Do you have a reward for yourself when you hit goal?

I only have 25 lbs. to go before I hit my goal!! YEAH!!!!! :biggrin1: I really want to have a reward to look forward to when I get there. Of course my ultimate reward will be my hot new body!!!!! But......I need a little kick in the butt to get me back on track right now. I've stayed the same weight for 2 months. :guess

For those who hit goal, did you have a reward? If so, what?

For those still pluggin' along, have you set a goal once you get there? If so, what is it?

For those who haven't set a goal, let's brainstorm!!!

I was seriously considering getting myself a Full Day at the Spa when I hit goal. I went to a Spa place yesterday to get some information & was floored at the $500/day deal. Is this a normal price? I just may have to mark that off my list or get a part-time job! HA!

Now I'm re-thinking my reward. I need a carrot dangled in front of me & I don't know what that carrot should be!! The only thing I won't put on the list is new clothes because I'm going to buy those anyway!!! :eek:

Any and ALL ideas are appreciated.

For years I always said that I wanted to go to Greece. So when I started with this I said to myself that I would go when I reach 100lbs lost. I'm already 1/2 way there I reach 50lbs this past week. So I'm actually excited maybe by next year I would be in one of the greek beaches with a greek man right next to me. Its kind of a little expensive idea but Well I got to treat myself somehow, working two jobs got to the gym 5 times a week. I'm tired. So that's my little motivation.

Diane you are so crazy. I live close to the ocean and my hubby works for a large oil firm, let me see if I can get him to see if he can swing one of the oil rigs to bar b q for us in the ocean and honey they have helicopters to fly us back and forth with and my ex has a motor home that looks like that so let me ask his wife if we can use it to pick everyone up with and we will have it made in the shade.:eek:

I only have 25 lbs. to go before I hit my goal!! YEAH!!!!!

WOW, Diane! Congrats! I'm really happy for you!

Now, I'm way too far from even deciding on what my goal even is, but if I ever get there I'm gonna party like its 1999!!! Ha Ha

WHen I hit my first goal...having the proceedure done in the first place...I bought myself a pair of expensive shoes I'd been eyeing for a while.

After I met my first weight goal, I bought myself a flat panel TV!

When I meet my second goal (in about 18 lbs), I'm going on a $500 shopping spree for new clothes (and having a tag sale for the stuff that's too big for me.

When I meet my final goal, I am going to spend money hiring a trainer to help me train for the NYC marathon...my goal is to run it in 2008!

Once I hit my goal, I hope to have my plastic surgery money some what saved up lol.

Other than that My hubby and I will be married 13 years next march and have never had a real wedding So I hope to do that... We got married so young we could not afford it still cant but I hope to LOL

Nana~

oh bunny we are doing the same thing. in a real wedding dress, just our kids and immediate family. And of course...ed. our best man and godfather to our kids. we go nowhere without him. he has been part of our family since college.

Diane...you are too freakin funny!!! If I am correct that is a hotel in fiji right?

When I reach goal I want to go on a trip because I want to finally, for the 1st time in my life, wear a swim suit, or shorts without having to feel self consicious.

Funny - yep, I believe that place is in Figi. Wouldn't that be a place to die for?!? I would be in heaven.

Wheetsin - If you really go to Figi, I'm so jealous!!!!!!!!!

Okay, so there's no BBQ. But, we can dream!!! ;)

Now, about that reward...... I'm still thinking about it. You guys have some great ideas here. I still wish I had started a money jar a year ago!

WOW, where is that place, I wanna go there on my honeymoon!!! My boyfriend walked in as I was watching the slideshow and I had to explain what was going on, lol. I was laughing at loud.

We want to take the whole family on a holiday to Fiji next year for my 40th - its pretty cheap and easy to access from Australia. A few weeks on a tropical island, bliss.

Well I always wanted to go on a cruise threw the Panama canal....LOL but, Hubby doesnt have his citizenship yet so I am thinking Alaska it will be!!!
