    First up, congrats on losing the weight thats pretty damn good going. Having a reward to aim for is a really great way to motivate yourself. Personally I love the Orbea range and for 1500 large ones you could get a lovely Onix 2009...

    Hope that helps. many people have different views, this is mine. I'm working two jobs at the moment, which sometimes is pretty hard to stomach. Whats my reward? This bad boy...

    But thats a little over £2k. Well worth working for :)

    Good luck, let us know what you go for and how the weight loss continues.
