    I'm rewarding myself with Pandora charms. Every time I lose weight, I give myself $5 towards my next charm.

    I rewarded myself with a holiday when I reached goal weight (and only gained a lb - yay!)

    I believe non-food rewards are really motivating.

    I'm aiming for a pedicure/manicure once I get to 160 pounds.

    Not sure what my next mini-goal will be.

    I reward myself with sneakers every few months, too, if I've been good about getting to the gym. There's nothing like a new pair of sneakers... I love watching them when I workout!*LOL*

    Yes! Definitely. Incentives are nice and help. I don't reward myself with food, but instead cute workout bras, clothes, or something totally irrelevant to weight loss: like a new clutch bag or makeup.

    I'm adding charms to a bracelet for each 10kg that I've lost (although I haven't bought the second one yet).
    And I've had to buy new clothes because my old ones don't fit, although that is more about needing to be dressed than a specific weight loss target.

    I loooove this idea!!!

    I have a wish list at a couple of my favorite stores online and all the clothes are in smaller sizes so when I hit certain points I will go to the list and buy 1 or 2 things. But being able to look at the list of all those cute things that I can't wear yet is a big motivator!

    I just bought myself a new pair of running shoes - Vibram 5 Fingers, the Bikila LS - to celebrate losing 75lbs. Ran in them last night for the first time and got a blister. LOL!

    When I reach my goal I'm going to get my chest tattooed, since I won't be embarrassed to show it off anymore :smile:

    When I get to my goal weight I'm taking a vacation with my boyfriend (probably around my July birthday) to the beach somewhere. We live in the middle of Iowa- he wants to go to California, but we have some friends who would road trip to Florida with us. We'll decide that later. I'm just excited to be comfortable in a bikini for the first time in my life :) We are broke college students so I can't really buy something every time I lose weight. Wish I could....

    I plan on small rewards after each loss of 10 lbs, my final goal after all of the weight is off is a new wardrobe, I told my husband to start saving now! I want a $5,000 pre-paid debit card like on "What Not to Wear". :bigsmile:

    Lol! I wish :)

    I decided to stay away from food rewards, because I don't want to be counter-productive, and no clothes rewards, because I want to buy those at the end. here are mine

    10- fish to keep my sucker fish company
    20- better headphones
    30- getting hair layered
    40- Heavy Rain
    50- first tattoo!
    60+ haven't thought of it.

    I reward myself with Pandora beads.........This was if i am having an off day I just look at my bracelet and it gives me the motivation. probably a little mind over matter but what ever it takes..........First I rewarded myself for every 5 pounds now it is every 10 and eventually it will be at 25 lbs since they can be expensive. But another thing about buying the beads is it makes it very personal and i buy charms or beads relevant to something else like my grandchildren or my hubby or even inspirational ones. It is something I will have along with my life long journey........So when you choose to reward yourself (and you deserve to) think of something you actually love and will have forever. good luck in your journey............

    I'm thinking of buying a shirt from Boomslank.com. just because, when i reach 135, i'll be smaller, so hopefully the shirt would look better lol. also considering a small winged quote tatooed at the base of my spine. not a tramp stamp, more like a small space of skin just at the base.
