    My goal currently is to fit into all the clothes I already have! ha! But since I am a girly girl, I would say clothes, jewelry would be great rewards. Maybe a facial or a body massage would be nice too.

    For about every 20 pounds I go up a gauge size for my plugs. I'm at 2g for bottom and 6g for my second hole. At 120 lost I got my septum pierced

    Don't think food is a good reward for me personally. I haven't given it a great deal of thought honestly. I have about 19 lbs to go before I need to decide, plenty of time. Ill be keeping my eyes open for ideas :)

    I have a sticker chart for my son's chores and goals... so I stole that idea for myself and give myself rewards when I get a certain number of stars. I get a star for every time I log 3 lbs of weight loss, and when I have 7 stars I get a new outfit. I get a star for every 30 minute workout, and after 10 I get new songs for my iPod. I get stars for every time I do a stretching routine, when I get 21 stars, I get new yoga pants. When I am at or under my calorie goal for 7 days, I get a cool calorie swap the next week.

    It's silly, but it's motivating me :) And it's nice to see the star stickers showing improvement and progress!

    I like the idea of rewarding myself for goals reached.

    Maybe even better is rewarding myself for taking action every day - so focusing on the "process", not the "outcome" too much, because I can only really change the "process".

    Well, my reward for myself will be buying a sleeveless yellow sundress. I don't know why, but I really want one for the summer! When I lose my weight, I'll feel confident showing my arms again:)

    Long term goal, I have not decided yet. But I have a weekly incentive going on here at home with spouse. For every pound lost weekly, we put $5 in an envelope. IF, and I have NOT yet, gain ANY at all back it is double per pound back from that envelope. I decided since I can do anything I want with my career and life, then damn it I can do this like a paycheck incentive too. So each Sunday morning I get a little paycheck for my week work. What are we going to use the money for in the end, I have no idea yet, but fun to watch the envelope grow!!! Other visual is I put one rock per pound [pretty rocks] in a jar on the table so I have to look at it daily. So Sundays again, I move one rock per pound to the jar that sits on top that envelope. That is what I am doing right now, so far so good!

    When I was almost at my goal I got some nice new clothes. That way if I went up a few pounds I'd still fit in them. :smile:
