Do you reward yourself for hitting mini goal weights?

And if so, what have you rewarded yourself with/planning to reward yourself with.
I'm looking for inspiration outside of my usual new clothes.

    I give myself a pat on the back, but that's about it. I think I'd be too tempted to turn to food as a reward if I started thinking along those lines.

    No, it is reward enough for achieving my mini goals.
    Had one this morning. -35 pounds reached in 17 weeks. 1/2 way to goal weight.

    My goal is 10 pounds every month and if I reach them then I get my nails done or hair or go shopping:)

    Yes, typically workout clothing or gear. Never food-related.

    I log it, give myself a pat on the back for a job well done, and move on.

    I have a major reward lined up for once I've reached my goal and maintained for 2 years (eye surgery) and I anyhow need to save up for that. But I don't have mini-goal rewards.

    No rewards for mini goals, however, as I lost weight, I began to be able to do more and that was a reward. :)

    Sure and looking and feeling better as well as being healthier is what I reward myself with. It is great. As for food or stuff? Nope, that isn't why I am doing this.

    Nope. It brightens my day but that's it.

    Here are my goals I've set for myself. I rarely do anything for myself (it's always about my kids and husband) so I find this gives me something to look forward to. I'm aiming to lose 50-55 pounds:

    10 pounds - massage (I have a gift card)
    20 pounds - facial
    30 pounds - massage, facial & hair highlight
    40 pounds - subscription to Stitch Fix for a couple boxes of new clothes
    50? - I imagine I'll buy myself some new clothes

    I've bought the odd thing when hitting a goal, but don't plan ahead. Maybe I should? Having trouble breaking 240.

    And don't worry about what others do beyond curiosity. Do what works for you, if that's a reward for a mini-goal, then great. Enjoy.

    Sure and why not? It is its own reward but its also nice to treat myself to something as a atta girl.

    Lately I've been eyeing a Herschel Supply Co. bag but I haven't found a way to justify it just yet (since I have one lol)
    My recent purchases:
    Android box & keyboard
    FitBit strap replacement that's super cute
    Sugar Free Syrup
    Tacky mug for my tacky mug collection
    Belt for my fave jeans (broke my last one)
    Water bottle

    I need ideas too lol

    Not for my 5 lb mini-goals, but I do for milestones. For hitting -100 lbs I bought a stained glass table lamp; something I fell in love with but would never have normally bought.
