Is anyone else rewarding themselves when they reach goal? I am going on a cruise!!! As if the reward of a new healthier me isnt enough....a new healthy me sitting on a ship in the carribbean is even better!!!

What's waiting for you when you reach goal?

Tiffany's necklace or bracelet BABY

Both my husband and I got banded this year, so next summer we would like to go to Punta Cana in the Dominican Republic.

I have several mini-rewards set up. I got this idea from someone on this forum. For each 10 pounds of weight loss, I will reward myself with a charm to add to a new charm bracelet that I'll get at the beginning of my surgery month (Dec 2011). If I meet my goal, I'll have 13 charms on my bracelet, each one representing something I want to do...such as the Eiffel tower to represent a trip to Paris, or a pair of skis to represent the next time I ski again with friends, palm tree to reflect my desire to go to Figi or Tahiti, a bicycle to represent a long desire to take a bicycle tour through Tuscany. Of course my big reward will manifest itself as actually doing one of these activities. I look forward to the entire journey, not just the end. I wish each of us good luck on our new journey and exciting new lives.

I will be taking a cruise to Bermuda with my hubby and begin trying for baby #2. I've decided I will not have another child until I get this weight off. I had complications with baby #1 and I want this time around to be better. I was banded Oct. 10, so I'm still in the healing stage, but I can't wait to get started on dropping this weight forever!!!!!

A trip to Europe. I want to be able to be comfortable and walk and do all the things I can as a healthy, normal bmi person. Also playing a whole baseball game with my grandsons. Grandma is tired of sitting out the family games.

The life I get to live now is reward enough for me!

I would really like to go on a cruise. I'd like to have a baby more. My surgeon still wants me to loose a bit more weight first. I guess I can always go on a disney cruise if I have a baby!

a pair of True Religion skinny jeans and some Jimmy Choos!

Cruise for me, December 4th, cant wait

Have a baby and a trip to Jamaica! Hopefully not in that order :-)

I bought a Harley!

Losing weight + midlife crisis = 2007 HD Sportster 1200 XL

I bought a new car the other day partly as a reward for surpassing my half way point to my ultimate goal

I'm getting a Pandora charm bracelet for my surgery and will add a charm or bead for each 20 lb milestone.

I told myself once I lost 50 pounds, I would buy a new pair of cowgirl boots (still trying to find the exact pair that I want). Once I reach my goal (or within 20 pounds of it), we are going to start trying to have a baby. I want a baby so bad, but we haven't really tried, because I always worried that my pregnancy would be risky with all of this weight. Congrats to all!!!! Such an exciting journey

I plan to buy my dream car within 3 years, which is a Corvette!! Not a new of course, but one that's 4-5 years old will be just fine with me. That's also going to be my mid-40's present to myself and you gotta look good if you're going to own a vette!!! LOL
