It was posted below but I`m bringing back on top ....
My reward system right now is actually going to benifit someone else...
By putting 5 cents per minute I work out and then Hubby matching it, I`m only a few dollars away from reaching the maximum amount hubby and I agreed on a while back...So thanks to the work outs I`ve been doing, The Heart and Strokes foundation will be receiving a 100 dollar donation from me for the Mother/Daughter walk in september....Another proud tidbit is that when my daughter saw I was doing that kind of fundraising she asked if she could do her own..She bought material and has been making frindship barcelets she offers for a 1 dollar donation(she`s 11) ...I`m very proud to say she has already raised over 150 dollars for Heart and Strokes and still have over a month to go!!!
So rewards do not have to be food or materialistic items for ourself...It can benifit someone else....:D

What a fantastic idea - and what a great way to teach your daughter about charity and helping others!
I have a 10K coming up called "Homeless Soles" in the next couple of months that is a charity event. There's also a 3K walk with it. Maybe my daughter would be interested in doing that for charity!
