    I told myself that at every 50lbs lost I'm getting a tattoo. 12lbs left to go, already have it designed, just need to come up with the money and someplace to get it done. My husband said he'll buy

for me at

10 lbs i spent $10 on a nice sweater :P

20 lbs i spent $20 on a pair of shoes

30 lbs - TBD

you can see the trend here though i have decided at 50lbs gone i'm flying home for a vist.. this is the weight i estimate that my butt will be airline seat friendly again :) i have avoid long flights because of being so uncomfortable.. perhaps now i can look forward to that 16 to 20hr journey..... :D

As a behavioralist I have a hard time incentivizing myself since I know pragmatically I'm always in control.

I do get a nice sense of celebration when I can fit in smaller clothes or even find something in a store to wear versus having to mail order everything.

I have been contemplating a tattoo though since the permanence removes my control of the reward long term.

ooh i want i wine. i know exactly how many laps of my block i need for a glass of wine now :D

Buy yourself something special. I know some banders have bought themselves a charm bracelet... pandora type, and buy a new charm to Celebrate. Anything that means something to you will work... except food! LOL!

I'm going to buy me something special at 30lbs.

I went to the dr this morning and basically all he had was praise and told me that I should be very proud because w/o a fill I have lost 26lbs. He even said I'm probably in my green zone. He said about 2-3% of his patients do this good w/o a fill. Just a select few. Gosh I was on cloud 9. I'll keep up the good work for sure!!!

Every 25 lbs., New clothes or a new purse. No more celebrating things with food besides I lose 25-50 lbs things like bras and panties will need to be replaced so shopping already.......
