Hello everyone I was banded August 12 at 9:00 and it was by far the best decision I've ever made in my 21 years of living roughly 2 weeks before my surgery me and my boyfriend went on a weekend getaway to Charleston, S.C on that trip I went shopping and bought a dress that was purposely 3 sizes too small and I promised myself that when I lose 50 pounds I'll go on another weekend getaway and wear that same dress and on that getaway I'll buy something that I can wear or use on my next goal....Well today is my day I leave tonight to Atlanta Georgia to a Tyler Perry play with my sister! I'm 4 pounds away from my first 50 pound goal but CLOSE ENOUGH!.... I LOVE YOU ALL and I'll post pictures of me and the dress tonight before the play. What's your goals and rewards?

I have goals but no set rewards. You have me thinking now.

Congratulations!

Clothes have definitely become my reward. I have a definite shopping addiction these days lol.

Great idea! You're going to look great in your dress -- have a blast!

Wow!! That's incredible. I love that idea. Continued success to u.

My reward won't come until I've reached my final goal...I'm treating myself to a huge Gucci handbag and wallet.

Going on a New Year's Eve cruise this year and working towards losing 40 lbs.and buying a FABULOUS new dress that will knock my husband's socks off!

It worked for me. I bought a really loud pair of pants at Kohl 80% rack that was 3 sizes too small. Made the decision when I can fit into them, people are going to notice, even if it is for the colors. (And I'm almost there....)

Great job! My reward has always been smaller jeans staring at me in the closet saying "WEAR ME!" I used to keep 2 or 3 sizes at a time, but now it's just 1 size. Actually, I don't have any smaller anymore since I finally fit into my goal size. For some reason, the jean size has always meant the most to me, so smaller jeans was plenty enough of a reward. Congrats and keep up the great work!

Mine will be at my first 50lbs down, a trip home to Dublin, Ireland it's been a while since i went as the last time i flew i was stuck in a tool small a seat and was so miserable for the entire 9 hr flight.. this time i'm going to have room to spare.. Congrats on that dress BTW...

congrats to you who is just as beautiful as these roses i put on here for you

and to answer your question..my goal is better health and my reward is being able to walk......

My first reward was a new car...my 2nd will be a trip to Vegas...after that...sky's the limit baby!

I want my goal when I lose 20 more pounds to be an outfit from Victorias secret that actually fits!!

When I finally reach my goal my reward will be plastic surgery.

Prior to that...I've got 2 months to hit 1-derland for a trip to Mexico and I'm hoping for another 30 dropped before my hubby returns home or deployment...seeing his face light up is a fantastic reward!

That's such an awesome idea!! Congrats on your great success!
