Rewards for Goals

When you reach your goal (either a big or little one) do you reward yourself? I wasn't going to, but decided that my first goal of 20% of what I want to lose (6lbs or so), I'll get my hair cut into something I like more. (It's grown out and I don't like it right now.)

At 10lbs I'll figure out something for me.

At 50% of what I'd like to lose (15lbs or so) I'm rewarding myself with new knee high boots!

Not sure what 75% and 100% will bring...probably new pants!

What are some of your rewards?

    Losing all my excess is reward enough (halo spinning furiously) but I am thinking about a tattoo a la Shannen Poynton

    I went out and got some new clothes - stuff I wouldn't have worn at my heavy weight. I guess it was more of a necessity than a reward, but it felt good to donate the bigger sizes. :smile:

    I think a haircut is a great way to reward yourself!

    Other ideas for rewards:

    mani/pedi
    new lipstick
    fresh flowers
    massage
    spa day
    a new purse
    jewelry
    museum membership
    a day/weekend trip
