How do you celebrate your milestones?

I'm very close to passing my first milestone: going from the 300's into the 200's! I have 8 lbs to go! 

How do you guys celebrate your weight loss milestones? 

I'm also thinking ahead to my 100 lb milestone... I was thinking I would go to Vegas for that one! Maybe see some male strippers! LOL! Get all fancied up and walk around town and dance! Last time I was in Vegas I barely ate anything, so that will be fine! I think the harder part will be not drinking all my calories, and remembering to get my protein in! But I guess I have a few months to make a plan for that!

i would do something like get a pedicure or a new hair do.  When I reached 199 I bought some new clothes.

Clothes were my main celebration - but those are more of a necessity, I guess. A few special things I did along the way:

A pedicure

A charm for my bracelet

At my 1 year surgiversary - a 3 stone ring (no, not diamonds, but very nice tanzanite!)

I already do those things for myself all the time! Haha! I'm thinking some new shoes and bag... since I can't shrink out of those! Lol!

My votes is for a new purse, but then again...I'm a handbag 'ho. ( or hag, if you will. ) 

I think Tusdays are cause for buying a new purse.

I'm looking forward to new running shoes and a gym bag. Also thinking about adding a massage into the mix.

My husband bought me a pandora bracelet as a surgery gift.  Each time I hit a weight milestone, I added a bead.  My bracelet is too full now -- it's absolutely beautiful.  Each bead I bought signifies something -- for example, I have a red bead that signifies Arches National Park -- because I climbed to the top of a beautiful vista there after losing 100 lbs -- a Disney one when I could ride all the rides... etc

That sounds so beautiful, Kat! Any chance at a picture? (It would definitely help in the husband hint-dropping department, haha!)

Sure.  I love my bracelet.  I actually have quite a few more beads/charms, but my original bracelet became too large for me to wear and slipped over my hand too easily.  When I changed to a smaller bracelet, all my charms no longer fit.
