    The 1st thing I would do once I am at my goal would be to gobble some Ice cream.. Its my favourite food... and I have not had a single scoop for the last two months!!!! :grumble:
    So that'll be my treat to myself... Just once, I will indulge :blushing:

    Have not thought of anything else as yet... Rite now, I'd say I'll just be happy when people around will compliment me over my weight loss!! That I guess will be a reward by itself!:drinker:

    I just started this program, but when I helped my Mom lose a lot of weight a few years ago, two of the big rewards were between us and her closet. 1) weeding out large clothes and giving them to charity. It was great for the psyche - we really felt that we had left that era behind and were moving on to smaller clothes FOR GOOD. 2) "shopping in my closet". If you don't have old, smaller clothes, then go real shopping for ONE special item that really flatters your new shape. But going through your things and finding old favorites you had given up on that suddenly fit? Now THAT'S rewarding :)

    Good luck!

    I got hair extensions when I hit a certain goal; and then I got a tattoo on my hip when I reached another! But clothes are always motivators!

    My plan is to get a new belly ring, once my belly is in a shape to really show it off!

    But I just watched the Victoria's Secret fashion show, and I think I'm going to set another goal so I can splurge on a cute and sexy set of undies! :blushing:

    I have treated myself to clothes as I go along. And most recently, a teeny tiny little pair of silver Tiffany earrings that I bought in NYC a couple of weeks ago. I've been wanting them for a year. :wink:
    Reward yourself with something nice!!

    I decided today after finishing my pilates workout that my reward is going to be a bellydancing video when I loose 20lbs. I want to soooo bad, and I love dancing. My goal is by the next TRF (Texas Renaissance Festival) I can go as a bellydancer with confidence!!

    Off to the treadmill for round 2! :bigsmile:

    I have a lot of weight to lose total (80lbs) so I have several mini-goal mile-markers along the way. When I reach my first once (18lbs from now), I think I will buy a new outfit. Or at least a new pair of jeans.

    As for my final goal, I am getting a bikini and a tattoo. :)

    I have to have done something good in both school and my weight loss for me to reward myself. As of now, the end of the semester, I have a high enough grade in my hardest class that I could fail the final and still come out with a passing grade (VERY comforting because I heard that you have to expect to fail) and I'm pretty much teetering between my goal weight, one pound below, and one pound above. I consider that pretty darn good.

    Since this is happening, I bought clothes. I've been using safety pins to keep my skirts on for the past 6-8 weeks, so it was time.

    yay. :bigsmile: :bigsmile: :bigsmile:

    I bought myself a new hair straightener today, as a reward for not scarfing down all the baked goods in the house this past week.

    When I reach my goal weight, my aunt is going to take me clothes shopping and let me buy whatever I want, and I am going to get a tattoo of an angel (frog with wings and a halo, in memory of my mom) on one shoulder, and a devil driving a hot rod on my other shoulder.

    I think when I hit 50# I'm going to get a pedicure or some really awesome shoes. Plus, I'll need clothes but I refuse to call that a "reward" b/c then my dh will think that I don't need them. lol

    I LOVE TRF! I went this year. It was rather funny--my bodice was way too loose. My breasts looked awful. But when I hit my goal, I'll get it altered. I also had to get my sword belt punched a lot--the guy wound up putting about 5 new holes in it.

    When I hit my goal, I'm getting a tattoo!

    My treat when I get to my goal weight is going to be in silver form. I'm going to treat myself to a nice piece of jewelry to mark the moment :smile:
