rewarding myself

I decided to reward myself once I 'd lost "x" amount. I immediately thought of chocolate. Then thought I'd have to loose the chocolate gain. How much better I feel on deciding on going for a back massage.

    So do I, but using it as a reward is not a great idea :-) back massage sounds cool though!

    Yeah, massage does sound good... but I just don't do 'rewards' ... if I want something I get it (as long as it's possible of course :D )

    If you're really interested in getting massages as rewards i recommend downloading the groupon and lifebooker apps so you can get discounts on spas in your area

    Massages trump everything!! :)
    I tend to go with clothing as rewards cause I just like shopping

    I try not to reward myself with food because it leads to a downward spiral. So I treat myself to pedicures instead.

    Back massages can get pricey! Maybe do a progressive reward system: 5lbs nails, 10lbs clothes, 15lbs massage, 20lbs travel ;)
