A big personal reward for the end of weight loss?
Replies

If I can reach my goal weight, I'm "upgrading" my wedding ring to be a constant reminder! Also, babies . Want to be a fit mom when it's finally that time.0

I have many big rewards planned! And some small in between rewards! Sometimes I just lay in bed fantasizing about all the things I will rain down upon myself once I've achieved each goal.0

When my BFF and I reach our goals we are going to finally get our Parabatai (spell?) tattoos that we've been wanting for years now0

That is... adorable!
Who gave you the right to be so cute? I'm envious that you have somebody that close to you, too!0 -
I've got a 3/4 sleeve tattoo design waiting for me. Once I drop 20kgs0

I'm halfway to my goal so I am rewarding myself with an overnight trip to a resort casino with my husband. We aren't really gamblers but we're going to see a comedian we enjoy and spend the afternoon in the spa being pampered.
When I reach my final goal, we have a small savings fund we're keeping in order to get some plane tickets to Germany to visit some of my husbands family, and to do some hiking near the old castles by their home.
I believe it is important to reward yourself but with activities instead of food. Too many times I see people reward themselves for a good job with cake or soda, which seems to defeat the purpose of getting healthy. I want to pamper my body for it's hard work and take it to exciting new places.0 -
Great rewards!! I agree @itstimeRK that rewarding with different fun activities is very important! My husband and I are hoping next winter when your youngest is older that we can join a curling team and start snowshoeing on weekends, right now we go to the gym every Sunday together.0

I have decided on my reward system until my body finally reaches the 'overweight' BMI category from the 'Obese' category. I have 6lb left to go. For each pound lost I am booking a massage to help my shoulders. I knew I was going to need a couple anyway because they have become so sore and tight from a combination of my job and cycling so much. This is just going to dictate the speed of my bookings over the next few months. The place I'm going to is really reasonable so I'm going to spend the money that I would otherwise use on takeaways and lunches out!0

I've started trying to do this. I used to reward myself with a glass of wine. Now I buy fancy bubble bath or new nail varnishes.0 -
Looking forward to fitting into that XL Paul McCartney concert t-shirt I bought 3 years ago that just hangs in my closet and a tattoo of Hanu on my back to remind me of the long long long journey I have taken to get there.0

@Gabwillucas Snowshoeing sounds like so much fun! What a wonderful reward!0

My daughter and I are going to go horseback riding at a place near here. According to their website, you have to be under a certain weight to ride their horses. I am already well under that weight, but still holding off until I hit my goal weight...maybe a bit sooner.0

I have a bucket list waiting but can't or won't do due to my weight. But my rewards are on that list. Also knowing I conquered the battle is a reward in itself. Lol. Plus shopping for smaller sizes is also another reward. Right?!?!0

For me, it's a May 1st trip to Hilton Head for a ladies long weekend. 4.6lbs to go to "bathing suit" comfort weight.0

Buying new clothes and a damn good meal(anything that includes ribs, pizza, carrot cake, or pasta).0

None. My improved health and the weight loss alone are suffiient. I might think of soemthing when I get there, such as a binge or some item, but it doesnt motivate me. If it works for you though, then use it.0

I've had little rewards along the way - cute socks, earbuds. When the weather gets nicer, I'd like to take a picnic to a state park & go for a nice hike, someplace I've never been.
When I hit 100 lb down, a friend is buying me a massage.
When I get to my goal weight (at least 110 lb down) I'm going to get some new clothes of course, but most especially a couple nice sets of undies.
I'd love to have the money for cosmetic surgery to finish off 3 particular places, get rid of the loose skin & some remaining flab. :sigh: I've read that I should give it a year after reaching goal & my skin will shrink some. So maybe in that time I can get a job & save money for surgery.

I have smaller rewards along the way (new dress, mani/pedi, date night) but my big reward is my thigh tattoo that I am getting when I reach my goal.0

A hot body should pretty much be its own reward!0
-
I have some 1940s and 50s dress patterns that I want to make, but not until I get to my goal size.0
