  • What will be your reward at goal?

    I think everyone tries to 'reward' themselves with some little things along the way... (a pedicure, a day at the spa, a new haircut, etc.) But I was wondering...

    what is your reward (besides the obvious - great looks/health/fitness/etc) going to be when you hit goal? What absolutely fantastic treat are you planning?

    I bought my mini-reward---a bicycle. For my final reward....gee....I gotta think about that.

      A trip to Paris and possibly the UK too! Time to live and enjoy myself for all the years I've let life pass me by!
      How about you - you didn't answer your own question! Whats your reward for final goal?

          It's still a long way off for me, but I'm planning! I'd like to either take a cruise or a really nice Caribbean vacation (to show off my new slim and sexy bod).

          My mini-goal reward at 125 lbs loss is to get one of those mineral wraps at a local spa.

          My 100 lbs loss reward was a facial. I should have done something more, but never got around to it. I already get a massage once a month (helps my fibro) and a manicure/pedicure every so often.

          Still thinking about the 150 lbs loss reward.
          Start date: 2/22/04 347/222/135 ~ 5'2"
          STAC Restart: 1/05/09
          306/229/135 ~ 5'2" 77 lbs down!

          Goal #1: 247 - 2nd 10% (59lbs, 247, also 100 lbs total loss) - Met 1/4/10!!!
          Goal #2: 241 - Halfway to goal! (106 lbs lost) - Met 2/21/10!!!

          Goal #3: 222 - 3rd 10% - Lowest Atkins weight
          Goal #4: 210 - Still on track!
          Goal #5: 200/199 - 4th 10% - One-derland! End year goal!

            I keep thinking I want some awesome dessert for my reward goal! It's horrible. Instead, I'm going to treat myself to a clothing shopping spree. After all, my old clothes aren't going to fit that well and it should be fun shopping with my new body.

              Re: What will be your reward at goal?

              my reward...? well (blush blush), I have a picture in my workout room that is a copy of a photo from an artist in Dublin. It's a near nude of a woman in VERY good shape but not bodybuilder-like, just very feminine.

              Anyway - I contacted that guy when I was in Dublin once (without thinking) and asked him how to get some other pics or a 'real' one or ... Turns out the guy is like this REALLY famous photographer. But I told him (before I knew he was famous) how inspirational I found his picture in helping me lose weight and keep exercising. Long story short.... once I hit goal I hope, think, may (we'll see how brave I am) have this guy do some pics of me (before I become ancient!). I think he will - and well, I've always been camera shy because of my weight so this would be an affirmation - a validation - a triumph.

              So, it seems silly (and maybe downright weird) for a 40 year old to want to do. But it is driving me... so I guess that's all that matters right?

                Kacey, that's completely awesome! I think you should do it. Who cares if it seems silly to do now, when you're older you'll appreciate them. That's a great idea!

                  I am going to ride every amusement park ride my kids want to because I can get on with confidence knowing that I can fit. Not that I like rides, however my kids do and I want to be a huge part of their fun memories as well. It will be nice to not be limited in life because of my weight. I will not be on the sidelines of life anymore!!! I will swim, fly, play sports again, dance. My reward will be a fun active lifestyle again.

                    I'll be off to Los Angeles for a whole week once I reach goal...I've always always wanted to go there, but haven't because I was embarassed to go to a place full of beautiful people when I'm sitting at 285 lbs!

                    Rodeo Drive is waiting and so in Venice Beach!


                    Dammit! Whenever I think of Los Angeles I get that stupid song from Tell Me on A Sunday stuck in my head..."Capped Teeth and Caesar Salad"...argh!!!

                      I will go on a major shopping spree.

                      I will never ever wear a cover up over my bathing suit.

                      And I will wear a bikini.

                      I will re-new my vows (on a beach here in Hawaii) with my DH.

                          My reward will be electrolysis on my armpits. Weird I know. I have to shave daily because the skin there is extremely sensitive and I will literally make myself bleed itching.

                            I want to be light enough to go horse-riding again! And if I can convince my hubby I'd love to have a horse of my own - he may take some convincing though!

                            Another thing I'd love to treat myself to is have my teeth veneered - I'm determined once I have a nice body again I want nice teeth to go with it so I can smile properly in photographs!
