I think something that I need to be better about is rewarding myself for keeping with it and working hard. Also - I need to be better at not buying things the second I decide I want them.
Hence - a reward schedule. Now, I haven't quite figured out all of the rewards - or what the "schedule" will end up being... But I've figured out a few things.
At the end of this week - if I'm down my goal 6 pounds: new workout outfit. I found a shirt and shorts I really like this weekend. And I managed to not buy it on the spot. Go me! :) So we'll see if I get to pick it up this weekend.
Other planned rewards:
- 90 minute massage. I was thinking that at 15 pounds I'll reward myself with that. I'll be at my "halfway" point, so it seems like a good spot to give myself a big reward.
- New wedge sandals. Not sure when I'll reward myself with those. But I've been wanting them for awhile, and it seems like a good reward for all the work (AND show off my legs).
- New wardrobe. This'll be once I hit my target weight - because I'm thinking very few pieces of my clothing will still fit... at least not my pants (in the *good* way).
Now the part that I need to figure out - some mini-rewards to trickle along the way. Like every 5 pounds I get something. I just need to figure out what that something is... I'm open to suggestions - so if you wanna toss a few my way, please do!
Until next time - happy stick-to-itive-ness! :)
