Topic: RE: Short Term Goals - Rewards
I reward myself every 10 pounds with a new charm on my WLS charm bracelet. Everytime I feel sad or depressed that the weight is coming off slow or that I can not have something I take a look at that bracelet and know all of the progress I have made.

Topic: Short Term Goals - Rewards
Okay, I posted earlier about what your April goal was. This time I'd like to ask you what your shorter term goal is this week and what do you do to plan on rewarding yourself?
I personally plan on exercising 3 times this week. That really isn't much, but I am looking at my schedule right now and wondering HOW I'm going to do it. IF in fact I do make it, I'm going to keep my appointment for my day spa treatment. I got the gift at Valentines day but wanted to hold it as a reward.
What about you all?

Stacy,
I have been having feelings of failure because I am probaly not going to reach " 100 lbs in six months " well then I decided that it is just a saying and the fact that I have lost 88.5 lbs is better than where I was at 5 months ago. I did notice that yesterday I got out in the yard and played around with my gardening I woke up this morning and lost had 1.5 lbs.

Hi Stacey,
I feel scared all the time. I am 58 pounds from goal and I fear that I will not make it. I know I will in reality because i am not eating anything like I used to, but the mental thought is, it will never happen. So lets be encouragement for one another, WE can DO IT!!!!

Sounds good, these are all the things I eat, so I think I can do this.

Stacy, You are doing so well. Be thankfull for what you have done. You are real close to being under 200. Won't that be a day to celebrate? Keep your eyes on the 150's, but when you get under 200 that needs to be one of your major goals concidered done. Karen
