Hey guyss! I'm curious to know what everyone's achievement rewards are. It's pretty good motivation. I tell myself not to buy any clothes until i lose more weight!

Here's my list

SW: 155
CW: 145ish
GW1: 140 - Reward: Get Eyelash Extensions
GW2: 130 - Reward: Buy a bag.
GW3: 125 - Reward: Shoes! + Eyelash Extensions again (before I go back to college)
GW4: 120 - Reward: Designer Jeans
I'm pretty sure it isn't possible-GW: 115 - Reward: Body-Con Dress
Ultimate Dream Weight: 110 - Reward: Shopping Spree!!

Tell me yours. :]

    For me every 1/4 of my weight lost I buy either another weapon or something similar. I need to lose 120 and when I hit 30 pounds lost I purchased the S&W M&P9 VTAC pistol.

    For my next 30 pounds I should lose it by the time a high intensity 3-day tactical carbine and pistol class rolls around at the beginning of October. The cost for that class and the ammo will equal the VTAC.

    I have not thought beyond the first 60 pounds.

    BUT- but- my goal weight goal is to get a custom made sandman costume from Logans Run- I have a working prop deep sleep pistol and follower. I would love to go to a sci-fi con dressed as a Sandman. I have a friend who works special effects pyro and he is willing to hook my wife up with a bursting charge so that she can be a runner at the con, I chase her, shoot her and she sort of explodes ala the movie...

    Also personally I dont like mini-goals or rewards- I prefer to work towards a big personal reward. :D

    If I could ever somehow get my thighs to stop touching, I would go out and buy myself some really nice jeans. :3 That's one of my biggest off-the-scale goals.
    Good luck!! =]

    I haven't even thought about this. I'm just rewarded by seeing my fat go away. I've HAD to buy new clothes, including belts because my clothes don't fit me anymore.

    I should set some goals though I'll have to think about that. :)

    I would just like to fit into my pre-pregnancy jeans again, size 2 I was 130 pounds. I loved it. If i get to my goal weight I'll sleep in them! lol BUT really, I would live to get to my mini goal of losing 10 pounds by end of aug, and gift myself new running shoes

    I didn't really have 'rewards' along the way because it was too expensive buying clothes that fit, workout clothes that fit, bras and sportsbras that fit, etc. Now I'm back into most of my old wardrobe (thank goodness!) so the expensive portion of this journey has calmed down considerably.

    When I hit goal though--hopefully in the next few weeks--I'm going to get a massage. ;)
  • swordsmith, that's very interesting! and congrats on the 30 lbs. That takes a lot of discipline!

    Allehp, yeah same for me! I think my thighs have touched all my life! When I they finally don't, I'll get some nice jeans too.

    nezeray, oh yeah, seeing the pounds drop motivates me a lot too. I'm incredibly happy whenever the number gets lower!

    Kriots, size 2 sounds like a dream, hopefully i fit into a size 2 by the end of this journey!

    Atlantique, good luck on getting to your goal! a few weeks, wow. I wish I were that near!
