What are some weight loss rewards you rewarded yourself when you reached a certain goal?

I'm a few lbs to my half way goal and I haven't thought of anything yet. Maybe I'll get some idea from the responses here :)

In a past weight loss journey....At -100lbs I bought myself an i-Pod. At -160lbs...I bought myself a kickin' emerald ring!!!! Wearing the ring which I loved, really reminded me on a daily basis of all my hard work and achievement. Expensive rewards....but hell, we deserve 'em!

I love my new body conscious clothes. I prefer things fitted and a little on the tight side. As soon as things get loose, I give them away and embrace the new size. I've shopped pretty much exclusively at thrift stores and consignment shops and I don't buy anything I really don't love. Gone are the days of buying something just because it fits. I have spent money on two new pair of tall boots---the very first time in my 54 years I can wear boots with a regular (not wide!) calf.

I always buy myself clothes, so I do not consider that an award. I've been eyeing the new Nike fuel band, I also plan to get my teeth whitened when I reach goal.

For now, every 20lbs I do a massage and/or mani and/or pedi. Once I hit some of my bigger goals, I've got things like teeth whitening, a Sephora shopping spree, fancy new cut/color, a piece of jewelry I've been coveting, clothing shopping spree. Another one is waxing. I refuse to be waxed now because I feel I'm too big. I can't wait to not have to shave anymore!! Once I hit goal, I've got plastic surgery scheduled as my reward.

      Two months out from hiatal hernia repair.  Surgeon said to expect a lot more flatulence...something about the 'air' no longer being able to 'burp' out so comes out the other end.  That is my experience but have no understanding of why that swallowed air cannot be 'burped'. ???

        As I understand it since your stomach is smaller and not completely resting against your diaphragm anymore you no longer have the ability to "push" burps out as well. Plus, since its smaller and we don't digest slower the trapped air moves a lot quicker out of the stomach so its no longer available to burp out. Hence the other option for removal.

      Anyone had the TORe procedure? How did it go? How much weight did you loose?

        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!

      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!
