I love the bracelet idea, but I will definitely be treating myself to a 90 minute massage at goal!

I haven't done anything yet to reward my efforts, but when I hit my second mini-goal I want to get a new outfit.

I am doing one every 10 pounds until I am in onderland. My first reward (20 pounds) is a Matt Wertz Christmas CD (I love Christmas music, ha). I got my cartilage pierced after staying 100% for 2 weeks. Later I plan on getting a purse, new hair and a dress from this store that only sells to a large.

Great shoes! And great tattoo! Is that your dog??

I have never rewarded myself for weight loss as I always felt like I was just doing what I should have been doing already anyway. Since then, I have learned to not be so hard on myself. So my rewards are an important symbol of that concept for me.

I reward every 10 lbs with something that makes me feel prettier, something that reflects the new interest I have in my appearance. The first 10 lbs was a ring that I had been wanting for a while. Nothing expensive, but something I would have never allowed myself before. The next reward was a beautiful necklace I happened to come across -- another thing I would have never allowed myself before this. Third reward was a pair of earrings. All of these things will be with me even after the weight is all gone. I feel like I am slowly creating a new image -- and a new self-image -- for myself with these things.

I love Scorbetts idea! A visual reminder is wonderful. I am saving my reward for a new wardrobe once I hit goal. My closet is empty, I gave everything away so that I wouldn't have clothes to fall back on or into. I live in yoga pants and tees now. A gym membership would also be great too.
If I hit the lottery I wouldn't mind a boob lift, the girls are looking very deflated, LOL !

Like others I'm going shopping. I think I'll have a reward for points of time in maintenance, that's a great idea. Eg. when stick to exercise program for so many months, x number months still maintaining.

I love the idea of a bracelet as well. I will have to look into that myself. Thank you.

I lost my first 10lbs so I rewarded myself with a pedicure and a little window shopping at some secondhand boutiques here in town.

To keep me motivated and stash away some $$$ for my shopping spree when I make my goal I have paid into my weight loss jar.

For every pound lost from 0-20lbs I pay myself $5 a lb.
For every pound lost from 20-40lbs I pay myself $10 a lb.
For every pound lost from 40-60lbs I pay myself $15 a lb.

My final goal will be to make my goal by the end of October because the Hubby and I are going to Las Vegas for a week and we have not been away since our honeymoon 8 years ago. So excited! Look out for the hot me in Vegas Baby!

my first goal is 25 lbs (i'm down 22.5 now) and I'm taking my 10yr old son to the movies on a date to show how much his support means to me. We're both counting down to that next week!!!!

Thanks SylviesGirl, I love those shoes..lol..Yes that is my English Bulldog Lou lou, I had an artist friend design that tattoo from her picture.

I love the idea of rewarding yourself with jewelry, Our 25th anniversary is this year and DH was talking about getting new rings but I want to be at my goal first.
