Reward Your Weight Loss Efforts With Flowers

Most of us know losing weight is hard work and for every personal milestone we reach, a celebration or treat is in order. Instead of reaching for food, treat yourself to some flowers!

You deserve it!

While someone I know was working hard to lose weight, she bought flowers for herself every week that she lost weight.

She didn’t go broke doing it either. She bought herself inexpensive bouquets at the supermarket. Then she took them home, put them in a vase, and kept them on the counter in her kitchen so she would be reminded of her weight loss accomplishments every time she walked into the kitchen. The flowers kept her from mindlessly putting into her mouth more than once.

So the next time you reach a weight loss goal, whether its 5 pounds or .5 pounds, buy flowers for yourself!

Buy Some Cute Socks as a Non Food Reward for Losing Weight

What’s the first thing most of us do to celebrate? It’s to stuff our faces with food, right?

But when we’re losing weight, going out and celebrating with a big meal is counterproductive.

Although I do my best to no longer say to myself “good job on losing weight – I’m going to go out for a huge banana split;” I still like to reward myself in some way for reaching a weight loss goal without spending a ton of money.

Why not socks? I found the cutest ones at LittleMismatched.com!

They’re sets of 3 socks that have complimentary colors and patterns but are each different. How fun is it to wear socks that don’t match but still kinda do match? It’s like being Punky Brewster! mismatched socks

My current favorites are the black/white anklets , the rings/dots anklets, and the peace/love knee high socks. mismatched socks mismatched socks

If you want to be even more wild and crazy (and completely original) you can build your own package of socks (and yes if you want to be boring you can buy 3 of the same sock and have a spare in case the washer eats one).

On the other hand, if you want to be a little more discreet you can buy sock liners that only you will know you’re wearing.

A set of 3 of these cute socks is currently only $8.

Plus check their online outlet for socks as little as $4.

Check them out! (and no, this glowing review is not something I am being compensated for – I just truly think their stuff is awesome!).

They have lots other cute and fun stuff besides socks too. I also adore their mismatched flip flops.
