    For breaking 200 which I just accomplished in the last few weeks I am getting a tattoo of a cross that my son drew. When I get to my overall goal, clothes are a given because nothing will fit me anymore, but I have a little black dress that has been hanging in my closet that I want to wow my hubby with.

    I buy myself clothes from stores I couldn't even shop in before. Like last night I bought 3 peairs of slacks for $33 bucks from Gap.
    When I loose 12.5 more lbs I'll no longer be obese so I'll reactivate my fb for that.

    At 10 lbs my husband will return his beard to a short 5 'o clock shadow. He gave me an incentive, he is growing it out until I lose the 10. He does have to keep it trimmed.

    Nothing against beards, they look great on some men, it just doesn't fit my husband well.

    After that, my girls get to pick the incentive.... this should be interesting.

    And by "my girls" you mean..?

    My 12 year old and 9 year old daughters!!! :)

    That is so cool your whole family is motivating you!

    I was thinking more along the lines of having some cheesecake at the end of the week if I've went 6 days without slipping :)

    My motivational gift to myself was a new juicer, that got me down 4 lbs right away! My reward at 5 lbs lost was a massage, and at 10 lbs a facial and tooth whitening. At 15 lbs lost I earned a new Excalibur food dehydrator! At 20 lbs lost I will get to go to Palm Springs with my two besties for the weekend (Aug 10 and I KNOW I can do it!), and when I hit 25 lbs total loss (back to size 4, my goal) and maintain it for 60 days, I get to go shopping for new clothes.

    For me, rewards don't mean anything. I already do/buy whatever I want, whenever I want, so there is no inherent motivation there. Not much use in "buying" your motivation, it is better/stronger when it comes from within. My motivation is to continue to feel better about myself.

    6 months after I hit my UGW I am getting skin removal surgery :) If I am not able to tighten it on my own. I will also reward myself by applying to the police force.

    My wife's reward is a shopping trip to Marks and Spencer's for a new Wardrobe, that'll make more sense when you realize we are in the US.

    My reward is a hot wife since she is losing her weight quicker than me :smile:

    I haven't really thought about it, I bought a HRM and some exercise clothes when I started and have since bought a few new tops. I think having nice family photo's done that I am not embarrassed to be in would be a nice reward.

    My reward to myself is getting healthier and getting my daughter to eat healthier!

    I did make my best friend promise that When I lose a total of 60lbs (which is just about 1/2 my weight loss goal) That she will go to a concert with me! I haven't been to a concert in a long time! I really don't like going out in public because I feel so self conscious about myself. I am down a total of 25lbs now so I only have 35 more to go for my Concert.

    Ultimately Feeling better about myself, being healthier, and being a good role model for my daughter is my main concern!!! I just recently bought a used treadmill (3 yrs old, $600 treadmill) For $100.00 And a New Recumbent exercise bike. Also I just ordered the fitbit ultra (hopefully it is worth the $100.00).

    And of course I will have to buy a new wardrobe as I lose the weight and can't wear things anymore. Goodwill here I come, cause i'm not spending money on brand new clothes until I reach my Ultimate goal weight.

    Best of luck to everyone! If anyone needs a good support buddy feel free to friend me. I have a total weight loss goal of 130 lbs. I am down 25, so 105 more to go.

    Hip microdermals..(but I'm not so sure of that anymore because I'm really scared) and new clothes!

    OMG! I googled that and found an actual youtube video showing three of them being inserted. I think they are beautiful and sexy as hell. I think something like that would really motivate me to keep the weight off but I really don't know if I could go through that much pain and I think I'm a little old (I'l be40 in four days). http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=24lVRcZAn44

    I have lost 78 lbs and haven't rewarded my self w/much more than exercise clothes that actually fit. I'm not spending much on clothes since I don't plan on staying this size for long. So I guess a new wardrobe once I get where I want to be (it's more of a look than a weight goal) I want to be fit and healthy, that's my ultimate goal. Oh and to get off cholesterol meds. I can't find a job so money is tight so I'm still wanting a HRM and a set of weights. I have to admit a massage would be nice. I am getting a tattoo as well but that's for turning 40. I might get my belly button peirced, I've always wanted it done (but felt too fat) and I think it would be a nice reward. I'd like a tragus piercing too. Also, depending on how my boobs turn out when I'm at goal fitness level I may want a breast enhancement or have some skin removed, perk those bad boys up :) (saddest thing about losing weight is losing my breast size)
