does anyone give themselves rewards for like pounds loss or a week of good eating ??
i was thinking that i am going to set this up for myself......
i was thinking for the 1st week that if i had a whole week with no cheats then i would go out and get myself a new pair of shoes...... for i LOVE shoes!!!!!!!!!!!
maybe i will even keep posting it here
let me know what you guys think about this idea and if anyone else does this

I think that's a great idea! I know a lot of people do that, reward themselves when they reach certain goals. I haven't really been doing that, but I think it's a great idea. Posting here when you reach a goal will probably keep you motivated as well.

Well Shop Girl - That would better than rewarding yourself with a food cheat! So I may have to adopt that plan!

I agree with everyone else. That is a great idea. For me, I would love to buy myself a reward if I accomplish my goal for the week.

Over the years, I have done several kinds of rewards....food rewards, items, money, activities, etc.

BOY you should have seen us at Lonestar too.. the whole table was covered in appetizers and steaks and stuff hehe. I still have a picture somewhere, see if I can find it.


This is a terrific idea, Heidi. Once I really get back on track at the first of the year, I'll probably join in, too!
