So I've decided that when i reach my goal weight there are two things I'm going to do for myself and only myself...

1.I'm getting a beautiful tattoo below my bellybutton, sexy i think.
2. I'm going to take photos of myself and apply to be a suicide girl.

Which by the way is wayyyyyy out of my comfort zone, being that you have to get nude(nothing trashy).I want to do it for myself and reclaim my beauty.

Do any of you have a reward or goal set to happen once you reach your desired weight??

First of all a tattoo for a reward is a rockin' idea and I might have to steal that idea from you. Second...umm Suicide girls are awesome and I think that's a hot idea too. I'm not sure if I could ever do that...being naked skinny or not in front of other people and having pictures taken of me is very frightening. Good luck and keep me posted...I'd love to see the new tattoo when you get it !

When I reach my goal, besides a wicked shopping spree....I'm considering doing boudoir photos, for me and my bf. I think that would be awesome and I've always wanted pictures like that, but have been too shy about my body.

Great goal rewards ladies! My first mini goal when I hit 145 I bought two nice dresses from BCBG and White house Black market. Still havent worn them yet but I have them for when I will need them. My next mini goal for hitting the 30's I bought a computer. I could of taken my computer in to get it fixed but Ive been saving up for a Macbook and I thought what a great time to get it when I reached that goal for myself. I think when I hit my real goal Im not going to get anything just treat myself to a nice sushi dinner!!!

my hubby is going ove rto afgainistan, so as a reward for myself and a gooding away oresent for him if have booked a boudoir photo shoot for april 2

Those are great rewards!

PlatniumGi- i love tattoos, my mama told me to never get anyones name ,so instead i have my favorite quotes( im a book nerd) my last one was a Bob dylan song lyric on my foot. As for the suicide girl thing, I'm pretty shy about my body, skinny or not, but i want to take a risk and really step out of myself just once.

Beatnik - LOVE IT! I've actually had the same thought about SG. Lose the weight and TONE up.... and you don't actually have to get NAKED naked. Some of the girls do more risque photos, but you don't see any full on nudity!

I also want a huge back piece and half sleeves done. I think when I hit the half way mark I'm going to get my nose re-pierced.

Just being skinny and feeling good about myself is such a huge reward, but I'm also saving up so I can go on a huge shopping spree Me and my friend whose also losing weight have decided that in May we're going to annapolis mall and we're going to shop for "skinny clothes" haha

Also, I want a tattoo, but I'm waiting until September because a) I'll have the money then and b) I won't have to have my parents sign off on it haha

Hmm...I'm not buying any clothes until I hit ultimate goal. I'm so close...lol...yet so far.Ugh. I do have things though for my little 5 lb goals.
180: 20 dollars for itunes and rose lip balm
175: 25 dollar itunes and redken wool shake
169: haircut and new bikini.
Yay!!!!!! Only 16 more lbs. grrr...close but far. I hope this won't take as long as I expect it will.

Well, I think you should go for the Suicide Girl thing BeatnikMama ! I think that's gonna be awesome for you and maybe I'll join you one day...lol.
It's true that name tattoos are a no no ! I had initials done when I was younger and I struggled to cover the up years later...UGH ! BUUTTT lyrics are a great idea. I really like the way words look on skin. I have the Serenity Prayer on the back of my left arm. I'm not religious but the more popular part of that prayer is one of my favorite things and I try to live my life by it. "God grant me the serenity to accept the things I cannot change, courage to change the things I can, and the wisdom to know the difference."
So I'm def. gonna say that Bob Dylan lyric idea is great. What lyric is it ?

It's from the song Visions of Johanna..."This is what salvation must be like after a while..." i got it for two babies. And I LOVE Bob Dylan lol

Awesome, well good luck on reaching your goal. If you need support or someone to chat with...I'm here

I'm getting breast implants. I've always wanted them (since the 8th grade when I realized I would never have them, lol) and it will make me feel even more sexy and confident on top of my weight loss!

if only i could afford that .....

I love script tattoos, but I'm a fan of words so....

I have 7 tattoos total. 2 of which are script.

The big one across my chest (you can see in my avatar) says "Luctor et Emergo" which is Latin for "I struggle, but I emerge." I have 2 sparrows on either side of it, one blue, one purple (need to get those touched up as the ink pulled during healing, nothing the artist did).

I also have "Tortura de me alma" in script on my chest above my heart... which means "Torture of my soul" in Spanish. Altogether it signifies that my heart is the torture of my soul... long story. LOL

Man... I want new ink NOW!
