I've lost 98 pounds in 33 weeks. Coming up on 100 pounds lost.

SW - 335
GW - 250
CW - 237

Any suggestions on how to celebrate losing 100 once I get there? The old me would go out to dinner and eat too much. If I did that now, I would regret it afterwards. I suppose I could still go out, be good and show that I have control over how I do when eating out. Or I could have what I want, deal with it and get it out of my system.

Thoughts?

    A trip, professional pictures, new clothes, new exercise equipment, or anything else you've been wanting, but putting off.

    Congratulations on your loss so far!

    Celebrate ~~~ saving your LIFE! In essence, that's what you've done. So, celebrate LIFE! Congratulations! Now, the most dangerous and biggest challenge is facing you for the rest of your life and that is: keeping the FAT POUNDS off your precious body.

    Tami Jones Shumate has done that for more than a year~~~188 lbs. later. She's a fine and resounding example to all the rest of us. Daily, she logs every single item that goes in her mouth. She STILL accurately weighs, measures, levels off all excess quantities and records everything that ends up in her mouth. It took her 15 months to go from 331 lbs. to lose 186 lbs. She has a full time job plus she teaches fitness classes now at two gyms in Washington State.

    You can be the male counterpart to that example. You can share your success with others. Make yourself available to speak to church groups, to school children's classes and other groups about heart healthy eating, exercise and healthy living. You can help reduce the American fat society population by teaching them how to do it right. Yes, you CAN. Now, wouldn't that be a great celebration of life?

    Go for it~~~you ROCK!

    Add me to your friends list if you wish.

    Buy yourself a present! Is there anything you've been wanting for a while but not wanting to spend the money on?

    I don't reward myself with gifts for milestones, but that's only because I buy myself small presents all the time, lol.


    Oh yes, and CONGRATULATIONS! 100 is a great accomplishment! I'll be joining you there in about 9 pounds :)

    AWESOME JOB, if you want to eat out I say go for it but don't go crazy naturally and maybe after eating you could do a fun active activity such putt putt, bowling, or whatever you prefer just as long as your doing something you enjoy :D

    Congratulations!!! Wow, it's hard to think of something that would top that in the way of buying something at the store! Excellent job! :) How about a trip or something you've been wanting to do?
