So, I saw this type of thing before and thought it was a great idea.... I wasn't yet in to this big health / weight loss thing, so I kind of just let the idea slip my mind. Then I saw it last night on the Calorie Count facebook page and my creative side really wanted to have a set of these!
They are tracking jars! I went out last night (it was cold, windy, rainy, but the idea was already in my head and I wasn't going to be happy until I accomplished it).... I picked up 89 "pretty" rocks and pieces of beach glass to represent the 89lbs I want to lose. Then I decided to keep it simple and use up some alpha stickers that I had in my craft supplies that I will never use on my scrapbook pages anymore instead of cutting something from vinyl. So that easily and that quickly I had the idea in my head, got the supplies I needed to make it happen and had them made and ready to help me track my progress.
I think rather than giving you weekly photo updates when I weigh in, I will do photo updates once a month, this way you will see more of a change between pictures. So, every month, I look forward to sharing my progress, with this tracking device, my monthly measurements, and MAYBE, POSSIBLY, a monthly photo of me to see the progress being made. We'll see, either way I will take the photo for myself for my own records, we'll just have to see how brave I am at sharing with the rest of the world. :)
Hope you are all finding what works for you and getting to where you want to be, or at the very least are learning what things are right for you.
Until next time, keep smiling :)
