I have come up with a great idea to mix what I love to do (shopping) with weight loss! I will reward myself $10 towards a new wardrobe when I reach my goal weight! I think everyone should try this it really motivates me! Just multiply the weight you've lost by 10 to get your total! EX. 8.6lbs lost x $10= $86!

    I've been buying some new stuff as I go and YEAH, it's a great motivator. So is fitting back into some of my old faves. I just bought a bunch of new clothes on holiday right before I started losing weight though and it's sad to see them not fitting very well though. I think I'm going to take some to a tailor and get them taken in - they're very trendy and cute and brand spanky new so I hate to see them go to waste.

    Wooo 630.00!!!! Lol, by the time Im done I'll have over 800.00, although a good bit of that is going to be going towards a new wardrobe ;) . As far as the full 800.00 prolly not gonna happen, but good idea. Anyone want to fund me? LOL JK

    Maybe put a little bit into a piggy bank each time you lose a pound. Then, when you reach your goal, you'll have a big pile of money to get yourself a new wardrobe!

    I'm going to slide this into the savings account that is attached to my checking. Since I'm not sure how much I've lost so far, I'll just use my MFP losses. Thanks for the GREAT idea. :)

    That's exactly what I'm doing! With every pound I lose, I'm putting $10 away for new clothes. I'll have $700 when I reach my final goal weight!
