Thirteen Weight Loss Rewards

When it comes to losing weight, rewards can be an important factor in keeping you working towards your goals. However, if you’re like me, you have a hard time coming up with rewards for yourself.

To help you out, today’s Thursday Thirteen is a list of weight loss reward ideas. Enjoy!

Thirteen Weight Loss Rewards

1. Books! I have regular book rewards on my list.
2. Road trip. I love road trips and have a few of these for rewards on my list.
3. Jewelry. Maybe in the form of a new piercing(s), a necklace, a bracelet, a charm for a charm bracelet…
4. A massage. Need I explain this?
5. Manicure. Even a bit of a buff and polish can leave you feeling like a million.
6. Burn your fat clothes! Someone suggested I work some sort of ritual like this into my rewards.
7. Declare a ‘me’ day where you get to relax and do whatever else you want for the whole day.
8. Buy tickets. Concert, play, whatever event catches your fancy.
9. Spa day. Yes, this is different from the ‘me’ day. This is a day with the intention of pampering. Yum.
10. A new toy. How long has it been since you bought yourself a cool new gizmo or gadget?
11. A weekend (or day) away with a friend/spouse.
12. Clothes shopping. If you have a good amount of weight to lose, you’ll have to do it eventually…
13. Start planning for baby! This is part of my final goal reward and is something that has gotten me through many of my morning gym workouts.
