For you or for your DGC?
Your rewards sound pretty huge (massage? There goes $60.)- seems to me that smaller rewards for small accomplishments (like the sticker on the calendar) are more effective.
The effectiveness of an award depends heavily on personality. DD is very motivated by videos, video games, or having someone play a board game with her. *I* on the other hand, find that stuff incredibly un-interesting, and I'm pretty hard to motivate with rewards of any sort. I like coffee a lot, but I already drink it every time I want it!
The bigger rewards would be for big milestones (and shorter massages are less $!).
This is for ME. I HAVE to lose weight. Tory was so precious to say i looked fine in the pic on fb but
- it's just not true! She must wear the same colored glasses my bff does.
Coffee would be a FOOD reward - not appropriate and it would be an iced mocha for me, NOT something i drink all the time. You're right that most of the "rewards" are things i'd just buy for myself when i want them! Except the bigger things like the massage! So, i think i can work towards the bigger rewards... maybe. Ugh, i'm too brain dead right now to even think about it!
