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 a while now, I've really wanted to get another tatoo, and I've been thinking that when I reach my goal I would get a new tatoo. Then I would never forget how far I've come, and how hard I've worked to get where I am.

I also like the idea one of you had about a promise ring, something I would wear all the time, to remind me of what I've accomplished.

I am newly banded and a LONG way from my goal, but my husband and parents are each pledging me $5 for every pound I lose, so that when I reach my goal, I can reward myself and go on a shopping spree! What motivation! I have a really pretty jar that we put in the kitchen, and each month we will put the cold hard cash in the jar for ME! This helps in the replacement cost of all the new clothes I will need!

My reward is going to be a new wardrobe (after I donate my old clothing). A bikini and a trip to the carribean!

I Love The Idea Of Putting Money In A Jar For Every Pound And For Working Out. I Won't Be At My Goal By July, I Hope To Be Down A Total Of 90 Lbs, For We Are Having A Family Reunion And I Want To Surprise All My Family Who Seen Me Last Yr Still Big. Then, When I Do Get To My Goal I Want To Take Atrip. Maybe Two, One With My Grandchildren To Walt Disney World So We Can Walk All Over And I Will Feel Geat! Then A Cruise Somewhere. Sure Makes A Person Feel Great Just Thinking About It.

When I hit 60lbs I bought myself a 30 gig IPOD. I figured since I spend so much time at the gym the IPOD was well worth the investment.

I'm looking foward to meeting my goal of 120 - 150lbs lost, who knows how I'll reward myself then. I'm sure I'll come up w/ something. I think the $ jar is an excellent idea. I'm going to start mine today.

I want to ride a horse!! I've never ridden a horse for fear of hurting the horse, but its something I have always wanted to do...and I will someday!!

As a defense mechanism, I always tell people I'm to scared...but thats not the case at all...*heavy sigh*

I plan on going on a week long hiking trip all by my lonesome, with one of my dogs. I may go to Arkansas or even North Carolina. Another goal is to finish a triathlon when getting close to goal. My other half is already going to give me $500 for clothes, so I'm treating myself to something I could never do before the lap band.
