Anyone have a plan for when they reach GW?
My husband and I are on SB for only 2 weeks now but I want to have something fun to work towards! Every 20-30 pounds (or sooner if we need it) we are going to treat ourselves to a new outfit or something. But I want a BIG present at the end! My plan is to go back to Vegas when we are at GW and feeling sexy again! I love that town and can't wait to get back into my sexy dress and go out and paint the town!
The other goal is once I am at GW for a little while DH and I are going to start trying to get pregnant for the first time! yay!!
Anyone else have a big present lined up as a goal?
I was just discussing this today with my friend Sadi. I have NO idea what I'm going to do! Thought about a full-body massage, but that doesn't seem like a REAL reward since I've had them in the past, just for the of it. My 2 yr anniversary with my fiance is next month, however, and I told him I'd like a little something(s) from Victoria's Secret.....that'll make me feel pretty good. But for the GW? I have NO clue. Someone toss out an idea! I'd say a trip to Key West (my FAVORITE place on earth) but I have limited vacation time that starts accumulating in October, and I've got a honeymoon in April and a trip to (duh) Key West in September. What's a girl to do? I want something to really look FORWARD to!
This is a really good question. I don't think I am going to do anything totally big -- maybe go to the beach or something. But the best gift will be a new wardrobe. I can't even tell you how much I've spent thus far going from a size 24 to a 16!!! Now it'll be from a 16 to a 12 [10 maybe???]
I'm getting a really nice new wardrobe. With good classic clothes, not the Walmart and outlet mall-end of season, get rid of these clothes $1-4 specials (Hey, remember I'm frugal!).
I've been rewarding myself all along, instead of eating. Every 5 pounds I got something I had been wanting but put it off, then recently it's been every 10 pounds. I've bought myself a blender, a chair messager (heaven-it even has shiatzu massage) and new clothes.
Each week I buy a special treat like a new tea or sb approved food that might be a touch expensive like the Wasa crackers. Those are good, but close to $4 a pack.
I guess my treat for reaching goal weight is to STAY THERE!!!!!
I do not want to gain a thing. I'll continue to live this way for life.
But, I do want to buy clothes......a lot of clothes.......maybe my husband will have to move out of the bedroom because I'm going to have so many clothes!!!!
The goal is so close I can almost taste it, but the scales won't budge. That's OK, I'm doing what needs to be done.
I agree that a new wardrobe is what I'm looking forward to most probably. I mean I want to go to LV really bad but if I had to decide between a plane ticket or to use that money for clothes.....the mall it is!!
I can't wait to shop in the normal stores again not the "hey, you're fat but you can be hip still....really.....spend $50 for a fat girl tank top.......sure, you're hip" stores. Or like you said, the Wal-mart type stores.
Can you guys imagine going into ANY store in the mall and fitting into something? wow!!!
I told my husband he should want to keep me fat because I'm spending a lot less of our money this way!! hahaha!!!
hmm...what would I give myself....I think a trip to some place tropical...or just a trip to anywere...and new clothes...it will be nice to just go into any store and be able to wear stuff
Hmmm...I have not really thought that far ahead. Trying not to get ahead of myself. I know at 180 I am cashing in on my spa certificate and getting a hot stone. I am hoping to be 170 for a wedding in October, so probably a spa event will happen then also.
I know I *should* weigh less than 170. WW says my upper limit for my height (5'6") is 155. But I seriously do not think I have weighed less than 170 in my adult life so it just seems so odd to me to even think about it.
When I get to 170 I will see then. Right now my plan would be to keep losing until we get PG again. Hopefully not long after the 1st of the year.
Guess I need to set a true goal weight before I can reward myself.
What will you give yourself when you reach GW?
of it. My 2 yr anniversary with my fiance is next month, however, and I told him I'd like a little something(s) from Victoria's Secret.....that'll make me feel pretty good. But for the GW? I have NO clue. Someone toss out an idea!

What's a girl to do? I want something to really look FORWARD to!
And a pair of jeans I want! I've got just under a stone to loose, though!
