Weight Loss Rewards

It's been since February that I've reached a weight loss goal.  In fact, I've digressed quite a bit (this shouldn't be news!).  Well, the other day I was in Target and I found these super cute rose gold bangles that I <i>want</i>.<br /><br />Naturally, I cannot find a picture of them anywhere to share.  I <i>have </i>to have them.  Rose gold is my <i>color</i>.  They would go perfectly with that <a href="http://the-big-weight.blogspot.com/2012/04/happy-28th-birthday.html" target="_blank">new watch</a> Joel gave me for my 28th birthday, or my <a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiVXjtFX_i_UOyMly-Uj1_FaaKTgHH7e6d3YGddK9Go-cnhIde9rFd6RAOgYlEd_KZUv3DkIks2pNlQUO0MjQYH6b2_qf0odVMa2ZHU8MzjzIt9zslRDqbK5eqNH2Cd7OZ9FJGWrytXjdU/s1600/053_53+%282%29.JPG" target="_blank">wedding rings</a>, or my cross necklace!<br /><br />Can you sense the urgency through your computer screen for how much I desire those bracelets??  Well, they will be mine tomorrow if I have a loss - <i>any </i>loss (well, more than a pound)!<br /><br />If there is no loss, then I will reward myself next week if there is a loss.  I haven't been perfect all week, given the travel to Pennsylvania and various opportunities to eat out with the holiday.  However, I feel that I still had a fairly decent week overall, especially with the lack of sweet treats.  <br /><br />I am going to get back to my next <a href="http://the-big-weight.blogspot.com/p/goals.html" target="_blank">real goal</a> soon.  I am. <br /><br />I will lose another 30 lbs by March 2013.  I will.  <br /><br /><div style="text-align: center;"><span style="color: #351c75;">*************************************</span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: left;">Yesterday, our wedding license came in the mail!  I am so excited to get to the Social Security Office and get my name legally changed once and for all.  It's no fun still signing my maiden name on everything.  I think marriage will feel even more real once the legal stuff is done.</div><div style="text-align: left;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: left;"><i>Then</i>, Joel surprised me with a wedding gift!  He couldn't wait until I had his gift ready (which hasn't even shipped yet), he just <i>had </i>to give me mine :).  </div><div style="text-align: left;"><br /></div><table align="center" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" class="tr-caption-container" style="margin-left: auto;
