My parents after the whole procedure is done and I get down to my goal weight of 155 are throwing me a Weight Loss Party!! I think that's a nice incentive as well to lose the weight! I never really thought about a Weight loss party to be honest with you and what it entails. Has anybody done this before?

I know the party wouldn't be surrounded by food. LOL I know what I want to wear which is a Little Black Dress to the party and have a Before and After photo up of me and the pounds I lost! I also want it Butterfly themed. Because of the metamorphosis of coming out of the cocoon.

Any other ideas???

I'm planning to buy myself some beautiful jewelry along the way - one nice piece when I hit the halfway mark and a really nice one when I hit goal. Whatever works to incentivize you sounds great to me!

Dance til you drop!

Very cool idea and a great incentive!

What a wonderful idea! I love this - and you'll get to suggest any foods or beverages that are (or are NOT!) welcome at your party.

I'm also thinking - if it were my friend or family member, I'd want to do a gift of some sort for the honoree, so be prepared to tell your parents how to answer that question when people ask. Maybe even choose a theme, like shops you can now go to, colors you now feel more comfortable wearing, massage, personal trainer hours, cosmetics makeover, hair re-do, or the like.

And yes - GREAT incentive! Be sure to circle back and tell us all about it, Lisa.
