I don't mean the above question to come across as "I'll do this if you lose weight because i want you to" i mean it as "to show my support i'll get you something you want if you reach your target".
My bf has offered this to help me stick to plan. Just trying to decide what to ask for. Maybe a whole outfit. Even though what i'd really love but NEVER buy for myself is a cocktail advertised as the most expensive cocktail in Ireland! $80!!!!!!
I'd never spend that much money on one drink for myself....but he did say anything!!!:jester:

Well, we've done some talking about this actually. My DH is SO SUPPORTIVE. He has had the patience of a saint. He has come a long way in the 18 years we have been married. I have friends say to me things like, "You should see his face when you walk into the room, it just lights up" or, "You can tell by the way he talks about you that he is head over heals in love with you."
I don't say this to brag. In fact, it's just the opposite. It's humbling to me because I wonder if I would be so loving to him if I was the thin one and he was the one trying over and over and over again to be at a healthy weight. You know how it is....they see you struggle and you can see it is just killing them.
Anyhoo......(sorry for blabbing):rolleyes: All this is to say that he will be SO THRILLED FOR ME that he is willing to reward me BIG TIME! Get this. When I reach my "100 lbs off" mark, I am getting another puppy. This time I will be getting the lap dog that I have always wanted (we have a lovely 55lb samoyed but she ain't no lap dog!:p )
But what you say will be the grand prize for the 160lb total loss??? A weekend at the Grand Floridian Spa!! :teeth:
WOOOOOOOOOOOHOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!
Fortunately,(or unfortunately) he has a lot of time to save up for this. As of this morning I have 33lbs gone. It might be a long time coming, but it will be well worth it.
So, anyone else??:D

Um, not really...BUT I promised HIM something when I reach my goal weight. He will throw away his chewing tobacco!!! :teeth:
I told him that if I can lose the weight then HE can quit that nasty habit!! I hope and pray he will do it too!!!
I did mention the fact to him that when I lose the weight I'll need a "whole new wardrobe" and he nodded his head up and down...and I told him the credit cards would get a good workout and he just smiled...::yes::
