I'm very interested to learn...What non-food rewards do you use to treat yourself once you have achieved a goal?

I bought myself a pair of bright orange ballet flats last mini-goal. Orange is my favourite color, so it was a real treat.

Next minigoal, I'm thinking some hot high-heels.

i HAD to buy something nice, nothing fit anymore!
i guess i haven't been much into rewarding myself outwardly. i have been happy over the small achievements and the congrats i got from fellow losers was enough to keep on the losing track.

some girls go with getting a pedicure or getting their nails done.

i've seen posts of going to a tanning bed and going to a movie as a reward.
