I started tracking my weight loss using a fun visual approach: moving marbles from a “goal” jar to an “accomplished” jar.

Using glass marbles, jars from Hobby Lobby, and a dry erase marker I set this up…

weight loss jars

For every pound I lose, I move a marble to my LOST jar. It’s an easy motivator and a fun way to keep track. I figured someday when I reach my goal, I can just erase the marker and use the jars for, well, whatever!

WHAT YOU NEED:

  • 2 craft jars
  • marbles
  • dry erase marker

WHAT YOU DO:

Using the dry erase marker, label the jars. Then place a marble for each pound you want to lose in one jar, and move them to the other as you lose them.
