Encouragement for the journey

I ran across a fun website tonight.  It can give you a visual of what you will look like at your goal weight... giving you something to focus on as you walk this journey to better health.  http://modelmydiet.com  Check it out :)

Also, I've decided that I need a visual to help see how I'm doing; especially during those times that I may be losing slowly or even at a plateau.  It would be nice to have a way of remembering just how far I've come and get less discouraged when things aren't going as well as I'd like.  I'm going to keep two mason jars: one with 70 glass marbles to represent the 70 pounds I want to lose, the other empty.  As I lose weight, I will move a marble from the first jar into the second for each pound that I lose.  It will be a huge milestone when the second jar is more full than the first:)

I haven't decided yet, as to what my smaller milestones will be, or the rewards I will get when I achieve them.... but, I am giving it a lot of thought.

Still waiting and hoping that Weight Watchers runs a special soon.  Fingers crossed ;)
