Whats your weight loss Splurge?
Hi ladies, and I can't forget about the guys..
What's your weight loss Splurge?
I have been on this diet kick for a year now, and I have lost 50+ pounds. Losing a few more after rejoining CC. I got 28 pounds to go. My goal weight is 145pounds. My Splurge goal is a very sexy outfit. Something very nice, with all the trimming. I mean from head to toe. I told my friend (Dee) that we need to get an Splurge goal going. I mean this is something you never could have or never would have pictured yourself wearing. I'm going for a hot look, that I would have never been able to pull of in the past. I want a pleated halter dress that ties behind the neck. (Black) If I can find it.. 2" heals, more of a sandal type deal..
Whats yours?
Reason: 4/14/08 set as sticky post for a week; 4/21/08 unstickied.
when at or near my goal, i want to buy some designer clothes. stella mc cartney or donna karan.
i have awarded myself for 34 pound lost this weekend-new trousers ("onlyů hennes+maurits-i do not want anything expensive as i will only wear them for months). got nice trousers that are just my current size and another pair of summer linen trousers that are one size smaller, to have motivation:) also today i bought nice summer shoes. funny, i was deciding between two pairs, tried the first one, and they were too wide!
Definitely a pair of sexay jeans. I'm a jeans fanatic, and get so sad when my old pairs stop fitting! I love Seven for all Mankind, True Religions, and Joe's Jeans, but I won't buy them unless I KNOW I can wear those puppies for a good long time. So as soon as I know I'm where I want to be for awhile, it's off to Neiman Marcus for me!

A two-day stay at a very expensive health spa :-)
gi-Jane, I love that name.. I watched that movie over and over againg, when I would hit my all time weight loss lows... Just to see her push herself to be better than those men, really drove me to get off of my (A). Anyway.. That health spa things is one of the best splurge I've heard of by far.. Never thought of giving myself a day at the spa.... That one is really great.. All of you have great ideas. Mines has always been one of those halter dresses, with no back fat... LOL
I promised myself that if I kept the weight off I would return. So I'm just checking out the diary and I am going to keep to my promise. Can highly recommend it.

I had that 2 day stay at Champneys Health Spa precisely 3 years ago when I lost my 3.5st (about 50lbs) and it was fantastic. So relaxing. Treatments, massage, aromatherapies. Everyone padding around the place in fluffy slippers and white towelling robes .... like a very stylish lunatic asylum :-)

Well, I think that is good. I'm going to see if this is something my girlfriends would like to do. I got a few who is really into the weight loss thing with me. I got one who just can't get herself on board, no matter what we all do to get her on track. I think Dee my bff will love this, even queen-another bff. I think we would enjoy a day at the spa.. Can't afford to do more, but i know we all can afford the one... Thanks for this great idea... I have to e mail the grils about this one.. I think this is the best one I've ever heard yet.. To treat yourself, your body with a day like this, is one of the best things you can do for all your hard work.
Thanks :)
im getting a louis vuitton danier canvas speedy 30.
ive been saving for it for a while, since i bought my last weight loss splurge, which was a little chiweenie puppy!
i like all the other suggestions though. for some reason i never thought of buying stuff i can actually wear =S. and the SPA!!! that is just genius.
Once I reach my goal weight, I am going to get the tattoo i've been waiting for.. that way I will HAVE to stay thin so it doesnt stretch out. Also, I'm going to buy a "little black dress" and maybe even a sexy swim suit!
I got to keep this one going.. This is a great way to motivate yourself.. Man.. I never thought of these things you all posted.. I think a belly ring is hot, and a great way to keep your size (abs) into check....
Tattoo--- Aha,moment for me.. I wish I could get one, but my skin disorder want let me have one..
That swimsuit is hot... Every one wants that great two piece.. I had one back in the day, didn't go over to well once I got out of shape..
Oh! And the little black dress. I loveeeeeee it... I mean really.. I have to have that black little dress. You can't go wrong with that when you have the legs to match the dress..
DO any of you like the Pencil Skirt. I want one of them so bad. The high wasit pencil skirt.

They wear skinny leg jeans in Europe so I know they're coming here soon (I'm in the sticks so I've got more time than you city folks)...I want be able to buy them and look hot!
Oh and skinny leg jeans have hit the streets already! I personally can't pull it off. My genetics would never let me. (thighs for miles) LOL!
I have a bunch of rewards built into my weight loss (see my bio for details) but the final 100lbs splurg is a trip to Hawaii (bikini included of course).
A bikini! My girlfriend and I have both decided to try to get into bikini shape in time to wear one at some point by the end of the summer :)
My mother and I have both been discussing for years to get my boobs fixed, and I told her that when I get to or past my goal weight, I want to get my boobs fixed. My problem is that when I was growing up, the dominant side of my body developed so much faster than my recessive side, and my breasts grew completely different. I'm no longer uncomfortable talking about it, although some of my close friends have razzed me about it since they learned of my DD and "almost C" problem.
I still haven't figured out what I like better... DD or C. I figure when I get down to size, both my breasts will be smaller, and I'll be happy with a pair of C's or D's in the end. An "almost C" on my current body looks like baby boobies, and a DD looks about right. But when I get smaller, who knows?
Okay well this was TMI, but at my goal weight, I want a boob job. And after that I'll think about the bikini, and maybe some trendy undies... like from Victoria's Secret or something.
