10 Ways to Reward Yourself Without Eating Anything
When on a weight loss program, it is difficult to stay away from food. It sure is. But one of the best ways to stick to your weight loss program is to reward yourself everytime you achieve a milestone. But then, how do you reward yourself if you are on a weight loss program and can't dig your teeth into your favorite food.
Well, nothing to worry. Here are 10 ideas which you could use the next time you feel like rewarding yourself minus binging on your favorite food:
1. Take a Weekend Trip
A little vacation never harms anyone. In fact, it will surely do you good. A weekend getaway at a quiet place with your favorite people or a solo trip would be a good way to reward yourself for all the hard work you have put in on yourself.
2. Go on a Shopping Spree
Now that you have lost some weight, it’s time to get rid of the old jeans and baggy shirts and re-do your wardrobe. Buy yourself new dresses and don’t forget to invest in some new workout clothes.
3. Buy Aromatherapy Oils
Aromatherapy oils help you relax and sleep better at night. Go to your nearby store and indulge in some nice aromatherapy oils. Because a good night’s sleep helps lose weight.
4. New Hair Cut
A new hair cut is an instant way to boost your confidence and makes for a good reward. Check online for new styles and see what will suit you. If you already have a hairstyle that you like, indulge in some hair spa or hair color/highlights.
5. Cooking Lessons
Being on a strict diet can really get you down. A good way to reward yourself is to take up cooking lessons and learn healthier ways to cook your favourite desserts and cuisines that don’t pile on calories.
6. Manicure or Pedicure
Clean, buffed nails always look good, whether you are a guy or a girl. It’s also a good way to relax and wind down. If you can afford to indulge in some manicure or pedicure at a spa, nothing like it. Or ask a friend to give you one at home.
7. Personal Training
Now that you have lost some weight and feel more energized and confident than before, it’s time to indulge in some personal training session and reinvigorate your workout sessions. Learn some new moves, change your program or just do it to motivate yourself.
8. Spa Facial
Exercise and diet can, at times, take a toll on your skin. A facial session can rejuvenate your skin and you will feel beautiful. Grab a friend, head to a salon, and get yourself a new feel. You could even ask your friend to do it at home for you.
9. Massage
The best way to spoil yourself is to go for a relaxing massage therapy. After all those rigorous workout sessions, your muscles tend to get sore and what better way to reward yourself than a therapeutic massage.
10. Makeup Lessons
Many cosmetic brands and salons offer makeup lessons or makeovers. Learn some new tricks and step out looking more gorgeous.
