Reward me!


Okay, so I need some help brainstorming ways I can reward myself when I'm a good girl. Rewards that don't involve food - which, generally, have been my rewards in the past. Keep in mind that my day from 7:30 AM - 4:30 PM is 100% off limits, unless it's something that can work during school hours. Rewards budget per month is about $20. Any suggestions?

What about the reward being getting healthier and feeling better?

Or, you could get some tunes to put on your ipod to listen to on your walks...Or some new walking shoes or workout clothes. The reward should be connected with your goal in some way....

Well, of course there are those inherent rewards, which I am already enjoying. iPod tunes is a great idea, too! I am SO glad I have my iPod to listen to while I'm out there.

I was also thinking, maybe as a big reward (like the halfway mark, 15 lbs lost) of treating myself to a day off work + trip to the beach. I haven't yet taken a sick day so I wouldn't feel too guilty!

You could take any un-used reward money, and start a savings account for something big like a piano. I haven't heard you play in years!

I also have not heard myself play in years!

Fortunately, we DO have plans in place to purchase a piano, once we are in a more permanent home. :)

Liz thought one thing I could save up for is a new lens. Wooo, macro!
