When you hit goal...

What is the one (somewhat silly) thing you’re going to allow yourself to do when you make it to your goal?
Or what’s the reward you’ve promised yourself for that end point?
I’m going to wear a crop top in public (silly, I know, but definitely a mark of feeling comfortable in my skin).

i would tell you to just wear it now - seriously. be your own reward2

Just being able to wear the other 90% of my (rather large) wardrobe again will be celebration enough. I do not own a very 'forgiving' wardrobe. Not a lot of stretchy jeans and loose flowing tops, lol.2

When I hit my goal weight, I'm going to lose one additional pound, and then eat 3500 calories worth of Cap'n Crunch.26

I went on a shopping spree.... it is hard to not buy clothes when you aren't ashamed of your body anymore and everything looks great. Fortunately H&m is an hour away so I only go there a couple times a year. However TJmaxx is right down the road.1

Not sure I already have some clothes for then....perhaps a gym membership?1

I want to try Stitch Fix!4

When I hit goal I get to gain weight again (on purpose)! Yay.

I'm going to buy a dress or three from eShakti, and go get a slice of my favorite jumbo slice pizza.2

I want to lose 6 more lbs but I went ahead & bought a bunch of summer shorts & tops saturday that fit me just right, I figure another 6 lbs won't put me in another size category & I NEEDED some, non of mine fit from last summer & I've been buying used clothes since then2

Well, I just bought a bikini that should look okay once I lose the last 6-7 lbs. It fits but I'm not sure I like how it makes my love handles look. I needed a smaller bathing suit... my current one falls off when doing laps, and none of the one pieces were even remotely sensible.2

I love TYR swimwear. I used to work at a pool and they had great high waisted bikinis and crop workout tops that lasted a loooong time in the chlorine. take a look here: https://swimoutlet.com/p/tyr-womens-arvada-riva-classic-bikini-bottom-8165896/?rec=top_primary+brand0 -
I'm wanting to go get a cute haircut for the summer if I make it to 135. If I make it to 120, My reward will be the sense of satisfaction actually meeting the goal. Bonus Points is I have to shop for smaller clothes. I want to start recomp once I reach around my end goal weight.2

I got a massage and went shopping!3

I'm going to go clothes shopping - mostly for work clothes. I have some I can barely fit into that will fit nicely, but they're old, so I want to get some new ones that look good and fit my new roles better. I have a few dresses I may start to sport as well that I currently cannot zip up.
Oh, and the BIG one? That will be wearing a sexy, low back, slinky dress to my racing annual awards banquet - that's the one I REALLY want!1 -
I just bought a pair of jeans that will fit once I hit my goal. I can't wait to wear them!0

My reward is getting to eat at surplus2

I wanted to answer this but I can't actually remember what I wanted to do for my goal and if I did it or not. I had mini goals where I did things like 'start a new exercise', get a new piercing - I only kept my second and third holes.
I do, however, remember at the start wanting to wear a pair of Nike leggings in a size small. And I do, but nothing prepares you for the tall girl camel toe.

That was the best part of my shopping spree was that I had to toss/donate all my shorts I had been wearing because they would just fall off me now. The only pair that fit I've had for 10+ years and are a very faded black.
Unfortunately the cute swim tops I have purchased in the past years also have to go because you can't pick where you lose weight. I wish I could wear one pieces but I need an extra long that is XS/S in the top and on the bigger side of M at the bottom.0 -
Since work provides uniform, I have a very limited personal wardrobe so shopping for clothes that aren’t hand me down will be the best reward. I also want a very sexy photo shoot with my motorcycle.3

My reward for hitting goal with be to stop obsessing over the sodium content in every single bite of food.
This process has really opened my eyes to how much sodium I consumed on a regular basis. And subsequently, how bloated I felt all the time. I will still keep my eye on it, but to not have to obsess about it for weigh-ins will be such a relief!5 -
I would like to see how long I can maintain it for this time!!

I like this photo shoot idea.1

I need to shop for fall/winter clothes. Everything I had last year fit my just-gave-birth large body. I squeaked by in the summer with two pair of shorts and some athletic capris and $5 tshirts from Target.
I am a bit at a loss, I haven't been this small since I got married, maybe our first year of marriage. I was about 3lbs lighter. But not since before I was pregnant with my first (of 3) children.
I need to dress better. I think I deserve it, all this hard work. I anticipate hitting my goal by labor day, or shortly after. Perfect time to start adding in fall/winter clothes.
I'd also like to reward myself for maintaining, like regular massages or manicures. Maybe if we can afford it.5 -
I'm 4% body fat from my goal. I'm thinking that'll be about 10lbs from now.
When I reach goal, I'm buying a screen printing setup. I used to do screen printing in school and I've always said I'd do it again, but the startup investment made me hesitant.
When I began this journey, over a year ago, I promised myself that when I reach goal, I had permission to do it.
And then too, I can make all those cute workout T-shirts by myself!2
