    Hey guys!
    Hope everyone had a great weekend! If you haven't seen in previous threads; every now and again we like to start up a side conversation to keep up the engagement within our team 😊 We call it a Weekly Roundtable Discussion or WRD. The other day our Co-Captain Brandi asked the team a question and I've really been struggling to come up with a good answer. She wrote this;
    brandi_84 wrote: »
    Team TBBT - Do you have a reward for yourself for reaching your goal weight or for reaching milestones in your weight loss journey? Or is just getting there reward enough?
    So this week's WRD is, what is YOUR reward? And if you're like me and you just can't figure out a good one (that is not food related), I would like to challenge you to give this some thought and share anything that comes to mind. Here's to all having a great Monday!!

    My "reward" will be buying new clothes when I reach my goal weight, because I'll need them! I do agree that reaching my goal is reward enough. :smile:

    It’s a good question and one I’ve been thinking about. As of this morning, I’ve got under 4 pounds left to reach my goal weight. So what happens then? I’ve worked for so long to reach my goal, I’ve never thought beyond it. Do I immediately go into maintenance and see if I can keep it off? Or do I do some heavy weightlifting and try to change some of the “squishiness” that’s still there? (sadly, losing weight did not reveal hidden 6pk ab muscles)
    I know I won’t be buying new clothes or eating a big reward meal.
    So maybe it’s not about a reward as much as setting a new goal. Luckily at the rate I’m losing, I’ve got about a month to figure it out
