I like to reward myself, non-food. Rewards come in the treat of a hike without huffing and puffing, pedicure, manicure. Plan to get my hair done at 25 lbs. I need to set my reward goals for fun.
Love the idea of the bracelet with add-ons.

I am rewarding myself with each 20 pound loss. The first mini goal was rewarded with new makeup and skin care. I had so much fun playing in Sephora with a slimmer face
The next 3- 20 pound losses will be rewarded with new clothing (the smallest size in my closet is petite 8...so I am looking forward to a petite 4-6 for the first time in my adult life)

I love the bracelet idea - I'm going to buy myself a present every month, which will start next week
I like the idea of looking at your wrist/hands and seeing the pounds or months stack up, so maybe I'll look at bracelets or stacking rings . . .I may have to window shop before next week. I've warned my husband to start saving his money because in a few months I will go on a serious shopping spree. He says he can't wait!

I love Pandora bracelets and have a few of them. I bought myself a new bracelet (one of the leather ones) and have been buying a charm for each 5 lbs lost....which reminds me I haven't picked one for the last 5 I lost. I decided to go with a food theme for it. So far I have a cake, a cupcake and a pineapple....think the next one will be an apple. I have been picking up some new clothes as I lose as I had no choice but once I hit goal I plan to go on a full out shopping spree and get a bunch of new stuff.

For 30 lbs lost I rewarded myself with a new bag. For 60 I will get a new pair of shoes. And the final 90 (or whenever I decide to stop) will be a new wardrobe. Also, working on a "skinny-moon" trip if I can maintain for 6 months or a year. Very exciting!!
Love the bracelet idea and having that reminder there...may need to add to my list

My first reward will be when I reach "one-derland" & it will be a visit to my favorite second hand store. Other planned rewards-- new yoga clothes, fresh flowers, a massage, Philosophy lotion in my favorite scent, new lipstick after a beauty consultation. I like the idea of a bracelet with special charms too...may look into that also.

I LOVE the idea of rewarding ourselves for the small successes of loss along the way! I dont know that my hubby would agree but I think its a nice way to encourage ourselves
I havent figured out what my rewards may be... although I did tell my hubby when I reach my goal that I will go to our photographer and get some boudoir photos done for him My photographer has always encouraged me to come get some.. but at this size I wouldnt even dream of it... but maybe when i reach a slimmer sexier me I will be more receptive!
Love all the suggestions... keep up the good work everyone

these are all amazing ideas. My DH promised me a trip to Italy when I reach goal. Its also our 5 year anniversary in July so I am hoping we can go. I have lost 47 lbs since having my baby, and I have always wanted a pair of designer shes so DH bought me a pair in January when I hit 130 Love them.

I haven't really thought of rewards.
I didn't get rid of my smaller wardrobe when I put on this 30 pounds, so my reward is fitting into my clothes again. My goal is to lose 36 pounds total by the time my new store opens April 29th. Since I am no longer in the corporate world, but retail, I suppose I will have to have an entirely different wardrobe.

All great rewards. Scorbett, what a great idea . I tend to buy jewelry with meaning, to remind me of an exceptionally happy time or a time of achievement. The charms are a cool idea because you just keep adding them. very , very cool. I think i'm going to do that.
