I'm so glad I came across this idea on a blog! I put them right in my bathroom so I have to see them every single day. It's really going to help me stay on track. I got everything at Wal-Mart for under 10 dollars. It would've been cheaper but I wanted the pretty stickers. :D

I am so excited to move the little marbles over! (Oddly enough, there is about 100 marbles in there, doesn't look like that much though!)

    Thanks Vanna :))

    Aiwich, maybe you could do hours of exercise, or days you've worked out.

    I need this in my KITCHEN! :laugh:

    Seriously, I love the idea of the visual reminder - I may steal it if I can figure out how to keep the kids from turning it into a toy. :huh:

    That's a really neat idea :) I've wanted to do that for some time. My girlfriend and I keep a small mason jar and rolls of pennies next to it...every time we pass up a temptation or make a healthy lifestyle choice (gym, walk, etc) we get a penny in the jar. And then, when we fill it, we get to do something fun, like a movie trip, etc.
