    When I hit 30lbs lost back in 2010, I went skydiving. It was amazing, and because I was under 200lbs I didn't have to pay extra! I really like the idea of a new tattoo once I reach my next goal, but I may go skydiving again.

    i've set small goals for myself as well. Some of my rewards are getting my lip pierced....a tattoo, a body massage (which is a really nice one after all that working out you have done!) and my big reward for when i get to my goal weight is a $1,000 shopping day for new clothes :-)

    I reward myself with fitness equipment: HRM, body fat analyzer, fitness books, workout clothes. My goal weight is 170 (although I am leaning towards losing more) and my "large" reward is going to be a "home gym".

    When I've reached my goal weight, I'll get a tattoo I've wanted for ages :')
    And personally, I think losing weight is often a reward itself, haha. I get so happy when I've lost weight, it makes me happy :)

    I try to stay away from "awards" like weekly. I try to do it when I hit like 5 lbs gone, 10 lbs, etc. Only takes a 12 oz steak to set you back a few pounds. I have even cut out a small piece of candy as an "award."

    I work for a high end jewelry store and had a customer come in a couple of weeks ago with the same dilema. she told me how she was doing weight watchers, reached her goal weight and wanted to reward herself with a new charm for her charm bracelet but it couldn't be obvious (more personal) after about a half hour we found the perfect charm for her. It's called "through the looking glass" she said it was perfect because she could now look in the mirror and be happy with how she looked now. for me it wasn't a huge sale but was so happy she left with something that will remind her to keep up the good work!

    I know I might get some stick for this, but every Saturday is treat day, I love just about every food product known to man so on Saturdays anything goes from morning till night, by the end of the day I am often stuffed like a thanksgiving turkey, but at least I' m full of all the naughty goodies I love, yum yum, I've always done this and have always lost weight if I'm good the rest of the week SATURDAY bring it on !!! :)

    Im going to treat that worked out body of mine to a massage or some pampering. I've got my eye on "Mud Envelopment –
    Skin conditioning and detoxifying wrap"

    When I reach my ultimate goal of 22% body fat, this is the tattoo I'm going to get.

    I saw a lovely pair of jeans that are waaayy more than I would normally pay. I've promised myself when I hit goal I will treat myself to them and it will give me an incentive to stay at goal too ;0)

    I also do the pedicure, new shoes, gym clothes thing, no food reward here either..I like the idea of the cash jar, so much $ per workout and so much $ per weight loss, which would be great towards some new clothes when I have reached my goal!!!

    I have two pounds to go before I am in the healthy BMI range. I will get my hair trimmed and styled, maybe highlighted. My next goal will be a tattoo.

    The best friend and I are actually planning a trip to Costa Rica, probably next Spring after we reach our goal weights.
    I am pretty excited. We have some things that we are going to do while there that we can mark off of our bucket lists.
