I have always enjoyed rewarding myself with things when I hit small and big goals. My next reward will be getting more tailored shirts and pants.

I was just curious what other people rewarded themselves with....

    Workout clothes. But just seeing the scale read a smaller number and fitting into clothes better are reward enough for me!! :bigsmile:

    That's exactly what I buy myself!!

    New workout clothes, new shoes, new headbands, new lifting gloves... ahhh, the list goes on and on!!
    The best part is when you work so hard that the new stuff gets to big!! YES!!! Size Small... I will wear you by March!! :tongue:

    For every pound I lose, I put a pound in a tin. When I get halfway from a stone, I'll buy myself something cool like a 3DS game or something. I NEVER treat myself to junk food or whatever.

    Alcohol, but it doesn't seem to be working in my favor towards my deficit. :drinker:

    When I hit maintenance and successfully maintained for 3 months and also logged 500 miles on my P.O.S. Wal-Mart special Mt. Bike, I bought a nice shiny Giant Cyclocross bike which cost more than my first car.

    So far, it's all been about the new clothes. More out of necessity than anything else. I kind of have been felling like it's its own reward, you know?

    Workout clothes, new running shoes, a new Foreman grill, some Aveda facial stuff - got a Coach wristlet just waiting for when I hit my next goal.

    That's something I should try. It certainly sounds like a better motivator than chocolate. (BTW, how much in pounds is a stone?)

    Sex, chocolate and beer (not necessarily in that order).

    Ha! I hear that!

    Rode the wheels off of a $99 special from a local big box store - finally replaced it with a shiny new CAADX.

    Reached my goal weight over the last few days. I rewarded myself by buying a GPS watch as I'll be starting to run outside soon (which I'm waiting to arrive in the mail) and also am buying a few new pairs of workout shorts this weekend (that will fit my skinnier waist better).

    14 pounds (lbs) = 1 stone (st)

    I haven't ever really rewarded myself. I bought new clothes, because they were needed.
    I did think about the £1 for a lb idea.
