Default What are your big Goals/Rewards for Reaching Your Goal?

Hey everyone - I wanted to contribute a more positive post so I thought I'd ask what everyone has planned for as a reward for themselves reaching their goal--I mean 100+ pounds is a lot to lose and takes much effort--you have to want to reward yourself!

That's what I'm thinking about tonight while I work some OT--which helps keep me away from the pop at home, lol--no worries it will get dumped when I get home tonight--anyway... I'm thinking about a week long vacation in the Ozark Lake area in Missorri or maybe a cabin somewhere in Colorado.

Anyone else care to share?
Jason

Oh I just love this question because I always get so excited thinking about finally reaching my goal and the reward at the end.

My plan is to have a "Freedom Dive" (that's what I'm calling it lol). I along with all of my closest supporters along this journey, including Tami (my personal trainer), Jessica and Connie (my workout buddies) and Stephanie (my sister) are going SKYDIVING together! I can't wait! It's a huge motivator for me. Connie has already promised to jump with me and the other's said they will for sure come and support me but might keep their feet on the ground. lol Anyway, that will be my ultimate reward for getting to my goal.

I think that not having to wear outsize clothes and bras would be reward enough for me! Just imagine being able to get clothes without having to shop around so much - fantastic.

I am considering a boob job I have had extremely heavy boobs since I was a teenager, and it would be great to be able to do some more active sports.

Default Re: What are your big Goals/Rewards for Reaching Your Goal?

Great question, every one needs a goal don't they? Just to be able to go to a restaurant and be able to sit in a skinny booth. Not to be worried and embarrassed they don't have a place big enough for this fat guy to sit down Clothes are not the most important thing for me. But to fit in some 36 size pants would be awsome. Havent seen them since i was 16!

Thanks Jason!

I want to go on a vacation with my husband! I haven't decided if I want to do a cruise, Vegas or Bahamas but no matter what, its gonna be fun!

I also am buying myself a new laptop when I get under 200 pounds! I am a total computer geek so that is a very exciting thing for me

Default Re: What are your big Goals/Rewards for Reaching Your Goal?

The most exciting thing for me to think about is throwing away all my fat clothes and buying new stuff... also, I've always wanted to have the body (and the confidence) to wear a bikini...

This is a really good question though -- I am going to think long and hard to come up with an amazingly exciting reward for when I get to my goal because I know that that will really motivate me!

However... being at my goal weight will actually be the biggest reward
