Do you reward yourself for hitting certain weight loss goals?

Food used to be my reward for everything.  Obviously, that had to change.  I now reward myself with a massage after every 25 pounds I lose.  This past Saturday I was down 75 pounds and had an hour and a half massage.  Best feeling ever!!

So what do you do to reward yourself?

I did buy myself something when I would get to a goal of some sort. One thing I did do was buy a lot of shoes. Not a good idea a lot of them do not fit me anymore since my feet have gotten thinner. 

new clothes :) no one wants my pants falling off(again!)

I haven't so far, and I don't intend to (other than the clothes I need to buy so I can leave the house!).

I'm trying to be in the mindset of a new healthy lifestyle rather than a diet, and for some reason "reward" sounds like dieting-talk to me.

But whatever works to keep you going! A massage does sound lovely!

Honestly,  I think I have found that my transfer addiction is shopping.  I'm working really hard not to buy things needlessly.  

I do want a massage.  Maybe my hubby will get me one for Valentine's day.  I'll drop some hints.  

My reward was a couple of hookers for every hundred pounds lost. I was really distraught that I stopped losing at 290 pounds. I was so close to that next hundred.

I say. SHOOT THE MOON! It's only 10 stinking pounds man!

Massage is a great reward.

My big rewards have been at the 100 pound milestone and at reaching goal weight.  Those had big rewards attached to them.  Things that I will have, and use, forever as a reminder of how far I have come.  At the 100 pound mark I bought a pair of diamond earrings.  Every time I wear them I am reminded of that wondrous accomplishment (I'm wearing them today).  I just reached goal weight a couple of weeks ago, so I haven't bought that reward, but I know what it is.  A vintage Channel bag.  Lambskin, quilted, chain shoulder strap.  I haven't yet found the exact one I want, but I am closing in.  These are spendy splurges/rewards, but darnit, I'm worth it.

I love the massage idea, and as soon as I can find time in my crazy schedule, I'm gonna luxuriate myself at Massage Envy for 90 wonderful, soothing, all-to-myself, wonderful minutes.

But my rewards along the way had to be curbed quickly!  There was a jewelry store right by my office that sold estate pieces and at my 1/2 way mark I bought a diamond ring.  At my 100 pounds lost mark, I bought an onyx necklace.  when I hit One-derland I bought another diamond ring to match the other.  

Thank goodness the store went out of business due to retirement before my bank account did!!
