Found my winning motivation!

Options
I am quite young so losing weight shouldn't be as hard as I feel it has been. I set myself up for short term goals. Very small so I don't feel discouraged.

I was browsing around and found an amazing idea that I think is perfect!
A reward just for yourself for every ten pounds! I found this great for us moms because all of our time and effort mostly goes into our children and boyfriends/husbands

Thinking bigger rewards but nothing too big

180 - mani/pedi

170 - professional massage

160 - beautiful new outfit (from accessories to underwear even!)

150 - child free night out with the significant other and maybe child free for a couple nights

140 - a weekend getaway

I am thinking every 30 - 50 pounds something very extravagant (depending on how much you have to lose)

Anybody else have any ideas like this or thoughts on it?

    Ive seen a lot of people do this and I think its a really cute idea! However I think its important to remember the main reason you are losing weight is to be healthier and happier.

    I didn't do this exactly, but I did enjoy buying new workout clothes in the next smallest size and my goal was always to make my current workout clothes not fit anymore!

    I would love to do a getaway when I'm at or close to goal.
    Maybe even a tattoo along he way, but we'll see
