Reward Yourself! What's Yours?



Recommended Posts

I have said from the beginning, when I lost 200 pounds I wanted a major reward for all my hard work. I've actually lost over 230 pounds now and finally found my reward to myself. A ring.

I have wanted a Peridot ring forever. Plus, I feel like every time I look down at my ring, it's reminder not only how far I've come but to stay on track so I never go back to that miserable state again.

So, my question is, what's your reward? It doesn't matter how big or small it is. I've had many other small ones along the way and I've love to hear yours. What do you reward yourself with instead of food?

Lovely ring! What a great reminder of the way you are taking care of yourself. You've got me thinking about a reward of some kind; that will be fun to mull over in the coming months. The band is definitely a gift to myself, that's for sure.

Beautiful! I have a peridot ring my mom gave to me long ago. Its too big, but I don't want to size it down yet until I'm "done" with my weight loss.

While I haven't settle on a prize yet...funny enough...I've been eyeing some beautiful rings...they are one thing I want to wait on because I know my ring finger size will change. The more weight I lose the more excited I get about wearing jewelry.

I never used to wear rings, necklaces or bracelets...It might be because before I felt like it drew too much attention to me.

Now I'm like, "Hey...check me out with my jewelry bling." ha ha ha... ;)

My reward has been to shop and enjoy it.. haven;t done that in many years.. used to just walk out of the stores in tears.. I love jewelry too and your ring Missy is really beautiful... I may have to hit my husband up for something sparkly... I have more to go before my goal but I am rewarded everyday by my improved health..

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞
