Have you recently hit a weight loss goal? Are you looking to celebrate your achievement without rushing out to buy new (and potentially costly) clothing? Then have we got the gear for you!
Celebrating milestones is a great way to reinforce your weight loss journey — rewarding yourself after you hit each goal will make you feel good and keep you chasing those feelings of joy and satisfaction. With that in mind, here are five ideas for blokes looking to celebrate their wins without purchasing new duds.
Game On!
Is there a new release video game you’ve been dying to try out for a while now? Celebrate your milestone by splashing out on that triple-A title and veg out for a bit. Sure, it may be a little pricey, but after all your hard work, you deserve a treat – just promise us not to become a couch potato, though!
Take A Short Trip
Who doesn’t like a holiday? Celebrate your success with a short trip away somewhere. If the weather’s warm, head to a beach resort. If it’s a little chillier, go to the country and enjoy some time by the fire. Whatever you do, make sure it’s something that YOU enjoy!
Go Out For A Nice (Healthy) Meal
No doubt you’ve done a lot of meal preparation during your weight loss journey. With that in mind, we think it’s worth taking a night off and treating yourself to dinner at your favourite restaurant. Just remember though, you don’t want to fall back into bad habits, so make sure whatever you eat is relatively healthy and that you maintain some portion control.
Get Some Fancy Booze
Have you ever wanted to try one of those fancy bottles of scotch that are kept in those locked cases behind the counter at your local bottle-o? They’re so bloody pricey that they must be good, right? If you’ve recently hit a weight loss milestone, why not grab a bottle of Johnnie Walker Blue rather than a slab of VB or a six-pack of UDL? It’ll probably last you a while too, because let’s face it, you’re unlikely to mix $235 whiskey with Coke and chug it down in 10 seconds.
P.S. Drink responsibly!
Go For Gold (Class)!
Sure, going to the movies isn’t anything special. But when you shell out for those reclinable chairs, a glass of bubbly and schmick choc top, suddenly, a trip to the pictures starts to feel pretty luxurious. Just don’t go too hard with the junk food.
