I went ziplining, bought myself fitness clothes, got a membership for Zumba and swimming and yoga.   My friend bought me a fitness towel with inspirational sayings on it for my surgiversary.  You can see where my head is at these days, lol.

That is AWESOME!  LOL but I already have a gym membership that I use regularly and have joined the running room, planning on trying yoga this weekend.  I found the best towels evar! at the royal winter fair this year (thin but oh so absorbent)

I suppose I could have saved something for a special occasion, but my head is there too!

I bought a piece of jewelry to mark 100 lbs lost. Was something I really wanted and it was my motivation to get to that point so I could buy it.

This was something I was thinking I would do.  Because I yo-yo-ed so much I never bought anything expensive but I think around the 100 lbs mark I would like to gt something as a constant reminder.

That is in the cards once I am 'done' and stable at a weight.  And possibly after if I decide I need to do something about the bingo wings.  I would like an Art Deco style pheonix rising on my upper arm.
