Just curious as what you reward yourself when you have reached you're mini goals and so on? Apart from the new clothing of course..

    I have a rewards list on my fridge. eg.

    5kg lost = pedicure
    10kg lost = hot stone massage
    15kg lost = new handbag
    20kg lost = hair makeover

    etc

    that way I'm always working towards something! :)

    My first goal was "fake nails".
    Second goal was a new purse.
    Third goal was a piece of jewelry
    And my next goal will be a pair of Dansko clogs.
    My final goal will be a spa weekend away with my husband...

    Clothes - I know you said besides that BUT I don't have massive weight loss so I haven't really changed size so there is no necessity for new clothes (my old ones just fit better) So new stuff really is a reward. Either cute as work out clothes or new clothes for work and going out that make me feel confident and awesome ;)

    When I hit my (then) goal of 150 lbs... My reward was a tree tattoo on my side.
    If I can hit 140 and maintain, it will either be tattoo or clothes.

    My first reward here was a FitBit, its $100 so I had to prove I could lose something before blowing the money.

    I enjoy getting new computer games - I am addicted to hidden object games - or new books when I reach my mini goals. I managed to lose 20 pounds with a reward for every 5 pounds before finding mfp. Other things I have considered are new music CDs, going to see movies at the theater instead of renting movies, getting my hair done, and jewelry (even though I don't wear much normally).
