what is your reward?

gee_gees

I was thinking that for my reward, other than losing weight and feeling great, I will set aside 10$ per pound lost.
When I will reach my first goal, not be obese by BMI standard, around 185 lbs, I will most likely need new bras and jeans.
This money reward will be a great way to spend it.

What is your reward on this journey?

It sounds so silly, but I want to get my hair professionally dyed this color when I reach 115:



I've never had a fun color in my hair before, and I'm getting ready to start nursing school... basically, about to hit the point in my life when it won't be acceptable anymore. Hospitals are pretty strict when it comes to things like this, I've heard.

I hope to reach my weight goal by next New Years. And if I do, I am going to splurge on a fabulous new dress and an amazing night on the town. Maybe I'll even head to New York!

when i hit my goal weight i am going to splurge on a tropical vacation! Because I will need a vacation and be beach ready! :drinker:

I have mini goals, so once I hit 10lbs lost I get a new pair of shoes, which I really need anyways, but hey why not make it a prize! Once I hit 20lbs my fiance and I are going gambling, may not be fun for others, but we think it's a fun atmosphere and we don't ever gamble. When, and not if, I hit my goal weight of 54lbs lost, I plan to spend a lot of my tax money from the following year on a new wardrobe. If I hit it mid year or right after Spring it just adds to my goals, I will have to maintain my goal weight in order to spend the money on new clothes. A lot of ppl also say they reward themselves with manis and pedis, but I'm not really into that. I figure once I start losing some weight maybe I'll start tanning again, anything that boosts my confidence and strengthens my want to lose weight!!

I am going on a vacation to the Caribbean and I have been putting $5 away per lb I lose for a new wardrobe as well so that I can have a shopping spree. Both of these will be firsts for me, so I am very excited about these.

brandybea

i told my husband along time ago i was going to spend $300 on clothes when i get to my goal and he said make that $600 lol okay = )

I've set mini goals/rewards for every 5 pounds lost. Some of them are mani/pedi, new workout outfit, hair colored and styled, new skinny outfit, fitbit, spray tan, etc....

alfpalmer

what a great idea! I may just try that too... Use it to do a little side trip and who knows, new clothes may be found on the journey!

a NEW wardrobe!!!:happy: Cant wait:)

I give myself rewards at 10 pounds. First ten was a fabulous haircut ( short and sassy and not hiding my face) and a deep rich new color...Plum! I am taking this journey 10 pounds at a time ....next 10 is a great pair of suede boots! If I break it into small increments it seems much more doable!

extremewinner

I have a few things in mind that Ill do for myself..

- Professional photoshoot
- Haircut and highlights
- Shopping spree (Ive been adding money each time I eat poorly)
- Let myself go back into a pool! Eeeee.

I was thinking about rewarding myself every 10lbs with a charm/bead for my Pandora bracelet. Each one to represent the passing of the weight and the beginning of a new life. My final charm will be a butterfly. I don't really want to buy any new clothes until I reach my goal.

This is exactly what I had planned to do :laugh: I am going to get the Murano glass beads for every stone that I lose, and I am getting very excited as I am only 4lbs away from my 1st stone :bigsmile: ]

I have two ,I said that when I lost 50 I will cut all of my relaxed ends so that my hair was completely curly. And when i reach my final goal I will color my hair. I think it will be auburn .

That is an awesome thing to do.....too bad I only have 10 more to lose, or I would do that as well!

wittlelacey

When I feel comfortable in my own body I'm getting my nose and my belly button pierced )) It's not a huge reward but it's definitely a huge motivation for me!

Chaquilas

When I reach my first goal, which is 10% lost by July 1st. I am gonna plan a spa day and beach trip for my 30th birthday on 8/21.

When I reach my goal, im having a tatoo. Im thinking of inking a phoenix to symbolize my rebirth - of reclaiming my life

i love that lavender color.... the fade look is so pretty...

I want to buy some lululemon workout clothes. They're so expensive that I want to wait till I'm at my "permanent size" before I invest in them! I also want to buy a new "little black dress".:happy:

AlaskaLily

my friend and i give each other $10 per pound....my first reward is a tattoo that I have wanted. I do mini goals too, never food rewards though!!!

When I started losing weight I bought myself an empty charm bracelet. I add one charm for every five pounds lost. It's both a reward and a visible reminder to stay on plan.

My first fitness show- April 14th, 2012. Helps keep me motivated to keep pushing and not let any of that weight come back on or lose the strength I've worked for 3 years to build!

decemberjewel

I have a lot of mini goals: a new purse and a new wallet, new shoes, a Body Fit or some type of tracker (still in the process of searching), and dying my hair a really crazy color (I'm not sure which one). When I reach my goal weight, I want a tattoo of Tweety Bird on my right wrist and if I continue to maintain for a year, I want a tattoo of Tinkerbell on my left wrist.

I'm also refusing to cut my hair until I reach my goal weight. I hate long hair so this a great motivation for me!
