1st Stone Pressie

[JanBow]

I'm a firm believer in rewards for losing weight/reaching goals lol and am therefore rewarding myself for each stone I lose, which is nice of me LOL plus hubby has promised me a Kindle when I get to goal and have lost 3½ stone.

So on Friday I went and had a helix piercing, which is the one at the top of the ear as I've wanted it done for ages, so although it was a bit of a painful reward I'm very happy with it

 

[are we there yet?]

I totally agree it's a good idea, I have been rewarding myself for the stone weight loss too, I throw my big clothes out and get a new outfit a month, I brought a slendertone for my first stone which i use nearly everyday, and I brought a cross trainer for my second stone... (still to be used ..opps). I use to reward myself with food, glad I'm getting out of that habit. What will your next reward be?

Great idea. Will have to see if I have lost anything after my 1st week on Saturday and then start thinking about mini rewards

I mainly get shoes along the way, usually needed as my feet have shrunk!!

Think I'm going to have a pedicure for my final Halloween goal ... Do have ny eye on some leopard shoes from marks

 

[stephanees]

I have a pandora bracelet and was buying myself a glass bead for every stone I lost, I could then wear it and it would remind of what I've achieved

I got a bit of catching up to do tho, have only got one and I'm nearly at a six stone loss!

Not sure yet, I'm thinking about a small tattoo to go on my foot (I may be closer to 50 than 20 but I'm not growing old gracefully LOL) or maybe a massage or something like that, although that may be my 3rd stone as I won't feel so embarrassed about my body then. Now go & get on that cross trainer! LOL x

Go for it, anything that helps the motivation is a good idea in my book

Ooh yes a pedicure sounds nice. When I lost 3 stone last time I did Cambridge, my feet went down a size, you don't really think about your feet putting on weight but it does go on all over of course.

That's a lovely idea and real reminder of what you've achieved - now go shopping and get those gorgeous beads! x

Your right about the feet getting smaller when losing weight, at my usual weight i was a 5 1/2 to 6 at present I'm a 7 - 8!

I go online everyday to money saving experts forum "quick grabbit while you can" to find any bargains, just got uggs from office £60 instead of £220, body shop spend £20 get£10 off, Disney store deals, and today there a one day deal for Clarins beauty flash balm £14 instead of £28, bargain!!

I may be missing the point of treating myself at every stone lost, opps, eke I need to step away from the computer and get on that cross trainer!! lol

 

[slim1day]

After losing a stone I treated myself to a cross-trainer; which (rubs halo) I have used everyday since. I started off at 10 mins at level 1 and am now doing 20 mins at level 4 everyday.
Still trying to think what to treat myself with for my 2 stone loss; hoping to reach that goal by end of the month.

 

[JanBow]

Ooh liking the sound of that website, will be heading over a lookie

Well done Alison on your cross trainer, you're getting on really well! xx

 

[ladybird777]

I reward myself with new underwear. I just love buying smaller knickers.

 

[JanBow]

Oh yes, but then buying anything smaller is lovely. We're about to go into our winter uniforms in work & I've ordered smaller sizes, felt good

I'm enjoying the feeling at the moment of my underwear actually fitting me and I'm not squeezing into things as I was a month ago!

 

[ladybird777]

Yes its great not having that feeling of them disappearing under my gut

 

[willowmcg]

Well done everyone ordering sizes smaller!! whatt a geeat feeling!!

 

[RebekahR]

LOL only thing I'm not enjoying is having to buy new shoes, I had a lovely collection of size 6/7! LOL

I'm going to be treating myself to each stone lost just not sure what with. My first mini goal though is to get through a week
