What are you going to reward yourself with?

When you reach your goal, or maybe your half way point, do you plan on rewarding yourself at all? Maybe with a new outfit or something. When I lose 5lbs I'm going to reward myself with a haircut. And when I reach my final goal I'm going to get my belly button pierced. What are you all rewarding yourselves with?

-Adrea

I've told myself i can buy a wii and wii fit once i've lost 10lbs. I really want one now but it's pretty good motivation!

A new tattoo in 21 more pounds. A custom corset when I meet my final goal weight in another 15-19 pounds after that.

Hey, you asked.

Other than that, I have to pretty much get a new wardrobe, though I'm in this interim stage halfway through my weight loss where I find myself looking at every article of clothing I consider buying and gauging how many pounds it will last me for.

Designer clothes! London, Paris and Milan, here I come!

new jeans!!! the $200 pair! yahooo

-just need to drop 2 pounds! (and stay there..)

A new tattoo and piercing. I am going to get nautical stars across my collar bones and a small piercing (curved barbell) right below that little divet where your collar bones meet beneath your throat.

and then more tattoos.

and new clothing.

This will probably sound stupid but sexy photos.... Not playboy (ew) but like sexy black and whites like 1930's actress style.

And of course a bad ass little black dress. Complete with the stilletos (hey, Im 5'1, so I need then anyway lol)

oh and for Delilah87~Wii Fit is awesome, you will definitely LOVE it :)

For my June 1st goal, it'll be a new prom dress rather than reusing my one from last year (which will hopefully be too big for me by then!), and my first 2-piece swimsuit ever [other than a tankini]. For my mid-August goal, it'll be a massive clothes shopping spree.

I havn't really thought about my reward, I'm just focusing all my time and energy on losing weight.. but for what?? Good question.

Maybe a new bikini to strut around in. ha ha

Romiga, those photos sound absolutely fantastic. I'd love to have something like that. It's something to think about. :)

Thats great that you guys all have different things you're rewarding yourselves with. :]

Hair cut and colour for me. I figure I have to try going blonde whle I'm young enough to pull it off.

on the 1st january 2009 - a big slice of chocolate cake - to celebrate losing 43lbs in 2008
when I reach my goal weight (another 35lbs to go) -  a corset and some piercing

I'm going to buy a pair of sevens for all mankind jeans. That, and be a better person, and wear less black, stop wearing all t-shirts and jeans. Branch out. Pants, dresses, skirts, oh my!

i'd like to say i'm gonna get me a bikini (b/c i've never worn one in my whole life!), but seeing as how i've got loose skin and am only gonna get more as i lose the rest of this weight, that probably won't be a good look. so maybe i'll just get my first strapless dress. that would be amazing. i'd love to be that girl in the cute strapless spring/summer dress. i've always wanted that!

I want to loose 80lbs by Nov1 2009. My friend is getting married and I am the maid of honor...talk about motivating reasons. But when I loose 40 I am going to buy myself a Ed Hardy Wallet and when I hit 80lbs, I am going to buy myself and Ed Hardy purse!

By spring l would have lost half of my goal which is another 22lbs, l will buy a few nice outfits to show off the new figure and when l reach my goal in the summer, l am going for a major shopping spree.

dreadfulpenny, l am right there with you, l didnt even shop for clothing or shoes for myself throughout this holiday period. Cuz l'm thinking 'how long will l wear that for?

I think about this a lot. :)

I have a lot of weight to lose, so when I hit 100 pounds down (86 more to go), I'm going to treat myself to a makeover and spa visit, and also start taking Kempo lessons. I've always wanted to study martial arts, but I'm so big and unhealthy that I'm too embarrased about myself right now to join.

When I hit my ultimate weight (another 40-50 pounds), I'm going to splurge on a complete new wardrobe and look up some of my old friends who've only known me as a fat girl. Imagining their surprise at seeing me slimmed down has been great motivation.

When I reach my goal (40 pounds to go... 109 lost) I will get a tummy tuck! I absolutley cannot wait to get rid of the excess skin apron!!!

Expensive reward but totally worth it I recon.

A military enlistment contract.
