    You know, I hadn't really thought about rewards for attaining my ultimate goal. I guess at this moment it's a new wardrobe ($$ willing!) and just knowing I'm gonna rock the beach with my new body!

    I set my goals small--10 lbs at a time--and go for non-food rewards such as a new pair of skinny jeans or a pretty shirt, which I usually need anyway by the time I've lost 10-15 lbs. So far I've lost about 25 lbs total (I started losing before I joined MFP) and had a couple of fun mini-shopping sprees. Dropped 3 pants sizes and went from large to medium in shirts--that's MOTIVATING!

    I started at 426 and today I am 324. 102 pounds. My caring husband bought me my dream reward, a bike. Now I am cruising down our country roads in the fall. All 6'3" 324 pounds of me. People better move. :)Rewards are important and so fun.

    Just waiting until I wean my daughter, and can find the best artist, but going to be getting a full back piece. I rewarded myself week by week for sticking with it with lots of workout clothes, and new tunes once every couple weeks.

    At 25 I got an MP3 player.
    At 50 I will get new running shoes.
    At 75 I will get a heart rate monitor.
    At 100 I will get my tattoo.
    Sponsored by my wonderful friends and family who are helping me get these things when I meet goal.

    The way I look will be my reward.

    All very cool ideas. I have to admit that I have actually lost 20 lbs not 3. And I have not rewarded myself yet. I wish I could though. The best reward that I have had so far is being able to look in the mirror and go where did it all go? lol I look at my pictures on facebook and can't believe I use to look like I did. I mean I had been over weight for most of my life and now I am fitting into clothes that I bought when I was a teenager, you know that time when you are trying to fit into smaller clothes that make you look bad, and i look great now.

    and for wobbspsl are looking for someone to draw up a pic for your back piece? I LOVE to draw. you can message me if you want.

    And for everyone else you are still inspiring me to really think about other rewards that are there. I have been so focused on getting a tattoo of a weeping willow tree on my arm, but there is so much more like being happy with what I have done in my weight loss. So thank you

    When I reach 145 (don't ask me why I chose this number instead of my halfway mark which is 148, haha, I thought about changing it but I was like, no I already said 145 I am not changing it! haha) I am buying myself some new work out clothes from Victoria Secret or somewhere fairly 'high end'
    At my final goal I am getting my belly button re-pierced. I had it done a while back but was always too fat to show it off. Then I lost all the top balls off of them and it grew over. Once I reach my goal weight I should be able to show it off anytime I want!!

    That is pretty cool. It will feel so awesome to be able to show off what you created! Way to go
