lb until I'm at my GW/most fit (aside from gaining muscle after slimming of course). I love weight loss rewards. Here's some I've used/seen others use

jewelry
new handbag/wallet
new nail polish
new journal/gel pens
single serve blender for smoothies/protein shakes
new tupperware/food storage for food prep
new high end makeup
new shoes (whether work out related or not)
fitbit or other fitness watch
new haircut/color job
new tattoo
new outfits
spa day (frugal tip: DIY at home spa days are amazing)
spend a little more on a fanicer outfit/belt/name brand something
$x.xx shopping spree (mini or complete new wardrobe)
date night (bring your own snacks to the movies)
photoshoot ie boudoir, couples photos, new family pictures
new fitness DVD/equipment like yoga mat, kettle bells, walking weights, etc

Workout clothes and shoes, heart rate monitor, smaller workout items like a yoga mat and a more cushioned mat, cheap adjustable dumbells, kettle bells, hand weightsn for when I do marching in front of the tv, nice protein mixer cups and good water bottles, hiking equipment....I'm basically stocking up on things I find makes it easier on me.

I have a lot of what I need so now I also get sewing items, latest books I've been wanting, short day trip to somewhere I can't always go - I'm 90 minutes from beach, massage, etc other affordable things I might not normally do regularly for myself. I gave all to my kids for a long time and now it's about me . They are grown.

Forgot to say I don't do it at exact intervals as far as 10 or 20 lbs lost but I do it just from time to time when I am doing well. I give myself a high five every 10 lbs lol.

I don't really have anything I need or want so I don't really do rewards. I am looking forward to the clothes shopping I'll get to do when I reach my goal weight though.
