What is your reward for hitting goal?

I re-read my post, and it reads almost with an angry tone.  I'm pretty even-keeled but I suppose I am angry, a bit.  What's always frustrated me is the extra cost (even at Mark's WW) that they tack on for the plus sizes.  The main rationale is that they are using extra fabric, and they have to set up the production machine templates, etc. and that adds to the cost.  Well, they use extra fabric going from small to XL and they have to change the machine templates for those too, but the price is the same for the s,m,l, and xl sizes.  Kinda weakens their reasoning in my books. 

On this forum, I know I'm not alone and that really helps me to draw inspiration from the successes, grow aware from the concerns put out there and learn a whole lot. 

I'm ready to get this show on the road.

I didn't take it as anger more frustration.  And I completely understand the frustration and agree with you 100%.  CarlRay, you vented in a very diplomatic way I certainly didn't mind your rant, you just said it before I did.  And it is good to get it out there now and then.  That is what I think this board is for. As long as you are respectful to the members you can voice your concerns, complaints and compliments, we are here to listen and respond.

Skydiving.  While I realize I weigh less than most average sized men so probably wouldn't be denied, I just can't imagine doing it at this weight.

I also plan on pulling out an old outfit from a time I felt beautiful and hanging it on my closet so I see it every day for motivation.  Putting on that outfit I suppose is more of a goal, but leaving the house in it will be a huge reward!

I am also working on a list of 100 NSV.  I am hoping that when the stalls happen I will have lots of things to 'check' on days where there is no scale movement.

If I am being honest though, my biggest reward will be a breast list.  Despite fit tween and teen years, my boobs have never been perky.  I wanted to wait until after kids so I could breastfeed.  I didn't know I wouldn't end up having kids until my mid thirties.  Since kids there has not been a point until I loose the weight.  That truly will be my victory.  It's fair to say I have wanted a lift for 25 years.

I already told my niece I'm taking her to Canada's Wonderland when I hit goal.  She loves going but none of her friends like the roller coasters.  I used to love them, and hopefully still will.

If I had the money, I'd love to take her to Universal Studios to visit the Harry Potter themed areas. 

I'd also love to go on a cruise, or a tropical vacation, and not spend most of the time worried about how I look in a bathing suit. I love swimming and snorkeling.  I'd also love to go to Europe.  I need to win the lottery, lol.
