So I thought it would be interesting to see what some people have for rewards for being successful.

My first goal is to lose 5 pounds and my reward is: pedicure and new flip flops!

What are some of your rewards? :happy:

    My favorite pair of Levi's will finally fit me. You mean I get a reward other than a skinny @$$!

    40 lbs = Trip To Tokyo Japan. Not really, I'm going anyway to get married. I'd like to slim down for my tux though.

    45 lbs by the end of the year = buying a 2007 Harley Davidson Softail Duece.

    I am paying myself for the little things I do to put me towards my goal weight. I will earn this money, little by little, and pull the kitty, taking the money to do something for myself I normally wouldn’t allocate the funds for.

    $0.10 for having a happy day, smiling at others and being bright and encouraging
    $0.25 for every day I work out
    $0.25 for every day I drink 8+ glasses of water.
    $0.50 for every day I 'make' calories (within 100 +/-)
    $1.00 for every day I run (at least 5 min+)


    Still haven't decided what I'm doing with it, but so far in the past two weeks I've earned over $15. I'm happy with my progress.

    At what I have to lose, a reward every 5 pounds is too much....especially if it involves money. Right now, just watching my little running person move down the ticker is exciting!

    Actually, I do keep a spreadsheet. :blushing: I'm a dork, I :heart: spreadsheets. I like analyzing the data. I have it set up so I mark off which goals I've met each day and it tallies my daily earned, as well as my running total earned. :bigsmile:

    Once I get to 150 I'm going to finally buy a Polar F6! 4 more lbs! My reward for 145 I have already started receiving haha, I'm doing chemical peels & treating my acne so I can finally be a "full package" when I get to my goal weight. And my final goal weight is 135-140, we'll see what looks best when I get there. My reward for finally becoming half of my former self is having a night in a hotel suite & a tummy tuck! My consultation for my tummy tuck is in October so I better get going!!

    my reward will be looking in the mirror and not wanting to cry.

    New pair of shoes for my half way there mark..the good thing about shoes is they always fit...no matter what size I am.

    My real reward is to be looking good and fitting into my old pre-babies size 7 jeans by my next wedding anniversary June 20. I'm a size 13 now and I just joined MFP today so hopefully this is just the push I need.*fingerscrossed*

    my reward is seeing abs in the mirror. I have been denied my reward to a large degree, but I WILL HAVE IT! Like a retention bonus from a major corporation, I WILL have it. :laugh:
