Are any of you going to be making up a reward chart for your "milestones"? I thought about this last night and think its a great idea! I have never done this before so I think this is something I plan to try! I think I am going to do small things every 5lbs, and on the bigger milestones do some things that are a bit more expensive like jewelry 
Like a girl needs an excuse for jewelry hehe. I am still trying to figure out what I want my end goal reward to be I thought about maybe buying a new car already have one in mind :-) but need to talk to the hubby about this. We have already talked about getting a new car so it shouldn't be a big surprise!
So do you plan to make a chart? If so Have you thought about your end goal reward?

I actually have one on the front page of my journal. It has spa day's, a HRM, new walking shoes, a window shopping day for daughter and I, new clothes valued at $$, etc. Not all are monetary as we homestead so money is tight, not all of them are major some just minor things, but NONE involve food, as rewarding myself with food helped get me here.0

Great idea! Obviously there are things I'm already looking forward to (like new clothes), but I'll have to think about a reward chart. Love Alliwan's non-monetary rewards, too.0

I had thought about it but never really put it into place. Great ideas! I think I will try it to keep my goals in the front of my mind!0

I think this is an awesome idea. I am going to work on a chart but I am thinking that a spa day, a weekend getaway, clothes things like that and also some smaller less expensive things as well.0

this is a good idea, i feel 99% of mine will be nail varnish related...

I completed my goal list on Monday just in time for the new year! :-) It's amazing how such a simple thing can motivate you to do better!
How is everyone doing on their charts?0 -
I think for every 5lbs I would 1. Carry a bag of 5lb potatoes or flour to show how much I was carrying around on my body.
2. Just enjoy my weightloss!0 -
I do not have rewards chart, but I make goals in terms of overall time line when I'd like to lose weight. They are generally holiday/birthday related. Have a date in mind versus an item makes it more tangible and real for me.0

I really LOVE the idea of carrying the bag of potatoes around! Sometimes I feel like 5 lbs doesn't seem like much, but I'm pretty sure carrying it around would definitely change my mind!0 -
