I'm going to start a list non-food rewards to use as motivation for staying on track both before and after my surgery. So far I have the more obvious ones...mani/pedi, massage, jewelry, nail polish/make-up...but I'm looking for more ideas.

What types of Atta-Girls/Boys are you giving yourself for making good choices? Thanks! B)

I know when I reach my goal weight I'm getting a Michael Kors purse. I don't really have any mini-goal rewards. I'm already really good at loving myself and showering myself with gifts :)

My rewards have been new jeans, tops, massage, Oh and I have a big one A hot airbaloon ride/wine tour. (this is a bucket list item) It was my gift to myself when I got to 240 as I hadn't seen that number in 8 years. Also I can't do it till Aug so I am hoping it will be a combo onederland gift too. :) I am going to start putting money away for my breast lift and TT. So no more big $$ rewards just little ones and a piggy bank.

Concerts, clothes, new gadgets for phone, camera, n computer. N kitchen stuff. U could do every mini goal (like 5 lbs) equals $5, put it in a jar til the big goals hit, count it up and blow it all on u

I'm thinking big & long term on this one. My reward to myself when I hit goal weight is a really nice custom tailored suit. Haven't decided on whethered it's gonna be Brooks Bros or Armani yet but it's gonna be rrediculously expensive & I'm gonna look great in it :D

I'm afraid that I am like SexySlim on this one. I very much believe in pampering myself, so it is hard to think of routine treats that would be meaningful. I'm buying myself the classic Coach weekend duffle when I reach goal.

      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.

      Had a sleeve in 2017, lost over 100 pounds. Had a DS surgery this year (2025) for more sustainable weight loss. 🤞

      The 14th was my day. I am home and recovery is going pretty smooth. They even let me walk out of the hospital. Picture of me in recovery curtesy of my boyfriend lol.
