I'm curious.. has anyone set a reward system for themselves? I know the weight loss and getting healthy is a reward in itself, but I was thinking about incremental rewards for myself.. Like first 50lbs lost and treat myself to a facial. First 100lbs lost new shoes. Thoughts? Suggestions?

Thanks!

I did a new water bottle. I'd hold off on new shoes cause your feet may shrink. I went from a 9.5-10 to a 7! A 7!!! I had bought new shoes when I lost 100 lbs (size 8) and now they don't fit.

I say you have the hubby take you to do a little shopping, or go have a massage!

I have a pair of black designer pumps in mind when I reach my goal. Hahaha it's going to take me until then to save up enough money to afford them! Mani/pedi, facial, massage all GREAT ideas too!

I think rewarding ourselves is important. When I reached 100 pounds lost, I remodeled my closet. It's beautiful now and I love it. No way fat clothes are ever going back in there!! kiss

I definitely like an award system, I did it for myself enlightened. I allowed myself a purchase in the dollar value of $25 dollars for every 20 pounds. It had to be something for ME that I wouldn't otherwise spend the money on.
