I might have to buy myself a charm bracelet. What a great idea. I already owe myself 4.7 charms, I like that. Lol

I highly recommend it Hilary! I wear my bracelet every day as both a personal reminder and a celebration of all the hard work that I have done and am continuing to do.

I do a mini-goal pressie every 10kgs (22lbs)

20kgs - Massage
30kgs - couldn't decide
40kgs - still could decide on 30 let alone one for 40!!
50kgs - decided to combine 30, 40 and 50 and got a new camera (the new skinny me wants to get into photography a lot more and be climbing round hills taking pictures of nature, macros of plants etc)
60kgs - iPad mini to go with my camera

Next goal is 70kgs which will be my BIG surgeons goal and I think it will be teeth whitening, or getting a few little spider veins on my right leg done so I feel better about wearing skirts and dresses.

When I had lost 50 pounds I bought myself a nice purse from Zappos.  I'm sort of a purse nut because, during all those years of having a huge body and huge feet, purses were my only way of wearing something fun and pretty.

I'm torn about what to do when I reach 100 pounds lost.  I might start having some of my many, many skin tags removed.  (Sorry if that's TMI.)

My husband is so thrilled with my weight loss that almost every day is a celebration.

Nancy, I've been having skin tags removed for years.  Someone once told me they're a possible indicator of insulin-resistance, which kind of makes sense in this weight loss battle, too.  But what I was going to tell you is that my dermatologist does it in office, and my insurance does pay for it.  Check your benefits; you may not have to wait for that.

Thanks!  I'll look into that.

Right now my goals aren't all based on weight.  My goal for March was to walk 40 miles.  I made that goal and am going to reward myself with a facial because I've never had one.  My goal for April is to walk 50 miles, but I may implement another.  I don't know what the reward will be yet.
