    I actually do set up rewards. I have small ones....like 1 hour Bubble Bath, or Sleep in late for each number I loose that ends in 5 (5, 15, 25, etc.) I have bigger ones set up for 20, 40, 60. 20 is new shoes. 40 is a new hair style. 60 is a shopping trip with no limits (my husband came up with this idea). I do LOVE the burn feeling after a workout, and like seeing the changes in my body, but I have to admit, the other things make it a bit more special.

    I tend to be horrible with money as is, so I know my rewards are probably a little bit elaborate, but by giving myself 50$-100$ to blow on non food items every couple of weeks ( as long as I meet the weight goal) I kind of kill two birds with one stone. I'm a HUGE impulse spender, so I have to keep every penny locked away or my money would just disappear lol. So I go the 2 weeks with nothing but essentials (not even a coffee most of the time) and then I give myself big rewards, like a new 100$ outfit.

    It's a little much, especially being on a student budget, but I know I'd blow way more if I didn't, and I work my but off every summer when I'm not in school to pay for it =p
