I always say this type of thing to myself to motivate me and really hope I can reach my goal this time around! Does anyone else say something similar?

If I lose the weight, I want want to cut my hair to a bob and dye it blonder =]

    I personally don't have anything like that right - but I should probably do something as recently I've felt a little unmotivated, except for today, today is an amazing day!

    Breast augmentation! Having kids and losing weight really takes the breast tissue away. When I maintain my goal weight (about 8 lbs away), then I'll see what shape I settle into...and go from there!

    I do say that and find it to be a really good motivator. I have a lot of weight to lose so I actually set mini goals for myself and put something after each one as a reward. I am rapidly approaching mini goal #1 and am excited about getting a pedicure in the next couple of weeks. :)

    If I lose 50 lbs I will learn to scuba dive! I just can't even stand the thought of me in a scuba suit right now. I hope 50 lbs is enough!

    If I lose about 65 pounds, I will dye my hair this color!

    Also, I would get a tattoo on my back or shoulder. =)

    If I lose 50lbs I'll buy myself a pretty summer dress and shoes for the first time in a LONG time.

    If I lose 100lbs my chances of getting pregnant without medical intervention will skyrocket!

    And even if I can't get pregnant on my own still, once I lose 100lbs the fertility clinic will actually HELP me!

    two of my mini goal rewards are a HRM and okaley sunglasses.
    I SPOIL my kids and go without myself. Just writing that makes me feel guilty! They are both expensive rewards! My rationalization is that they are both involved in furhtering my healthy lifestyle (I want sunglasses that won't slip when I run).

    So I'm not the only one who sets these goals =] I love all of these goals and really like the idea of setting mini ones for reaching certain weights! I think I am going to do that

    Here's another one: If I lose 45lbs I'll be at the weight I was when I broke up with my ex 3 years ago. A mutual friend is getting married this summer, so if I can lose that weight and tone at the same time, I'll be in the best shape he's ever seen me in and in a beautiful dress.....not to mention on the arm of a taller, better looking, and all around BETTER man.....bwahahaha!
