How do sleever's celebrate success

Once your goal is reached or for those who have met their weight loss objective, how do you plan to Celebrate this major accomplishment in your life. Some may shop for new clothes, while others might decide to paint the town, and some possibly may rejoice at home with family.

What are your plans to commemorate your success?

My sister and I are going to take our young daughters and spend a week in Hilton Head on the beach! I can already feel the sun and I have not even had my surgery yet!

I think I celebrated through my entire losing stage. I didn't do anything spectacular once I hit goal. I continued to lose below goal, and just kept shopping LOL.

For me, I knew a trip, cruise, any extended plans would be screwed by 'the nature of the beast' we live with life as a military family so I celebrated every tiny victory along the way.

I think I celebrated through my entire losing stage. I didn't do anything spectacular once I hit goal. I continued to lose below goal, and just kept shopping LOL.

That's pretty much what I'm doing too. I'm a few pounds shy of 50 total now and I plan on buying myself a 40th anniversay Disney World Dooney & Burke wallet. At 75 lbs down I'm going to get the purse that matches. At 100 who knows LOL we'll see what I'm really wanting when I get closer ;) I think at 25 lbs down I just bought myself one new bra at Walmart.

I am going to finally get family portraits on the beach. While in FL, I want to take my kids to Dsney and have the energy to run everywhere with them and feel comfortable fitting in all the rides. We have a local theme park here and I it was my son's first time riding particular type of ride. He was a little scared and wanted me to ride with him. Well.......I couldn't fit. After waiting in line, I was absolutely mortified and cried the entire time I stood watching my brave little man riding by himself. That was THE moment I knew without a shadow of a doubt I was turning my life around. I fully anticipate going back to that very ride and conquering it just to prove to myself that I can.

Didnt mean to get into all that......but I will DEFINITELY be doing some serious shopping and backyard pool parties. :-)

I'm with Tiff, I am celebrating as I lose, especially doing things that I no longer could because I was to uncomfortable or out of breath to do.

Lifes to short to wait for a date to celebrate, celebrate as you're along the journey.

Well a vacation is going to happen. Can't wait to get in that airplane seat without haveing to squeeze and suck in my gut just to fasten the seat belt. Dare I say, even cross my legs! :lol:

First I will do a dance of joy! When I hit the hundred pound mark (5 pounds to go) I am going to announce that loss on FB and post a picture of myself. My general friends do not know about this at all, they will be shocked!

When I hit 145 I am going to go shopping galore! Book a cruise and spend a week in Key West where I will were shorts for the first time in all the years I have been going there. ( have always worn capris). I will by a tshirt in a size Medium in a womans color for once! Maybe even a tank.top depending on how my arms look.

I Celebrate every little thing... nothing major or specific - but I'm constantly buying new clothes and getting myself little congratulatory gifts. I chalk it up as... cool I'm down 120 Lbs so I deserve this, LOL!!! I'm trying *not* to become a shopping addict though. Doing my best anyway!

I am also going to go on a major shopping spree once I do hit goal. I have been putting away money here and there and got a lot of gift cards to clothing stores for anniversary, birthday, christmas. They are waiting for the big one. ;)
