Do you have a reward for yourself when you hit goal?

When I hit 100 pounds lost (which seems like it is taking forever), I am getting a Tummy Tuck and boob job. DH told me even if insurance denies, I can still go ahead with it. Cross your fingers-I am planning on September !!!!!

For years I always said that I wanted to go to Greece. So when I started with this I said to myself that I would go when I reach 100lbs lost. I'm already 1/2 way there I reach 50lbs this past week. So I'm actually excited maybe by next year I would be in one of the greek beaches with a greek man right next to me. Its kind of a little expensive idea but Well I got to treat myself somehow, working two jobs got to the gym 5 times a week. I'm tired. So that's my little motivation.

Diane you are so crazy. I live close to the ocean and my hubby works for a large oil firm, let me see if I can get him to see if he can swing one of the oil rigs to bar b q for us in the ocean and honey they have helicopters to fly us back and forth with and my ex has a motor home that looks like that so let me ask his wife if we can use it to pick everyone up with and we will have it made in the shade.:eek:

WHen I hit my first goal...having the proceedure done in the first place...I bought myself a pair of expensive shoes I'd been eyeing for a while.

After I met my first weight goal, I bought myself a flat panel TV!

When I meet my second goal (in about 18 lbs), I'm going on a $500 shopping spree for new clothes (and having a tag sale for the stuff that's too big for me.

When I meet my final goal, I am going to spend money hiring a trainer to help me train for the NYC marathon...my goal is to run it in 2008!

Wheetsin - If you really go to Figi, I'm so jealous!!!!!!!!!

Okay, so there's no BBQ. But, we can dream!!! ;)

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.
