What is your next goal and how will you celebrate it?

Louann's post made me think, yes scary I know.  She said something about celebrating all the small steps along the way.  I thought about it and wondered what everyone does?  Do you make little goals with yourself and then reward yourself?  How?  What is your next goal and how will you celebrate.  My next goal is to weigh 275 because I will have lost 75 lbs.  Even bigger than that goal is to weigh 250 and have lost 100 lbs.  I had thought with the 100 lb loss I would get fake nails.  Anyway, would love hear what each of you are doing.

Well, at over 4 years out, I don't really have any "goals" per se.  HOWEVER, for my 5th anniversary, I want boobs.  Plain and simple, I am gonna reward myself with some bodacious tetas.  Yep, I said it.    Hey, if you can get fake nails, I can have a fake rack, right??  lol

MY NEXT GOAL IS 250 WHICH IS RIGHT AROUND THE CORNER. AS FOR A CELEBRATION I DON'T KNOW YET. I WOULD LIKE TO FLOAT DOWN A CHOCOLATE RIVER ON A HERSHEY BAR BUT I KNOW THAT'S OUT OF THE QUESTION UNLESS YOU PERSONALLY KNOW WILLIE WONKA. MAYBE THAT IS WHEN I WILL FINALLY BUY ME A FEW NEW CLOTHES. YEAH THAT SOUNDS GOOD! NOT AS GOOD AS CHOCOLATE BUT DEFINITLY WORTH CELEBRATING!

I have set small goals from myself from the very start - given the gigantic amount of weight I started with, I did not want to look at the whole amount I needed to lose so I set goals of 25 lbs increments - my next mini-goal is at 250 - After that, I will probably make 20 lbs increments since the weight is coming off slower now...As far as rewarding myself...I haven't done that. I think it goes back to the old way of dieting and the fact that I was the kind of person *****warded herself with food!!!! I find myself really get a kick out of all the huge changes and all the WOWs, that I sort of didn't think about the rewarding part of it...maybe all the changes (i.e. wearing a pair of jeans for the first time since 1998!) are the reward.

Anna you are back to being the perfect patient again..."all the changes are reward enough" blah blah blah.  Whatever!!!!  I want something cool!!!  I even told my hubby I wanted a tattoo when I finally reach whatever my goal weight will be.  He thinks I am flipping out! LOL!  Anyway, I think we shoudl do something special even if it doesn't cost money to reward ourselves at each of these milestones.  But, if it does cost money, then woo-hoo I'm cool with that too!!

I also have to convice my sister that it is cool too.  She works in healthcare and told me all this junk about how it can harm you even years later.  Dang it.  She had to ruin a perfectly good dream.  I told her if I can't do a tattoo then only a big diamond would work.  My hubby changed his tune after that and thought a tatto would be fine! LOL!
