formerfatchick 1 Posted August 16, 2009 Hey everyone, just wanted to see what people's first goal is and how they are planning on rewarding themselves ! I think that having non-food based rewards are very important especially since most of us have hung on to that as a method of comfort our entire lives !!!!

MissK 0 Posted August 16, 2009 my first goal is actually to go through with the surgery, and my reward is a mother/daughter facial at a day spa one week post-op before my mum goes home. I expect most of my rewards to be shopping- related :-D Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
greytz 4 Posted August 16, 2009 Ditto here. I have already given myself a reward at my 30 lbs goal. I bought a handbag. I really nice one. It is kind of a birthday goal bag rolled into one because I didn't want to feel too guilty about it. My next mini goal is on Sept. 4th when I go on a plane to visit my mother. I want to be in onederland! I have 10 lbs to go and I am not sure I am going to make it but I am going to give it my best shot. At least I know the seat belt will fit!

abingdongirl 0 Posted August 16, 2009 my first goal is to get under 200lbs, and my reward is the Wii Active game to compliment my Wii Fit game. The other reward is an increased libido. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
jennyr1222 0 Posted August 16, 2009 I agree with Miss K that most of my rewards will be shopping related. However today I'm doing a mani/pedi to reward myself for great progress so far!! 1 pound to my first goal of 10% weight loss! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
abbypoo 0 Posted August 16, 2009 My first reward is at 40lbs, I thought this would be a good first goal because whenever I used to diet I would get to about 30lbs lost before I would fail or plateau or something. But anyway, I'm going to get a nice pair of boots to go with this sexy wool jacket I bought for this winter. What? I live in Wisconsin. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
TiffanyP 0 Posted August 16, 2009 My first goal is -50 pounds. I haven't decided on a reward as of yet. I am half way there, so I better be deciding. I then have -25 increment goals after that, and no specific rewards there either until I am at goal and maintaining. Those are when I have specific rewards for myself. Good Luck All!!!

lotusflwr 0 Posted August 16, 2009 Wow! What a great idea. I think I'll make my first reward be when I hit Twoterville. I started this journey at 342, I'm down to 20 pounds with 22 to go. I'm not sure what my reward will be I'm going to have to think on that a little. I just ordered me a treadmill, so maybe I'll get the wii fit as the reward......let me think on it I'll get back to you when I decided. Patty Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
formerfatchick 1 Posted August 16, 2009 My first big goal is -50 lbs from my surgery weight and that should put me at 199 and in wonderland. When I make that I hope to get my tatoo that I've been wanting for quite a while so it will also serve as my commemorative tat !!! Along the way though as I start to slim I figure I'll just be "forced" haha to go shopping !!! Horrible predicament to me in...right ??!! LOL !!! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
abbypoo 0 Posted August 17, 2009 So what is the tat going to be of? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Unforgettable 0 Posted August 17, 2009 I love goals and rewards!! lol I have tons of them, really just excuses to buy and do things I want My first goal of reaching ONEderland, which I'm about 7-9 pounds away from, I'll be getting a breast cancer ribbon tattoo in honor of my mom on my wrist which I've been wanting for a while. her battle through breast cancer along with other family medical problems really opened my eyes to the path that I was on. When I'm halfway to goal, I want to get myself a tiffany's Bracelet that I've been wanting but could never justify. When I reach goal, I'm taking a long vacation to somewhere tropical...can't decide between bahamas, aruba, or jamaica. I can't wait for this one!! Other things along the way or at goal, I want to buy myself a sweet expensive pair of designer jeans because, well, why not? Would love to do a pinup photo shoot. Skydive. The list just goes on and on Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
seckert08 0 Posted August 17, 2009 When I get to 199 I plan to do a pedicure and manicure! I think that after that I will do 10 or 15 pound goals. Most likely I will go shopping when I reach each goal. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

morphiend 0 Posted August 18, 2009 Speaking of tatoos, I have a purple rose on my lower right side of my abdomen. From 3 pregnancies and all this weight it is all stretched out and has stretch marks through it. (My sister tells me it looks like a rose bush instead of a rose.) I'm hoping with all this weight loss it will shrink and look halfway normal again. :hurray: Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
