I have a huge list of things I want to do: Buy a new (cute) wardrobe, get matching sexy panties and bras, go on vacation, have cosmetic surgery. But mostly I want to take lots of pictures doing things with friends and family. For so long, I hated to see myself in pictures, because I never realized how awful and big I looked until I would see myself in a picture, and then I would be horrified and embarrassed. As a result, I have hardly any pictures of myself with the people I love. I want to make great memories that I'm not embarrassed to look back on.

Cool responses so far.....plastic surgery high on the list, a mink would be awesome, can't afford the Porsche, I can't ride rides due to eye issues, I have been to some islands, I really want to go to Ireland, I (again) want to hike up Multnomah Falls - 600 ft waterfall, have a closet full of fitted clothes.

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

I might just stand in front of the full length mirror and enjoy what I see.

When I hit my goal weight, I am going to plan a trip to an amusement park with my daughter and ride every ride! We all have season tickets to Six Flags Fiesta TX in San Antonio, but I always sit out while she rides with friends. Have taken the walk of shame too many times to count. I am sure that I can pretty much ride anything that I want now, but I am going to wait anyway. I think we will hit up Holiday in the Park in December. I should be at goal before then the way I am going now.
As far as food, I won't reward myself. I already eat anything and everything that I want. I made a promise to myself that after surgery, I was going to eat what I wanted and not diet any longer. Now that I am a little further out, I do that although I must admit.....I don't crave many things that are bad for me. I do crave veggies though, all of the time. All kinds. So far, I haven't craved sweets, so that's a big plus.
Oh yeah....A wardrobe shopping spree! I am already running out of clothes. Everything that I own is baggy on me, and I have gotten rid of 2/3's of my wardrobe already. It will be nice to wear something a bit more fitted and not saggy.

Omg i love that!!!! The amusement park idea sounds like so much fun!

This may sound crazy, but I've been planning to buy one for a long time. A Porsche 911 ( 997.2) turbo. Wife is on board since she gets her Porsche Macan first lol

That's such a good gift and no it's not crazy. I'm doing something similar. I told myself i'm treating myself to the new range rover velar. And i'm going to treat myself to whatever else i want in time because i'm finally able to enjoy my life.

First off congrats on all of you for getting closer and closer to your goal weight. I truly hope all of you are able to get to a point where you get to start rewarding yourself with your bucket list items! I'm so proud of all of you. Everyone had a really good idea.

It's your life so enjoy it and do what's meaningful to you.

My bucket list is most definitely crazy and a bit obnoxious but i don't care. I deserve it lol. I plan on treating myself to lots of things because for once in my life i really want to put myself first and enjoy that feeling.

I want to get a brazilian butt lift so i can look like an adult film star lol. I also really really want to become an egg donor. It's something i've always wanted to do but i was always to big to do it. So when i hit that magic number of 125 pounds i most definitely will reap the benefits of being a skinny chick and get paid lol.
I also want a really cute car to match the body.

I forgot I did get a luxury sports car this year.

It was more about being small in general than a reward for goal weight. My other car was large and just didn't match me anymore.

I don't see PS as a reward because at this point is reconstructive not cosmetic.

This is me word for word. I was about to respond and write exactly what you wrote.

      Thank you everyone for your well wishes! I totally forgot I wrote an update here... I'm one week post op today. I gained 15 lbs in water weight overnight because they had to give me tons of fluids to bring my BP up after surgery! I stayed one night in the hospital. Everything has been fine except I seem to have picked up a bug while I was there and I've been running a low grade fever, coughing, and a sore throat. So I've been hydrating well and sleeping a ton. So far the Covid tests are negative.
      I haven't been able to advance my diet past purees. Everything I eat other than tofu makes me choke and feels like trying to swallow rocks. They warned me it would get worse before it gets better, so lets hope this is all normal. I have my follow up on Monday so we'll see. Living on shakes and soup again is not fun. I had enough of them the first time!! LOL

      Still purging all of the larger clothing. This morning, a shirt that I ADORED wearing ended up on top. Hard to let it go, but it was also hard to let go of those habits that also no longer serve my highest good. Onward and upward!

      Well, tomorrow I go in for an impromptu hiatal hernia repair after ending up in the ER over the weekend because I couldn't get food down and water was moving at a trickle... I've been having these symptoms on and off for a few weeks but Sunday was the worst by far and came with chest pain and trouble breathing. The ER PA thinks it is just esophagitis and that the surgeon and radiologist are wrong. But the bariatric surgeon swears it is a hernia, possibly a sliding one based on my symptoms. So he fit me into his schedule this week to repair it! I hope he's right and this sorts it out. He's going to do a scope afterwards to be sure there is nothing wrong with the esophagus. Here's hoping it all goes well!!
