or exciting to report. The weight on the home scale is back down to where I was pre-turkey holiday feast, which is good. I’m hoping to make it back to my 10% goal at WI on Thursday, so that I can receive the coveted key chain.
I’ve done pretty well over the weekend but had some splurges too. Currently I’m within my Flex Points for the week with 4 to spare and 2 days left. I’m planning to be within my daily points today and tomorrow - so hopefully I won’t need the remaining FP’s. If I can accomplish my goal of an entire week OP, I will be so excited for myself! This will have been the first week completely within ”policy” in my entire 4 month journey on WW’s. Who knows, if I keep this up I might actually be at goal, heart healthy at 140 lbs, by the end of the first quarter ‘08!
I’m trying to think of a mini reward for myself if I’m able to stay within my points this week. I keep drawing a blank… will have to ponder this a bit. I don’t want to spend a lot of money (more like $10 or free even). What are some of the simple ways you reward yourself? I would love to hear your ideas!
Thanks!

I was thinking about your mini goal reward idea. Mine have gotten pricy (pedicures, facials, etc), so I started thinking about what would be $10 or less…new nail polish, movie theater ticket, Christmas socks, kitchen gadget, yummy smelling candle (or bath bubbles) to enjoy during a long hot bubble bath, an ornament for your tree that you normally wouldn’t splurge $10 on, book (used books from Amazon are generally

…less than $10. I think I’ll write a post on my site as a reminder. Otherwise I won’t remember. Have a great day!

I lost the weight for the wedding but in the meantime realized how badly I needed to lose it for my health. So thank you for the reminder of that. It wasn’t just the goal of fitting in the dress, and I had forgotten that. Just being healthy can be my motivation and I don’t think I had realized that (until I read your post). I knew joining this community would be a good thing
December 4, 2007 @ 4:44 pmGo buy a mask scrub thingie at the drug store along with some peppermint lotion and treat yourself to a facial and pedicure. Might be more than $10 but it will last more than once so you could “invest” in all the stuff now and then treat yourself regularly :). Hope you get the key chain soon!
December 5, 2007 @ 1:17 pmGood job at staying OP! I totally agree with the others that you need some way of awarding yourself.
