Second 5 kilos, I will get new speakers for my phone which will motivate me even more with music. Next, I need some new sport leggings and tops. Then a spa day or tattoo, haven't quite decided yet. And finally, hitting my target weight I'll get a mirrored door big wardrobe which i used to own before and loved (before I got divorced and got big)
I really like the idea of an incremental reward that isn't food related. Maybe I'll start doing that too!5 -

Don't worry- you'll get there!!! Back when I weighed nearly 300 lbs, I never thought I would see the day when I could get back into some clothes I can now. And I'm SO looking forward to buying new stuff. I can do it--- YOU CAN DO IT

I decided when I was coming up on my first goal that my "rewards" would be jewelry. I bought myself earrings when I got below 200. My next goal is 170, then 162, and finally 140.
Why jewelry? It's something I can wear consistently, it's pretty, durable, and less likely to go out of style. It's also portable
Very good idea! I was wondering what to reward myself with incrementally and it was a toss up between several things. I can't really do Oddities, since that's been a hobby for years. But jewelry? Sure can! Think I will start that goal this next 10

I have 12 more lbs to lose until I reach my goal of losing 100lbs!
Once I hit that I am getting my loose skin on my tummy taken care of!

I want to take a horseback riding lesson. I am afraid I am too out of shape and heavy and that's not fair to the horses. I also don't want to be the only one to get a "Special" horse that could handle my weight, you know?
For some of the milestone loss amounts hit, I bought myself new funny workout tanks to put into my rotation.10 -
In my case it is simple. I have birthday this summer and I already decided to rent property in France https://tranio.com/rent/france/ on the beach Which means that my body has to look fit and perfect. I want to have amazing photos. 5

When I’m done, I’m finally going to be able to walk in to a store and not worry thay they might not have sizes that fit. 15 kilos down I can buy hoodies just about anywhere now but some are still a bit too tight, jeans still a long way to go but god damnit I’m going to buy some soon.6

I am 43 lbs from goal but have lost 151 lbs so far. Once I reach goal I want to have my wedding rings resized so I can wear them without the fear of losing them.

I bought myself a new watch for every 25 lbs lost... and the big event is that my dad promised when I’m under the weight restrictions he’d pay for me and anyone else in the family who wants to join me to go skydiving, which is kind of a life long dream of mine. The caveat is I have to sustain it for an undefined period of time (which we lovingly argue about). I actually got under the 230 restriction in Jan 2017 for about a week and then slowly stared gaining back about 40 lbs, but I’m back on the right track now and as determined as ever to get that dream fulfilled!7

Skydiving sounds amazing!! And so nice of your dad.
When I reach my goal weight, I’m treating myself to a shopping spree.

That’s so sweet of your dad! (And lol at the arguing how long).
I need to come up with some treats for the final 10kg!5 -
For me it is having another baby. I wanted to hit my goal weight before getting pregnant again. And this time I will manage my weight better so I won't have so much to lose once the baby is born.14

A new handbag!!!5

Wow! So many inspirational ideas! I'm especially glad to see the rewards don't include food in most cases. I think for me, food had been a reward. So I look at using it as a smoker rewarding themselves for not smoking for 10 days by having a ciggy. Rewarding with food seems kind of like that.
I had to make a decision this year for December. Anniversary dinner out or Christmas dinner out. I opted for the anniversary dinner out. My husband is a candidate for "Worst Cooks in America" which explains why he isn't cooking lol.
Plus I wanted some Peking Duck, something I cannot make myself and have not had in years. Already checked with the place, they can limit back the salt and will replace the option of white rice with brown. Nice!5 -
I'm going to buy boots. Really good, expensive, calf length boots.
