For me I like to treat myself to either a manicure or a pedicure :)
Always interesting ideas.
Mine are to buy a book from a favorite author.
Since I do not wear tank tops, I am looking for nice sleeveless tops.
I play word games on the Nitendo DS, so I look for word games.
I don't reward myself to be perfectly honest...
Just can't find it in myself to reward myself for something which I should be doing as a matter of course...
Not sure I can change that mind-set 'cos blowing one's own trumpet was discouraged from the time we were tiny & all the way through school.
I totally agree with puting a dollar in a pot then buying yourself something nice with the money. I also have bets with my husband every week for money or rewards such as a bar of chocolate or a take away.
Nice you can wear those sleeveless tops on the hot weather too.
Now books .. way cool.
Never hurts to treat yourself as you so deserve :)
Well I kind of agree to a certain degree with you,
However that being said ..
What keeps you motivated to keep getting/staying fit & healthy ?
I know the actual weight loss is a huge reward ..
However sometimes those small other rewards can really make a difference.
Think about it ..
Welcome to the board :)
Oh love the bets with your DH .. Like what kind ?
Good for you on giving yourself those rewards .. it helps doesn't it ?
If you're getting/staying fit & healthy ..
We'd love to have you join us here.
Lots of support & accoutnability.
Hope we'll see you here again :)
Your new taggy is nice Hugs...nice colors.
Yes I want to wear sleeveless this year, so that is what I reward myself.
Hiya Hugs,
Whatever was causing my posting hiccup earlier this week seems to have come back, so have emptied all the browsing history again & hope it keeps whatever the problem is at bay.
