Ok so here goes! I started AGAIN my weigh loss journey on 11/29/10 and so far I've lost 11.2 lbs!!!!! Woohooo this is the most I've lost in a longggg time! I'm so excited and had decided to set short term goals. My first goal was at 10 lbs lost I would reward myself. Before I accomplished goal I was like I can get this I can get that and now that I've hit that 10 lbs mark I'm like ughhhhh I dont know what to do :( I had wanted a pedicure or manicure but nah. Any good suggestions?!?! I'm open to anything! Usually I set huge goals but this time around doing things differently which has really helped!!

    i think all of the above are good rewards. i know after my first STRAIGHT two weeks, which I have not had 100% success in completing yet, I told myself I would buy a tanning package for myself. I don't tan very often and I know it's not very good for you but it's something that helps keep my spirits up so I figure once or twice a week can't kill me. But that's just me!

    Hot stone massage! Had one last weekend and it is SO good!

    Or cheaper options like new bubble bath soak/moisturiser/face mask - to enjoy with a glass of wine :)

    I love the Tanning idea, I haven't done it in a couple of years but a nice healthy glow always seems to make me feel better!

    Mmm hot stones sounds great! Wow I've never done a tan :0/ that also sounds pretty darn good! Just what I needed a bunch of different ideas!!! Thank you sooo much guys! I'm from Texas so can't go wrong w a tan either. I live in a college town and everyone seems to tan here. It's amazing I've never gone and gotten one done before. I wonder if I have to get naked for that?!? Maybe that's the reason why I've never gone to get it professionally done lmao!!!!!!! Knowing me if I did if myself at home I'd come out looking like a zebra lmao!!!!

    Massage, Tan, Do you like to buy pretty Hair things or some new makeup? Get your hair done, or a make over. Get some new fingernail polish, or a new cover for your phone. There's many options! :) Have fun!!

    ahh, I like buying a new book. A new piece of clothing? Earings? So many cool things that you can do small rewards. Congrats on the weight loss.

    not to be a negative nelly, but SPRAY tans don't give you that pesky, deadly Melanoma.


    you wouldn't celebrate with cigarettes, would you? Tanning beds are lethal.

    Celebrate well, but think of your health :heart:

    Yeah a good book!!! That had never crossed my mind :0/ That's a good idea.....now to see when I could find time to squeeze that in. I'm lucky if I get an hour alone. Hey that's a new thing to do...make (ME TIME)!
