Let's treat ourselves, we deserve it.
Choose to treat yourself with an incentive for keeping on track during the week. Whatever you challenge is on a weekly basis; challenge yourself to overcome it and when you do it reward yourself with something that makes you smile.
I challenge myself to log in daily and log all of my foods and snacks. I was really good at this keeping track daily but at some point "fell off" I am really interested in making this a success and logging the food is what is going to help to keep me on track.
If I log in for the whole week and track all that I eat, good and bad. I will treat myself to a Pedicure... which may sound minor but.... I rarely go to the salon with out having to take the kids so the incentive is A Pedicure, KID FREE!!

I honestly don't reward myself. If my pants are looser or I see a difference I feel good about myself. There isn't anything I would reward myself with anyway except food and that is a cycle I want to break.0

Nothing is better than knowing yourself and what is best for you! I hear you on the rewarding myself with food quote... I totally agree, that would defeat the purpose.
Yes, it feels great for the pants to fit looser...it is the best feeling ever.0
