Goals and rewards!
What are yalls goals? Do you have a reward for yourself when you get there? My main goal is 140 pounds. However my first goal is 160. I am currently at 214.5. My reward at 160 (if I can wait that long) is to get pregnant with baby #2. Then I have to lose it again. Not sure of a reward yet.
