    My rewards for when I completely accomplish my goal.

    *New Wardrobe- Professional, casual, party dresses, formal dresses (There are alot of weddings,, confirmations in my family coming up), date night clothing, beach wear. And of course Shoes! (I am a bit of a girly girl when it comes to shoes.)

    *The sexy belly dancing outfits I want to get but am scared to at my current weight! (Yes I love belly dancing and I'd kinda like to join a troupe one of these days.)

    *Belly Button Piercing- Yes. I'm admitting it... I want a belly button piercing, especially if I can match it to a sexy belly dancing outfit as noted above.

    *A weekend spa retreat! I know where I'm going to go to!

    *A vacation to Ireland (Even if I decide I can't wait and go before.. I'll go again!)

    *Phase 3 food EVERY DAY! (You've no idea how much I miss avocado's the most! As it is now with the Harcombe diet I can eat phase 3 foods occasionally but I can't wait to get to maintanence phase and eat some of my favorites, like homemade thin crust pizza with parmesan & mozerella cheese, my healthy alternative sauce, pineapple slices, bacon, and grilled chicken!

    *Seeing the looks on a certain group of people's faces when I show up to a mutual friend's wedding (Is this a tad bit petty of me?)

    i totally forgot about piercings and tattoos!!! your piercing comment reminded me that i totally want a rib tattoo!!!! heck yes!!

    i love your last bullet point- lol! love it!! good luck girl! lets make these come true!!



    Mine is a rib tattoo of something that means the world to me in regards to some actions/choices in my life:

    rewarding* :)
  • After I reach my goal I am going to get into some of my old clothes that I havent worn in over two years! That will be a treat for me I miss my shirts lol.

    Then after that, and I know that this sounds lame I am going to readjust my goal and keep on trucking.

    I can't believe there are only a couple of us - but I want a boob lift. I've decided I need to maintain for at least a year before that will happen.

    I love everybody's answers and there are clear themes I agree with:

    1) New Clothes - Thank god I can get more skinny clothes for my $$$ that currently with PlusSizes - I will need a whole new wardrobe :-)

    2) Tatoos - I've waited to get any becasue of the last note on here! Brave props to all that want rib ink - that is one of the most painful areas, especially with no fat on the bone :-) I will need a few to cover up, again see last point.

    3) Bikini & place to wear it - White or Pink bikini that shows off my tattoos on Disney Cruise to the Eastern Caribbean! (Don't worry, there's an adults only area, that's where I hang out!)

    4) Plastic and Recontructive Surgery - This is the one that was mentioned and I will unfortunately need - after losing 100lbs and being that way for over 10yrs, my skin will not go back. I will need a tummy tuck (no muscle knitting) or upper body lift, breast reduction-possible implants, arm skin removal-possible lyposuction and a lower body lift.

    Actually 4 shoulda been number 1 but I'm trying to focus on the first three :-)

    Agreed - I'm scared to look worse small than when I was fat :-) Modern medicine rocks!

    Not having to shop in the Women's section of the store will be awesome.

    A year after, I might get another tattoo, but that's mostly incentive to keep up with my present lifestyle.

    I fear i may need some surgery too. I guess we will make that a 2 year maintenance goal. Unless the extra skin causes problems... But I'll just hope it plays nice and shrinks up on it's own.
  • I have rewards for my milestones (5lbs i get some new songs on itunes, 10 a mani pedi, 15 some cool new workout gear, 20 new jeans). Haven't decided on a final goal yet!

    Don't worry a lot of the skin will shrink - I have stretch marks (and I don't have any kids!) so I know I will need surgery - there is no cure for stretch marks but to cut them off :-(

    After this 7 Wk Challenge I have given myself, my reward will be to fix my shoulder tattoo. I have been waiting years for this. I also get a week break.

    After my 11 Wk Challenge, I will purchase a sexy shirt and sexy pair of jeans (I am modest about my body right now but after the inches come off and some toning I hope to rock a sexy outfit). Then another weak break.

    My reward will be to go into a Japanese clothing store and buy the cute bohemian outfits I see them wearing and be able to fit it (even though I'll probably be too tall) and a traditional kimono as a keepsake of our time living here. Darn these ladies are so skinny and petite!

    marry the man..told him I would never marry him while I was fat!..sometimes its motivation to lose sometimes..its really not lol!
  • A new wardrobe is pretty much a given. My husband and I are going to dress to the nines and fly to New York for a wonderful dinner and to an Orchestra! There is one thing I look forward to the most though... self esteem.

    My husband agreed to a 2 week Hawaiian vacation!! Also, a new wardrobe and tattoo. Possibly a tummy tuck down the road but I hope I don't need it.

    Its been fun reading all of these!:drinker:

    Certainly a new wardrobe and probably a tummy tuck. I will, of course, need something fun for me too and since I got my iPad for my 100 lb lost mark I will need to find something awesome. Still deciding on the fun reward but have lots of time to figure that out as it will still be awhile.

    Shopping for new clothes in the regular women's section, not Plus size! The satisfaction from this alone would be enough. However, I may opt for some plastic surgery to take up the slack left in my skin after losing all this weight!

    This is going to sound odd amidst all the new wardrobes, spa days, fancy shoes, etc. But I have set a prize at the end of a Colt 1911 pistol. I will of course pretty it up with some polished wood grips (cherry? Tiger?) and a pair of nice leather holsters, one shoulder and one hip. Maybe in both brown and black. Gotta have black for those formal occasions, right? ;)

    165-Buy a new Holly Aiken purse with a funky design. (I'm not very girly girl. Some of her purses are fun and funky!)

    155-new clothes for work i don't want to look like a college grad forever (tshirts and jeans).

    145-Possibly a new lens for my Sony A55.

    131-Not having to shop in the womans section-dressing in clothes I LIKE, not grudgingly accept. Being fit and a healthy weight. And, most importantly, getting my diabetes under control to the point of needing little to no medicine!
  • Hmmm~~~*daydreaming*~~....

    A new wardrobe....
    A fierce dominican blowout (hairstyle)....
    A weekend getaway so I can lounge on the beach and wear my new swimsuits that I plan on buying.....
    A photoshoot (hey, I'm working hard for this new body :).........
    And a total spa experience.....

    Sounds so good...come on 2013!!

    Clothes are pretty much a given as I lose weight. Can't have my pants falling off now can I? :)

    I do want to buy a pair of skinny jeans, though.
    And at least one bra from Victoria's Secret (because I can't do it now).

    At my goal weight, I'm going to get a rib cage tattoo (design to be determined).
    I currently make all my own belly dance costumes because I can't find any to fit me. So when I get to my goal weight, I will order a costume. Finally!

    I have had one small victory--last year, when i started with Weight Watchers in April, I could not fit my feet into Steven Madden shoes. Late last year, I was able to buy two pairs of SM stilettos. :)
