Me, my mom and my sister-in-law want to put together a weight loss challenge to help the 3 of us stay motivated and complete against eachother for weight loss goals. The problem is, none of us can really afford to put any money in to a pot for a "reward"... but I want there to be SOMETHING that we can all look forward to in addition to getting in shape. Does anyone have any ideas?

How about something you can do for each other. Like the two who lose the least weight have to clean the windows in the home of the one who looses the most, or they cook a certain number of low calorie dishes. Or it could be something fun like giving the "winner" a mani/pedi. Of course it depend if you all live together or not or how far apart you are too. I am assuming you are within driving distance of each other.

If you live together you could do someone elses chores or take care of a pet or child.

There are tons of things that cost little or nothing. Just start brainstorming and you will come up with something that works for you.

Good luck, a challenge always motivates me and it sounds like there will be no "loser" in this one.

manicures and pedicures for your loved ones, done by your hands, with your bucket of warm soapy water, the scrubbys for your feet, a nice massage for all hands and feet, then a nice manicure, buffed or painted (to the hilt, like at a salon)...then lotion afterwards.

i used to do this with my mom and dad, now i give manicures to my hubby and my daughter...they both love it. hubby does his feet, but i do my daughters too, shes the only 5 year old with pretty toes! :)

its caring, its nice to do, its easy and requires nothing unless you guys dont have any tools at home. you can get one for like 10bucks at the local grocery and some polish for fun, esp summer colors you can show off!

taking over cooking for a week, for dinners or lunch since its summer....cleaning the bathrooms, taking their chore or whatever it is you guys do at home in regards to cleaning, giving that person a break for a week! i would love it if my hubby would clean for me if i lost 10 more pds before my birthday in august. .....but he likes me this way, doesnt want me to lose...lol...so im on my own here, but i get support always and positive reinforcement from him for my efforts.
