The biggest reward for me is the constant compliments....It has been a very long time since I have had a compliment on my appearance and once they started to come, with all my hard work, it felt so rewarding.

Also, we usually take a vacation in January but can't this new year because of work we have scheduled in the restaurant so instead we are staying at the Four Seasons Yorkville in Toronto for 3 nights over Christmas when we go to visit family and friends.....this is kind of a reward too since it is hugely extravagant on our part....can't wait!

Clothes, clothes, clothes. I go shopping every 2 weeks right now. I am down 2 sizes on the bottom and 3 on the top since June. I am also going to a dermatologist to have some work done on my sun damage. We'll see how well my skins turns out.

I bought myself a walkman CD player for 50 lbs. I get audio books on CD from the library and just get lost in a book while walking. I am almost at 75 lbs (5 months!) and I've been thinking about it. It's fun wondering what I should reward myself with.

I have all ready set up some goals and rewards for myself. For 20 lbs it will be a manicure/ pedicure. For 40 lbs a facial. For 60 lbs a theater show. For 80 lbs a massage and for 100lbs a trip either to Disney world or some tropical local. I'm hoping all these self indulgent rewards will motivate me during the rough times.

Okay, I will start by saying I'm a 48 year old, educated and for the most part, demure woman....but I think one of my favorite NSV's will be ....

when a man bumps into me because he is trying to cop a feel, not just because my ass is in his airspace....

....sigh....I am but weak flesh.... :faint:

I think Ropers are shoes, like cowgirls and boys wear. they are boots, and they have little tassle things at the tongue. Very country. but they are cool, and expensive and quite a reward if your into that. good for you!!

I had to lay off the shopping, it was getting out of control. But I can shop now more than I could because i dont have to pay $80 for a Tshirt, like I had to when I wore plus sizes. So I'm enjoying spying something and being able to have it and it not costing a fortune.

Running is my reward, to be able to just go out for a run and it not kill me but rather, make me feel good! I love it.

My first reward was my son asking if it bothered me to make him a sandwich. He was very impressed that it didn't make me nuts because I'm still on liquids!

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.
      Just for fun last week, I ran two 5Ks in two days, something I would have never done in the past! Next goal is a 10K before the end of this month.

      Hi everyone, I wrote back in May about having no strength. I still get totally exhausted just walking from room to room, it’s so bad I’m using a walker with wheels of all things. I had the gastric sleeve Jan. 24th. I’m doing exactly what the programs says, except protein shakes. I have different meats and protein bars daily, including vitamins daily. I do drink my fluids as well.  I go in for IV hydration 4 days a week and feel ok just til evening.  So far as of Jan 1st I’ve dropped 76 lbs. I just want to enjoy the weight lose. Any suggestions or has anyone else gone thru this??  Doctor says just increase calorie intake, still the same.

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️
