What's your big reward?



Recommended Posts

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?

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.

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!

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 :)

      Two months out from hiatal hernia repair.  Surgeon said to expect a lot more flatulence...something about the 'air' no longer being able to 'burp' out so comes out the other end.  That is my experience but have no understanding of why that swallowed air cannot be 'burped'. ???

        As I understand it since your stomach is smaller and not completely resting against your diaphragm anymore you no longer have the ability to "push" burps out as well. Plus, since its smaller and we don't digest slower the trapped air moves a lot quicker out of the stomach so its no longer available to burp out. Hence the other option for removal.

      Anyone had the TORe procedure? How did it go? How much weight did you loose?

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

        Your so close now! It's gonna be great :) Wishing you a speedy recovery and looking forward to seeing how it goes!

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!
