reward for reaching my goal weight



Recommended Posts

SO, I get banded on 8-4-11 and I have 75 lbs to loose. I want to come up with a reward for myself for when I reach my goal weight. Has anyone else done this? I was thinking a cruise, or a vacation somewhere. I NEED SOME SUGESTIONS. WHAT DID YOU DO??:party:

I may reward myself with a Tummy Tuck, breast lift or arms! Whichever one is worse when I get there!! Or a cruise- that sounds good too!! A European cruise is my dream!!

I would want to reward myself with a breast lift. Though a cruise sounds awesome! I went on my first one when I graduated college with my family I had a good time. I think it will be more fun when I'm not morbidly obese.

I have a few "rewards"...

My mom, a few years ago, bought me a Tiffany charm Bracelet that I was never able to wear because my wrists were too big. About a month after surgery, I tried it on and it fit. So, I set little "mini goals" and after I met each goal, I got a new charm for my bracelet.

I am planning on a TT and breast lift in the fall, lol, but that isn't a reward for me, just getting rid of some skin.

Other than that, I got married 13 years ago in a size 16 wedding dress, which in hindsight since I was a size 24 on the day of surgery, I should have been happy about the size 16, lol. When I got my pictures back, I cried for DAYS and sadly, nobody has ever seen any of my wedding pictures. So, already booked, next June, hubby and I are going to Hawaii and renewing our wedding vows on the beach! :D

My husband has promised me a BMW when I reach my goal of 150. When he seen I lost 32 lbs on my pre op diet alone he told me to slow down some so he can save the money for it LOL I am going to reward myself with small things throughout the process.. Things like tanning, manicures, pedicures, etc. We deserve it!

I plan on a Tummy Tuck (I have had 3 c-sections so there is no hope) and a nice set of ta-ta's that don't look like they are from a National Geographic picture of a woman who has never seen a bra.

I am hoping that I am at goal or close to goal in November! My step-mom and sisters have a girls shopping weekend in New York every year. So I am hoping that I can save up and really go to town on a new wardrobe there!!! I am hoping to be at a 14 by the end of the summer and a 12 r 10 by November. I think my end goal will be a 10, but I would be really happy with a 12. 20 Years ago I was a 10-12 and I thought I looked pretty hot! of course that was 20 years ago! lol :lol:

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

        Your so close now! It's gonna be great :) Wishing you a speedy recovery and looking forward to seeing how it goes!

    • buildabetteranna

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!

      Hi everyone! I’m brand new here. I just went through all my pre-op requirements per my insurance company and now everything has been submitted and I’m just waiting for final approval and my surgery date. I’ve been doing research, watching YouTube videos, TikTok’s, ect.. trying to prepare my mind and what to expect so I’ll be ready for the surgery. I was so sure and so set and so ready and excited. However, now that I’ve done everything & it’s almost here, I am sooooooo scared! I know why I want it bc I’ve tried everything and I just don’t feel like I can lose weight by myself. I’m tired of being overweight my entire life. I’m miserable, but I keep psyching myself out afraid of GERD bc I know how that can be and I don’t want to have to get a bypass after already gaining the courage to even get VSG. I’m scared of complications like I’mgoing to regret doing it and be depressed that I didn’t just be more disciplined and try again to lose the weight on my own even sitting here typing this knowing in my mind i just can’t and don’t possess the discipline. I’m also afraid I won’t be able to handle the restrictions of the sleeve. What do I eat? I don’t know how to eat healthy really and don’t enjoy healthy food. I don’t know how to do this! I feel so defeated!Someone tell me they felt anything similar to this or am I not ready? I thought I was. I am so tired of being sick and tired and so tired of myself and so tired of being stuck and stuck in this body and somebody different on the outside from what I feel inside. I just want to ball up and cry.

        Am feeling this right now. My surgery date is 4/1. Sign the consent tomorrow. I feel like I overloaded myself with too much info, too many opinions. Got to the point where I was wondering if I should do this. Then I thought of my reasons for taking this step and that settled my nerves. Still get moments of doubt but am striving forward. Am just going to follow my book from the surgeon. Joined this because I was told by my dietician that I should do this for support
