Reward Yourself!

It's time to give yourself a reward after that intense workout or after joining my Bootcamp activities.

* Why not treat yourself to a day at the salon or spa. A pedicure, facial, or massage can really keep your spirits high. Or better yet, treat yourself to a high-end haircut or new color to accentuate your newfound confidence. Afterall, you deserve to be pampered with all these treatments.

* Hit the stores and purchase something you’ve been eyeing, like an outfit, a new book, or a piece of jewelry. Or invest in something that will help you reach your goals, such as walking sneakers, a new workout apparel, or renew your Bootcamp membership.

* Have a "night out" that doesn't revolve around dinner. Instead, after a simple meal at home, go out to a movie or play. Another idea is to spend a day doing something active: Sign up for tennis lessons, try rock climbing, walk around a museum, or rent a bike and explore a new neighborhood. I bet you'll have a great adventure.

* Buy yourself some fresh-cut flowers to decorate your home or office. It’ll brighten up your day and serve as a reminder of your weight loss success.

* Take a bubble bath and enjoy some quiet "me" time to help you focus and stay on track.

Remember, these simple rewards is a MUST at least a month. These are good motivations as well so you could exert more effort in losing some pounds.
