    I mentioned this idea to my boyfriend last night, and he agreed if I did it (could be retroactive to the first of December), he would match with money ($5 for each pound) to go to clothes at my goal weight. I need to go get some stones today!



    I saw this a while ago too and decided I'd have a jar with £1 for every lb lost ... I also mentioned that my boyfriend could match the amount ... I'm still waiting for a reply to that one!

    FYI.... They don't take up near the space you'd think when you use the small stones. In my picture, there's 116 little stones between the two jars :) But I think I like that idea about using dollars!

    I'm definitely going to have to do these too! Thanks so much for the idea! (BTW, I managed to get my hubby to pay $20/pound lost... payable on Jan 1, 2013 and I have 106 pounds to lose!)

    This is very cool!!!! I want to do this! A variation is adding x amount of money and when I hit my goal I reward myself with whatever I have set my mind on. Clothes that fit, etc. :-D

    I do mine with money. I don't have pics but I pay myself for each pound, as a way to save money to get new clothes. I also know that with each pound, my friend has promised $3/lb up to 50 pounds,and $5/lb after that, so in a way I always keep myself remembering,the more I lose, the more money I get for new clothes ;)
