Instructions
Use whatever clear container you like, making sure your items fit into it well depending on how many pounds you want to lose.
Cut out the tags you want to use, then attach them to your jar with some ribbon.
Make your weight tracker jar or container any size you want!
Cotton balls are a great counting item! The details for making this soda bottle container with lid can be found on our Get Organized with Plastic Bottles post.
Use colored sand to track your progress. Use a small scoop to measure the sand. 1 scoop equals 1 lb of weight. 
Mason jars are perfect for tracking weight loss. 
These are two small caper bottles we washed out. 
Shot glasses and beads.
Two small tea light candle holder with beads. 
This is really a clever idea for tracking, a great visualization. I have to share this with my brother who is a consultant for his clients.
Thanks for sharing your idea on Oh My Heartsie Girls WW this week. Hope to see you next week!!

Thanks Karren!
What a fun idea!! I might need to make some like this for the money my son needs to earn for a car, too! 🙂 Thank you for sharing with us at the #HomeMattersParty
That’s a wonderful idea!
I. Love. This. Idea. It’s such a fun and positive way to lose weight!I know there’s many of us out there who are visual people. And seeing those rocks, buttons, sand, etc. add up, is like a double dose of motivation. Another awesome perk is the jars can be used for other goals as well. I’m pinning this bad boy! I found you on the Jenny Evolution link-up! Fantastic post:-)
Thanks Katie for stopping by and for your kind words… and of course for pinning! Ü
