Rewards!?!

[jersey_girl_86 61]

My first weight goal is to be in "onederland" I have 28 more pounds to go!

I have always rewarded myself with food (going to certain restaurants or getting my fav dessert from a local bakery) now I can't do that so I am think of new rewards.

Just wanted to hear from my Sleeve Family on what they have gotten/done as a reward for meeting goals!

Mani/pedi.

[sharonintx 1,275]

New clothes, new haircut, or a lot of times no real reward but instead catching a glimpse of myself in the window while walking into a store and wondering whose legs those are attached to my body because my legs have never looked that small.

A new pair of high heels because I could sure as heck never balance on them before.

Sometimes the reward comes on it's own without me having to think about it. Like when you see someone you haven't seen in a while and your appearance is so different that they can think of nothing to say that will cover up the look of surprise on their face. Or when you see someone who gave you condescending looks and remarks when they learned you were going to have WLS, and now, oddly enough, they cannot think of anything to say because you look so much better than them.

I am currently 192 pounds. I plan on getting a tatto when I get to 165 I plan to get a small horsehead on the side of my thigh just above the knee on the outside. Something that will show when I wear shorts but not show when I where skirts/dresses at work.

When I get to goal weight I am buying new tall riding boots for showing my horse. I may also get fancy riding chaps.

I don't really have any other interim goals and rewards.
