    I have a good friend that had to move to Alabama in 2011 for her job. I went to visit her once in 2012, I weighed about 300lbs. I joined MFP on January 1 2013...I am currently at 239LBS. (I was at 280 when I joined), She knows nothing about this at all, we just chat on the phone and facebook occasionally.
    Every year in July we meet at Hilton Head, SC for a week at her Aunts Timeshare.....My goal is to be under 200, even if its 199, when we meet.....It is not a purchase or anything like that...BUT It will be one mammoth reward to see her face when I step outta my car!.

    This is the best one yet... IMO!!! Congrats on your loss so far!!!

    45 lbs from now I am going to go to LuluLemon and go on a shopping spree. Seems like a long ways away, though!

    I have hated having my photo taken for so many years, that I am going to treat myself to a photo shoot, of just me! May have a few boudoir shots done too - for the husband as a reward for his great support ;) 13 lbs to go!!!

    My reward is to go out and buy a very nice gown/dress (one of the ones that is slender. I've never been able to wear one due to being overweight. I always thought they were so beautiful). I will also be getting my hair done. While I'm doing that my husband will be getting dressed up, and then we will be going out to a dinner theater near my house. I'm super excited for that wonderful date night with my husband!!

    Yup! I'm going to Electric Forest Festival 2013 in Rothbury, MI, to dance and jam to music for 4 days and nights, at the end of June and I'ma be slimmer than I've been since Rothbury Music Festival 2008. :)
    Hooping is so much easier in skinny shirts. It'll be good to be back into my good clothes again.

    I knew early on that once a dropped around 300 pounds I was going to need some intervention so my reward was a circumferential body lift which I successfully had done (surgeon removed 17 lbs. of loose skin) 6 months ago... Best money I ever spent.. (Or should I say will be paying off over the next couple years! lol) ...... Buying my first pair of Levi's runs a pretty close second (Had not been able to wear jeans in over 12-14 years.....)

    I've always wanted a tattoo but I've always been too fat, so I think that, plus some new clothes, and maybe I'll finally take my long awaited trip to see one of my first, and best, MFP pals in Australia. Gotta save some money!! :laugh:

    Full sleeve tattoos and (hopefully) thinking about getting married.
    I don't think I can truly ever make another person happy if I'm not 100% happy with myself. My weight and fitness are the last two obstacles I have in that regard.
