Hi all

I had made a 15lb loss goal for myself about 2 weeks ago - a haircut! (it had been a while .... 8 months in fact!) I completed that goal (I hit 16.5lbs loss on the goal date, ACTUALLY!!!! :D ) but now I'm thinking I need MORE goals.

My next "milestone" will be 25lbs loss then hope to do 35lbs then 45lbs then 55lbs.. you get the idea.

I don't want to spend TOO much money but I want it to be a good goal! The haircut came to about $40 something w tip (hey don't judge - my hair is very important to me and I go to a nice salon... my fiance thinks its outrageous since he shaves his own head haha)

I'm at 20.5lbs lost so I'll hopefully be at the 25lb mark in no time.. but I really need some kind of motivational goal again!

Any and all ideas are welcome, I'm open to lots of (inexpensive!) things :) I was thinking tanning (spray or regular booth), a trip to the Philly zoo with my fiance, new work shoes.... etc. I'm not looking to go clothes shopping until I hit my GW or at the end of summer (when I start student teaching and need new "teacher" clothes!) Just looking for ideas and things other that people made goals for themselves :)

PS. I do NOT get manicures or pedicures ladies! I don't like people touching my feet so I just paint my own cute toes and fingers!)

Thanks!!!!

    I've a few things that I am doing to help keep me on track... I put a white board on my refrigerator where I keep track of whether I counted my calories that day and if I made my goal (1 pt. each). There are several other "chores" that get me points too, like putting my laundry away instead of leaving it folded on top of the dryer. I've assigned a reward of 2 pts. / $. I'm saving up for a spa visit.

    Other rewards: a new book, a new audio book, do local tourist-type things (which you mentioned),
