Ideas: What do you do for yourself at each goal?



Recommended Posts

I haven't thought about rewards for reaching goals but it is a great idea. I think a neat trip would be in order. I loved the link to Galaiee and California. What are some other neat places you guys have been to or want to go to?

I used to treat myself to $1 worth of scratch-off (lottery) ticket for every time I made it to the gym. So if I went every day after work, I treated myself to a $5 ticket on Saturday. An inexpensive treat that often paid for itself and required no special planning or trips. (Here in Maryland they have scratch-off vending machines in the grocery stores.) My nutritionist also suggested buying myself flowers.

That's a great prize. I went scuba diving a few weeks ago... it's easier for me because I don't have my own gear, I just rent. I can't wait until I need less than 20 lbs on my weight belt... that will be a prize in and of itself!!!

I'd actually like to get a Wacom Intuous (sp) to start with. A while back I REALLY wanted a tablet PC, but as my drawing has been dwindling, I'm afraid that it'd be a waste of munny. Of course, if I got one, I might be prompted to draw more... LOL

;) Last time I looked, Toshiba had a really nice one. Maybe I'll go put together my dream Tablet PC and see how much it's gonna cost me :)

I believe Mari means a tablet PC and not the wacom digitizer

Oh man am I out of it!! Sheesh! Turn your back on technology for one friggin minute!!

I'd never even heard of those things. But basically, they're just a wacom on top of a notebook computer, right?

Sarah, PM me your address and I'll mail you a Wacom. Seriously, FREE TO YOU. All you have to do is download the drivers online (I'm sure that can be done). Ya just have to promise to create a DeLarla drawing to share with us.

You Mac or PC?

This is a really good idea! I don't have an exact plan yet, but pedicures, sexy lingerie, massages, and all that girly-make you feel pretty stuff will be on the list for sure.

      Two months out from hiatal hernia repair.  Surgeon said to expect a lot more flatulence...something about the 'air' no longer being able to 'burp' out so comes out the other end.  That is my experience but have no understanding of why that swallowed air cannot be 'burped'. ???

        As I understand it since your stomach is smaller and not completely resting against your diaphragm anymore you no longer have the ability to "push" burps out as well. Plus, since its smaller and we don't digest slower the trapped air moves a lot quicker out of the stomach so its no longer available to burp out. Hence the other option for removal.

      Anyone had the TORe procedure? How did it go? How much weight did you loose?

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

        Your so close now! It's gonna be great :) Wishing you a speedy recovery and looking forward to seeing how it goes!

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!
