What are you treating yourself to once you hit your goal weight???

[Myaiku_Kuraitani 245]

I haven't decided. Depends on if I have a job by then or not. I'm only 29 lbs away from my goal weight.

This is a good question. I hit my goal a couple months ago, and truth be told I think I rewarded myself all along the journey. Like buying smaller jeans, better makeup, and taking road trips to see friends, etc. basically, jumping back into life again and learning to love myself along the way. So I guess for me the reward has been the journey and self discovery!

I agree, I plan on rewarding myself all along the way, and as you said being able to buy smaller and new clothes is a DEFINITE plus, it also feels wonderful to be able to throw the larger clothes away knowing that you will never need them again! Oh and CONGRATULATIONS on hitting your target! Give me about 8-12 more months and I will be there as well!

I love all these ideas! Especially BEING IN PHOTOS with my kids. So they might actually have a photo of me! I've never been in the photos.

Sadly, reaching my goal weight will not make me richer. So most of your great ideas are out of reach for me. It will be its own reward to be able to wear normal clothes, hike, and be active generally. Not be embarrassed about my weight. I probably won't even be able to afford a new wardrobe except bit by bit. But yeah, dancing. Going on rides, everything.

I’m borrowing this idea from someone else but I heard “how to walk in high heels” lessons are being offered so I plan to get me some good [emoji151] and make use of that class!

What a great topic! I have not even thought about what I would do for myself once I reach goal. Well, one thing that is hard for me now is to hike so it just hit me that maybe my hubby and I can go somewhere and hike somewhere high - it gives me inspiration to keep working out also. Hmmmmmm!

Go on a hike with a mink coat?? I like it. lol

I reached my weight goal in july, so I got me some smaller, perkier and beautiful boobs!!

Sorry if there are some mistakes, it’s google translator’s fault! haha

I am a cruise junkie, so once I hit my goal weight I plan on going on a cruise and doing a zip line excursion as well as entering myself into several 5k's in my local area. I plan on living life to the fullest and not letting myself get back to the dark place that I was ever again!

That's an awesome goal!!

[xoxococojay 842]

I think the only thing I would like is perhaps a picture of me with my family in a happy place like the Caribbean. For too may years I have avoided most photo opportunities because how I disliked seeing myself as a heavy person. I felt like a ghost in a way, there but not really. Now that I see everyone else's wish list I'm thinking I might need to set my bar higher [emoji4] I kinda like the Porsche idea but I think it be a bit of a hard sell to the wifey and probably to myself. Almost bought a Maserati a few months ago until I investigated how much routine maintenance cost and decided it was a little too crazy even if I had the money,

I love your goal!!! It's realistic, i'm so glad you feel comfortable taking pictures now.

Love this, because i think that every single person in this community can relate to what you just said.

What's going to be your own reward to yourself?

A bikini... Lololol

In my current state (162kg), my belly almost touches the steering wheel when I'm driving. (SEE PIC)

Theres 20mm (0.8 inch) between me and the bottom of the wheel with the seat right back. I well remember a 100mm (or 4 inch) gap when I was down to 131kg in early 2016.

I want that feeling and better. It'd be nice to give the passenger behind me some leg room. :-)

The eventual hernia op next year will help too.

A great NSV to look forward to ...

A really great looking swimming suit, and not being embarrassed to wear it at the beach, pool, etc.

[njgal 535]

A whole bunch of walk-bys in front of people who would not have noticed me before and non-chalant responses like “what, this old thing??” even though I’m sure I’ll be proud as hell to be wearing a size... (whatever I settle at)
