Non-Food Rewards


Quote  |  Reply

What are folks doing to keep motivated?

I weigh myself every day.  When I'm below 150 for three consecutive days (probably in another week or two) I will go get a mani/pedi.  I'm thinking of rewards for the 145 mark and the 140 mark!

I set up reward points on my profile.  The gap between gets smaller and smaller because as I get closer to my goal, it will take longer to lose the pounds I expect.  I don't choose the reward until I get within a few pounds of my goal as my needs / wants change.

My first reward was a food reward because there was a new restaurant in town, but it had many healthy options so it was okay.

My second reward (4 lbs away) - I have picked out a shirt at the gym that I really like by Lole.  I just hope it doesn't sell before I get there.... :)

I'm getting a new piercing once I hit my goal weight. It's keeping me motivated!

Good idea mkerdmann.  I've been thinking about getting a new tattoo or expanding my current one.  I'll save that for my goal weight!

I'm going to get an eyebrow piercing! And a pair of grey skinny jeans:)
A new tattoo!

Clothes!  Always clothes.

Pretty panties for every 10 pounds a new bras for every 20 pounds.

Bought a groupon for a spa, massage, body wrap, facial.  Can't use it til I lose 7.5 more pounds.
