    I'm on maintenance but when I hit my goal, I did the clothes thing and the vacation.

    I am planning on getting a tattoo on my ribs when I reach my goal of meeting and maintaining for a year 140 lbs. Got me wondering if others have rewards planned for their big goals and what they are.
    When I reach my goal I also want a tattoo down my ribs with my last name in old english text!

    I want 5 crows (my favorite) with Latin text that says "nothing is heavy to those who have wings".

    I am planning a trip to Oregon for a week to see a friend, I just started though so I have a long way to go until I want to try to get in an airplane seat ( I know at my current size I wont fit). It will be great though he will be shocked when he sees how sexy I am and he realizes what he missed out on lol.

    Think it's so interesting that so many want tats in bikini areas. I always felt too fat to show this area of my body and when I reach my goal, I want to have the confidence to finally show it off.

    My end goal is a new car. Right now I have a 2004 Jeep Grand Cherokee, and it's at the point where I'm replacing parts left and right. When I get down to 180, I'm getting a Ford Fusion :)

    I'm buying cute boots (which never fit me before because my calves were too big) and a cute fitted black leather jacket. A very nice one. That's the plan. Hope to be there by fall of this year.

    Wedding photos with my daughter where I don't look bloated.

    Interesting you say this. My plan is to have professional pictures done with my daughter. The first pictures of me and her since she was born almost 5 years ago.

    My reward is going to Disneyland! I know it sounds cliche, but I love everything Disney! I haven't been to Disneyland in 14 years and my hubby said he would take me as my graduation from nursing school gift. So, this gives me a year to get my body fat percentage down to 21%-25% (right now its at 38%). Oh, and of course to buy a new wardrobe including cute scrubs! LOL

    I want to go on vacation when I reach my goal. It has been 10 yrs since I have been on a vacation to anywhere. I have 5 kids ages 1 to 11 yrs old and it would be nice to get away for a reward.

    A few (one? two?) good pants from American Apparel. I can wear their largest size (32) now, after losing 30 pounds--but I have to jump around and stretch them out every time I wash them, hahahaha.

    My reward was the satisfaction of a job well done. I'm an intrinsic rewards personality, so I don't need much to motivate me. I consider myself lucky that way. :flowerforyou:

    A pin-up/burlesque photo shoot!

    Love it, this is one i had never heard.

    My reward was having my rings and bracelet resized to fit my new skinny fingers and wrists.

    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.....)

    Congratulations!! That is absolutely amazing.

    Amusement park. With my kids. I don't care how crazy/silly/stupid I look at my age going on the rides, but that is what I am going to do. I have a long way to go before I will fit the rides.

    A tummy tuck. I have had this c section tummy for years and no amount of exercise has helped. So when I reach my goal and it is still there, it has to GO!!

    I'm going sky diving! I've always wanted to do it, so once I hit my "big goal" I'm jumping out of a plane!

    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!!!

    Thanks! Yeah I am so freakin excited I could just spit! LOL

    We are going to Disney as a family in Aug. so this has been motivation. I want to be as comfortable as possible in the heat and just feel good. I am getting there!

    When I do reach my absolute goal, I will also get pics. It has been ages since I have had photos taken. I want a very nice family photo.
