The idea of a "reward" is counter to the thinking you need to have, which is that you have made a permanent change to your lifestyle. Rewarding with food would seem to be especially wrong.

Lose the idea that you have a "goal". Every goal weight I've ever aimed for, only lasted a very short time. Holding your goal weight is really much, much harder... and requires permanent change.
