Ideas for non-food rewards for losing weight?

Healthy_Hannah483

I've decided to implement a reward system for myself for losing weight, I have a few ideas, but I'd like to see what you guys can think of! Does anyone else do a reward system? If so, has it worked?
Some of my ideas:
- curling iron
- makeup
- purse
- teeth whitening
- perfume
- massage
- clothes (the last one, of course)

I'm also a big fan of the mani-pedi, or try a facial. New shoes perhaps?

For keeping on track and working out regularly, I would download new music for my ipod. For weight loss, I bought new workout clothes and shoes - that was for each 25 pounds. When I lost 100, I bought myself a new grill since mine was falling apart.

I have been buying a little cutesy inexpensive charm for my bracelet every 5 lbs Iost...that way I am giving myself something plus I get to be reminded of WHY every time I wear the bracelet.

My 20 pound goal reward is brand new makeup. I am going to get the works: eyeshadow, mascara, eye liner, lipstick, etc. I have avoided makeup because I didn't want people to notice me, but once I hit that 20, that will be a HUGE success for me and I want to celebrate it with the world!!!

For me it is just looking in the mirror and actually liking what I see. No material reward could ever beat that!

A vacation (a real one)
Dinner at your favorite restaurant
a make-over
a weekend trip
Do you have hobbies? Have you been wanting anything for them that you have been putting off?
A special outfit--for me, it would be a new hockey sweater
Tickets to a concert/activity you really want to go to.

I bought myself a massage/facial deal from groupon for when I lose 25 lbs. I'm 1lb away and made my appts.

incentives:
facial
pedi
massage
new book
make up
perfume
bath and body stuff
new bras!!!!
new undies

I think it's fun to get treats for ourselves for working so hard, and important, too.

I do. Here's some of the ideas I have.

- Makeup
- Nail polish
- $20 to spend at Goodwill/ Thrift Store
- Shoes
- work out clothes
- Movie night with my hubby
- Something I want for the house
- Hair product
- Cheap Jewelry
-Mani
-Pedi

When I hit big goals I plan on getting new outfits, Fancy (healthy) dinner out, ultimately a new wardrobe.

Time doing nothing productive.
Facial.
Pedicure.
New hair style.
Watch trashy, meaningless TV.
Send yourself flowers.
Take a day off from work.

The ones I've already got (go me!!) for reaching minigoals are a HRM and a new scale for bathroom and kitchen.

The ones I'm aiming for now are: kindle, new runners, manicure, and the two big ones - a cruise and a new wardrobe full of clothes.

significance

A professional photo shoot session (major goal).
A kitten or puppy (major goal).
A really good coffee from a fancy cafe (minor progress).
A sum of money that you get to give to your choice of charity instead of spending on bills and ordinary things (e.g. "if I don't stick to my diet this week, I'm depriving the local pet shelter of $10"!)

I'd been thinking I might ask for an anniversary trip to vegas but then I realize that I'm not gonna want to buy a cute new dress to go out in or anything because I'll want to wait until i'm close enough to my goal weight to buy a dress in that size. So maybe a birthday trip.

But the satisfaction of looking LESS fat is immeasurable, not to mention all the NSVs - I look forward to planking for a minute straight (did 35 seconds yesterday) and doing a real vertical pull up without the machine helping me, and today when I was in the gym I noticed the line of my back looks pretty good from the side so if I can just lose that pudge in the middle I will feel gooooood about it.

Dang you reminded me I really want an HRM..... and a new kindle (my old one isn't doing so good) but then again I barely have time to read anymore because the working out is taking a lot of that time.
