What are you rewarding yourself when you reach goal?

Sure, reaching your goal is THE ultimate reward but what are you doing special once you reach the coveted prize? I was just thinking about this yesterday, while I was running. I was getting really tired and what kept me going was saying "eye on the prize" over and over. So, it got me thinking, what I should reward myself? Ideas?

    Me and my best friend are going to do a Charity Sky Dive once I reach my goal weight, also maybe get a tattoo of some sort (Undecided yet) to mark my weight loss.

    I would love to do a sky dive now, but due to weight restrictions I can't, so I thought it would be a great thing to do when I have reached my goals. Plus I'll be raising money for charity as well! :)

    Wow, I haven't set a first mini goal, or an over all goal yet! Thanks for bringing this up. I'm gonna think about this today and set some goals and rewards. I know the reward my husband has planned for me is a used Mini Cooper! Talk about incentive...

    Sometimes "eyes on the prize" really what works. I make mini-goals for myself and reward myself every 10lbs. So far, I've gotten an HRM, new shoes, new clothes, and a treadmill. :)

    I want to lose 80 lbs., after i have lost about half that, say at least 30 or 40 lbs. i am going to reward myself with a new Elliptical machine.

    Im going to reward myself with a holiday with all my friends - that's already planned - and feel good about myself, even in a bikini. That has never happened before, and i want to feel good next to all my (skinny) friends!!

    I just reached my first "mini" goal, you could call it, of 175. I hadn't really thought of a reward, though. I know that when I get closer to my end goal I am going to get new clothes. But that's because all of mine are already huge on me, lol, so in another 25 pounds they'll really be falling off!

    I'll have to think about it more... Maybe a new tattoo? Or a vacation would be nice, too!
