Wife: I did, he said whoeee sweet stuff, it looks even better back here.

Ha! Love this! Maybe I'll revise my reward from going camping and tubing on the Frio (in a bikini), to getting tatties on the foobs? LOL, I horrified my PS when I suggested I might get Harley Davidson tats there instead of nip tats. :D Ahhhh BC, you make us laugh in your face! Cheers mamacita! Keep rockin' it!!!

I get mani/pedi's and a massage as a celebration.

Foobs ?!? Hilarious

I love all the suggestions may steal a few...

I'm considering a tattoo as well, for when I get to my goal weight. But really I will probably do my first celebrating by shopping at 'regular' clothing stores rather than the one reasonably-priced plus size shop here.

Hubby and I celebrate with trips to a more upscale hot tub gardens, get a room with a fireplace and a waterfall, and let the world melt away for a couple hours.

We also still eat! We both love adventurous dining, I just eat a hell of a lot less now.

My bestie and I celebrate with trips to antique stores, plays, and just hanging out doing art together.

For home with friends....rather than pizza, chips and soda......we do crockpots of white chicken chili and veggies with hummus. We still play stupid games, watch movies and hang out together. Hasn't changed that much:) And there's still some junk food around....but we're better about making sure the main meal is healthier.

I love to celebrate with my kiddo and hubby by doing something in nature. Kiddo and I both love nature photography, horseback riding, canoeing and hiking:)

We celebrate hubby's victories with small plane rides. Flyboy needs to stretch his wings every so often:)

I've never heard of a hot tub garden, is it similar to a day spa?
