I am at 85.5 lbs and when I hit 100 I am going to the jewelry store to treat myself to something sparkly

I'm still not quite to 80lbs, but I figure F it! I'm going out tonight looking at a new 4KUHD television. That's my reward!8

Hit my all-time low weight this morning. 180# lost since surgery. My girlfriend is buying me/us a at home blood pressure monitor from Costco. Not the sexiest reward but one we're sure to use for years!10

I just bought myself a new car. Sort of as a reward I guess... I had been hanging on to the 15 year old Jetta I was driving until a friend said, "Dale, that car is the OLD you, let it go already." He was right. So I did I think for many of us who have been morbidly obese for a long time, learning to reward or treat ourselves is very important. I think part of the reason we were where we were is because we didn't always feel deserving of more or better, but we totally are deserving! 12

Me too!! I am going to when I get under 2502 -
We just booked a trip to Maui with family in late June. In 2004, we celebrated our honeymoon there. If I can stick to my plan, there is a good chance I'll be back to my honeymoon weight (210ish) by the time we go on this trip. It would be great to reward myself by wearing the couple of pieces of clothing from my honeymoon I wasn't able to part with over the years. If I really work hard (and my body cooperates) maybe I can celebrate this reward in onederland.9

After losing the weight I gained when I was ill for a few months late last year (and keeping it off since then), my girlfriend treated me to a new tattoo. It's the "Hulk", in Lego form in case anyone was wondering!

I do new clothes and makeup. I also traveled solo to the Caribbean. Next month I'm going back to the Caribbean to hike and do the longest zipline in the world!8

Over the weekend I picked out my reward for 100 lbs lost...have a few more pounds to go (as of 2 weeks ago it was 87.3 lost and weighing in Saturday after traveling, the flu and some not such great choices but hopefully I have corrected myself so it won't be too terrible no matter which way I went on the scale)
Here's a pic of my reward which I put on layaway so I know it is mine but I still need to work for it, and some of my good choices and one not so great choice though I didn't eat the whole thing of anything I ate...

@jcavanna2 That's beautiful! Good pick and congrats! Also that meal looks amazing! I picked up my 100 lb reward last night, a pendant that matches a ring and earrings I got as a graduation gift years ago.

My bf said if I lost 50lbs pre op he would buy me any fitness tracker I wanted. Last Friday my garmin vivosmart hr+ arrived and I'm loving it.

@AllisonMart that is gorgeous!!! Congratulations!1

I've been using food for a reward system for so long that I wouldn't know what to get myself, lol. I really like the mani/pedi idea and I've been wanting a Fitbit, so I think that's a good reward. 0
-
@Mandy_1982 those are great rewards and I also use the mani/pedi as a reward as well. It's so important to reward ourselves along the way to keep us motivated 1

As a reward for getting under 200lbs (and staying there for a month) Tomorrow I'll be getting another tattoo this one on my right arm. It's going to be "Banana Man" in Lego form. I love eating bananas and my stomach is the size of one now! Never in my wildest dreams did I think I could achieve this level of health when I weighed 4bills!5

I was thinking of getting a tattoo as a reward, but now I am thinking of a good pair of wireless headphones for working out. Any recommendations? I will probably still get another tattoo though 3

@garber6th I just got some new one's on Amazon called Senso. They have a long life and good sound.1

Invest in a good set of workout headphones. I prefer earbuds. Here's why.
(1) I have a sweat proof set with a great inner ear piece. They stay in my ears lifting weights and running. They never fall out.
(2) If I'm outside, I like to know who and what's going on around me. Crossing streets and people coming up behind me. Safety first
(3) At the gym I keep both buds in. It tells people to not approach you while you are working out.
Not plugging a brand or store to shop:
I am seriously hard on headphones. I've been through several pair. Best buy has a warranty plan. If they are not a good fit, sound quality or if they break. You can return them, exchange or upgrade.

Thanks so much!! I was definitely leaning towards ear buds for the reasons you shared, and I will definitely check out Best Buy!1 -
So I still plan to get some wireless earbuds, but in the meantime I rewarded myself with something else - Coffee is my vice, almond milk lattes in particular, so I bought a Nespresso with a frother. So tasty and it's about 15 calories. If you are a coffee lover, Nespresso is worth checking out.5

that little cream frother is amazing1
