First I emptied my closet 2 days ago, literally empty. So today I decide to go rent a bike and take a bike ride to see how that feels since it has been over 20 years since I had been on one. I LOVED IT!!!!!!! I went 7 miles! Trouble is when I got back to the bike place I rewarded myself with a 400.00 bike! I said what the H E double tooth picks,, this is my reward for 96 pounds gone!

Oh I am loving this... new clothes and a new bike... Seriously, life can't get much better... well done you!! =]

Wow!!!

I cant wait till it my turn

Wow!!!

I cant wait till it my turn

FANTASTIC!! What a great thing to spend on though... YOU DESERVE IT!!!

Good for you, you did something great for yourself. I was thinking about buying a bike but in another 40 pounds. For now, I just bought a new shirt in Kohl's (on sale) without having to stretch it out with my hands so the biggest size they had would fit. We all should reward ourselves.

What better way to reward yourself then with something that will only aid in losing more and keeping off the weight you already lost?!? I think it's a great idea, gonna have to convince the husband of that too once I reach 100 lbs lost

wow that is an awesome story. I am hoping to get a bike for christmas and ride the wheeels off of it when spring and summer come...That was an awesome reward though..

Haha you sound like me. Hey it's an investment in you and your health! And sounds like a lot of fun. Good for you!!

Congratulations! You deserve it!

I wish bikes didn't hurt my back. It looks like fun!

I was just thinking the same thing. I already have a purse and shoe addiction so add that to shopping for other things and I'm gonna blow thru my savings in a year! But you getting the bike could be seen as exercise equipment so don't even worry bout it.

Such a smart person! and a very clever idea congratulations on all the pounds u dropped, I wish all of us reach the goals set for ourselves

AWESOME!!! OMGOSH you are almost at your 100 weight loss yayyyyy!

Expensive, maybe. Awesome, definately! Congrats!

Great idea! I, too, have thought of that reward in time. I just had my surgery Friday so I'm not quite in the market. I live near our bike trails and used to love to ride, although HILLS are the name of the game here! Might I ask you what kind of bike you got? Details! And congratulations!

I got a Releigh 21 speed with front and seat suspension, I had them add an odometer { who knew they are digital now?} and a swivel mirror.
