Rewards

Does anyone have any ideas on how one can reward themselves if they stay on task. I feel like I would do better counting calories, exercising, etc. if I had some kind of reward for my efforts. I know I will be greatly rewarded when I can fit into my skinny jeans but do others splurge on something nice when they hit the small milestones along the way?

I was going to say new clothes.
I have lost 55 lbs. so far and all my clothes now look like tents. I told myself I will not buy any new clothes until I hit the 200 lb. mark. I finally did it and bought a couple of pairs of jeans ans a couple of shirts. What I did not expect was all the compliments I have received when wearing my new clothing. Suddenly a lot of people noticed I am "looking really good". That is my reward I suppose, and it gives me motivation to get rid of the last 20 lbs.0 -

but i am thinking about the skinny jeans i've wanted for a long time when i reach my goal weight.0 -
I rarely buy myself something nice so when I reach my mildstones I treat myself to that nice designer hand bag or piece of Tiffany jewelry that I have had my eye on! It makes me work hard and I don't feel guilty when I buy it because I honestly feel I earned it! New clothes is always nice too, but when you lose so much weight that becomes a necessity rather than a splurg...lol0
