Self Rewards

I'm currently halfway to 20lbs lost, but I've been lacking in the motivation lately. I'm thinking of making small rewards every 10-20lbs lost to help keep me going, such as getting my hair done or buying a new pair of shoes. And of course a BIG reward when I reach my end goal, like a beach vacation. :)

Does anyone else do this? What sort of self rewards keep you going?

    I stick with clothes and exercise equipment. I rarely wore dresses before but love them now so they are good rewards for me.

    The feeling of success every time my weight drops a little more is enough reward for me right now. :)

    DearestWinter, don't act like you dont got Papa Johns on the speed dial everytime you drop another dime. :-P

    And I always tend to procastinate when it comes to shaving. Especially since my job doesnt care if I'm clean shaven or not. Last time I shaved when I got below 220. and I told myself I wasn't going to shave again until I get below 200.... It's been a year.... and I have a freakin homeless man beard. :neutral:
