At my weekly weigh-in, I was officially under 200 lbs; a weight I haven't seen in more than 16 years!

I want to Celebrate but can't think of anything special to do that is affordable and not food-related.

Surely many of you have celebrated this milestone.... what did YOU do to mark the occasion?

(PS let the record show that I'm very grateful to have this problem, lol)

I got my self a new work out suit and a water bottle. On sale [emoji18]!! I also went dancing lol. I did give myself a sugar free jello only 10 cal. And tastes splendid. Only ate one my kids took the other 3!!! Congrats on your milestone ..

Congratulations! I'm just one pound away and I hope to get there this week. I was thinking a new swim suit might be a good reward. We are already at 90 here in Texas today.

I'm nowhere close, but I plan on going horseback riding and buying a pair of awesome boots when I get there. I've always had really thick calves, so it would be wonderful to be able to wear boots.

As for affordable things, a new swimsuit or other piece of clothing that makes you feel awesome. A stylish new haircut, a massage, a mani-pedi. Something to make you feel good.

Oooh, a horseback riding lesson... That would be a wonderful way to celebrate! I used to be an avid horsewoman but haven't been on a horse in 20 yrs or more due to my wt.

Congrats!

I am about 20 lbs from onederland. I suppose I should start thinking about my "prize". One thing that became apparent this morning is that by the time I hit onederland I am going to need to buy some new jeans. I just got into my smallest "skinny" jeans - size 18 -- no W!!! These jeans have to be about 10 years old and from the shape they are in, I didn't wear them very long. I am taking a load of clothing to the consignment store this weekend so I may have to check out the smaller size jean selection - IN THE MISSES SECTION!!! By the time I reach onederland I may need to get 14s.

You know, I've been looking at new swimsuits as the one I have is starting to get big. I think that will be my celebration. I will have to pay retail for a suit since that's not something I want to wear used. Kind of like underwear! Besides, I am training for a triathlon so that suit is kind of necessary. They frown on nekkid at the rec center!

Congrats again. Can't wait to hear what you what you choose!
