Special indulgences you do to pamper yourself.

I was wondering if there are some other ideas out there besides taking a long bubble bath, buying a special item to make yourself feel special. I have heard that we don't always take time out to pamper ourselves and that is an important part of successful weight loss.

but some new sexy lingerie. So great to feel sexy again!

5 more pounds lost and I'm giving myself a spa day. 10 pounds later is a tanning package (ah, to be tan in the winter). 10 after that is a personal trainer. 10 after that is my tattoo that i've been wanting for years.

I've also been known to go on thrift store shopping sprees for picture frames to make my space all warm and friendly and happy. or, in the winter getting myself something like a comfy blanket to cuddle under or flannel sheets for the bed. or allowing myself to sit in a room with lighted candles, listening to music, and sipping fancy tea, without feeling guilty for not being "productive".

I'm older or I should say mature and the wrinkles have really been getting me down. I indulged in a little botox and restalayne (think I spelled that correct) and I feel so much better about myself.I still have some wrinkles but it was such a boost to see some disapear even if its only temporary.It was a gift to myself for xmas and all my hard work.

Every couple of months, about three or so, I indulge in a day off from work and a massage at a nice spa. I take myself shopping and do whatever it is that I want to do... by myself!!! Sometimes I make it so I can grab lunch, or a coffee with a girlfriend I haven't seen in a while.

Well, I'm 41 years old and when I lost 30 pounds I got a tattoo! I always wanted one and now have the sexy shoulder to show it off! Guess my special pampering is quite permanent!

once i lose all 115 pounds I'm finishing my backpiece (tattoo), it's peter pan themed!

apart from that I usually buy myself new clothes, make-up or a purse. Little things, mostly.

I like manicures, a new book and staying up late to read it all by myself. Sometimes I buy a gift and give it to a friend with out telling who sent it. It gives me a real tee hee hee and glowing feeling. I get a new haircut.
