So how do you guys reward yourself for progress or having a good week both eatting and exercise wise?
Me? I'll go get a new goodie at the MAC counter, or spend a night doing my hair, (which is an ordeal with having to bleach, then colour, then put extensions in!), or hit the thrift store on the way home from work.
Today I completed my 21-day straight exercise challenge and awarded myself by wearing a super cute straight skirt that I hadn't been able to wear in a long time.
I reward myself by picking up a new book from the discount book store, treating myself to 2 decadent chocolate truffles,a new nail polish or lipstick or a big bouquet of flowers
I rewarded myself for losing my first 10 pounds by buying a pair of white cloth sneakers, and a can of gold spray paint. And then wearing the result of a marriage of the two to work.
You'd be surprised the reaction that a simple pair of golden tennis shoes can elicit.
I rewarded myself for my continuing work on the track with a new pair of running shoes. However, I found out this morning these shoes are slipping on my heels, so I have to exchange them for a better fitting pair.
I actually get that "You're from another planet" look alot, Mauvaisroux. But yes, more so when I wear my golden shoes.
My favorite moments while wearing them are when I cross paths with someone who is looking at the ground, with a frown on their face. My shoes come into their field of vision. The stop, stare for a second, then look at me with a look of slight disbelief. I, of course, give them a big smile. Almost invaribly, they smile back.
i reward myself with new body art (much to my mother's dismay) in celebration of a newly flat tummy i got a tattoo of a sparrow on it. if all else fails it will at least keep me motivated to keep my tummy flat!
I have a pair of metallic purple New Rock boots I wear to work a lot. People at work are used to that kind of thing from me, I come in with my haior all manner of colours and ocassionally completely goth out if I have plans right after work.
Last Friday I finally got the salon pedicure that I have been promising myself for ages! No one but me knows that inside my knee length boots are flaming orange metallic toe nails
It's this weekend coming up. Flaming orange??? I thought i was the only person that loved orange toe nail polish! I must have about 5 different shades.
Rewarding yourself
fun idea to jazz up your shoes!
