Earn yourself an outfit!

My wardrobe can be summed up in one word: scrubs. Okay, so I have a few more things - a pair of jeans, athletic clothes, and a few sundresses that don't fit anymore. But I refuse to purchase new clothes unless I lose weight.

So here's the plan: I am going to contribute $1.25 to a savings account everyday I am under my calorie goal. I will contribute another $1.25 for everyday I workout. My shopping date is set for October 1st. I could potentially set aside $230.00 if I am under my calorie goal and exercise everyday. My goal is to eat no more than 1600 calories a day, and to create a exercise deficit of at least 400 calories a day.

I want to start a group for support and encouragement for anyone else who wants to earn themselves a shopping trip. I thought about setting a weight goal, but I always get discouraged if I don't see progress on the scale and give up. I think if I focus on my habits, then the weight loss will work itself out.

If there is interest, I will create a group. Guys and gals welcome!
