Okay, so I what are some of your goal rewards? I'm working out my goal rewards. I'm a week out from surgery now, and I just bought my first one. It was a combination of my weight loss and being strong though the process. I bought myself some goodies from Sephora!

I'm thinking of writing down all these different rewards, cutting each into a strip, and putting them in a "reward jar". When I reach a goal, I get to be treated to a good reward. The jar/vase angle helps it be a surprise. Except for my end goal reward, which is going to be a day of pampering! I'm going to spend the whole day at the day spa and treat myself to a new outfit top to shoes. I'm working on putting away money bit by bit to have this indulgent day.

I was never a reward with food person persay, but food was included on days that were good days. It was more like... I'm having a perfect day! I need a cupcake! It was more if I was happy I wanted to have food that I loved to add to the happiness. I've made great strides through this process so far, in breaking that train of thought, but I do believe that having these things as rewards for something that I've fought my whole life to do, are good rewards.

Ok.... ideas!? I know you guys have some great ones!

Groupons are a type of social coupon that offer good deals on events, trips, items, or services local to your city. They have most major cities listed. There are a couple of different ones. I subscribe to three for my city. You sign up to get the emails of the daily deals. There are time limits and sometimes limited quantities for sale at that price.
