MILESTONE REWARDS TO MOTIVATE ME

For making it through Week 4 of C25K: Earbuds from Skullcandy. I think I must have the weirdest shape ears in all of humankind. I have never found earbuds that fit me correctly. Everyone raves about Skullcandy because they conform to the ear canal for a more custom fit.  (Projected date: July)

JULY 11 - I decided I was happy enough with the headphones that I have. Instead, I got a Nike+ sportsband, a gadget that calculates distance, time, pace, and calories burned.

For staying on plan with exercise and signing up to run a 5K: New running shoes. (Projected date: September)

SEPT. 24 - Brooks Ghost. My feet are in love. :) 

When I get to size 14 (about 195#): This dress (or something similar). I want to wear a dress and not look lumpy and old. (Projected date: October)

Not gonna happen in October. I'm in a size 14 at 219# but this body is NOT ready for a dress.  New projected date: Valentine's Day


For making it to the 170s: A deep tissue/hot rock massage and sauna.

New projected date: May

For being smoke-free for six months: An orange sapphire ring. I've wanted this since forever. With the money I save not buying cigarettes, I can afford it. And it will be a constant reminder of kicking a 25 year habit! (Projected date: January 2011)

FAIL. I still have not quit smoking entirely. Bad bad bad.

FOR MAKING GOAL:
Custom-made jeans
This LBD
Shoes from Naughty Monkey
A mad shopping spree at Victoria's Secret
(Projected date: March 2011)

New projected date: July 2011
