Weight Loss Jar

It feels good to share your weight loss journey with others in real life {i.e. not in the blogger's world!}.  Once upon a time I would have disagreed with this, but today I feel differently.  Sure, I've gotten negative feedback and/or unwarranted comments from others in the past, but lately that hasn't been the case.  In fact, I think I owe a lot of my success to the encouragement I've gotten from others!<br /><br />I shared recently with a friend the story behind my bracelet.  She's been so supportive ever since!  She is actually the one who gave me this idea:<br /><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg7ukhf_FNaKgm8zfnaz70ObKJXVI48Xfk0Hs7efEXb91Ta9xaF6-Rv0Ea_s_HdX2y35UQKcicVSEcusRljavfONoESEfO9quXLkMbk_h-HLKRiU2ITmBQublFLImplHQWX1G8xxL0way8/s1600/weight+loss+beads.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="330" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg7ukhf_FNaKgm8zfnaz70ObKJXVI48Xfk0Hs7efEXb91Ta9xaF6-Rv0Ea_s_HdX2y35UQKcicVSEcusRljavfONoESEfO9quXLkMbk_h-HLKRiU2ITmBQublFLImplHQWX1G8xxL0way8/s400/weight+loss+beads.jpg" width="400" /></a></div><br />I would have gotten smaller jars to really show the true difference if I could have more accurately visualized the end result, but I still like them.<br /><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjsNaN08rji3yVa-6z7aekojEk6H8BmczRNwGb606hnTMFvIbp2RrqPL1WSMzHD_a5aRadhTKH7RwCo-yU9JrqBSPKMuCEuMhUxNcF__HsuHUkkE63xsI8W2h5gB2SdhBV1yNsHaIVXhj0/s1600/weight+loss+bead+jar.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="400" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjsNaN08rji3yVa-6z7aekojEk6H8BmczRNwGb606hnTMFvIbp2RrqPL1WSMzHD_a5aRadhTKH7RwCo-yU9JrqBSPKMuCEuMhUxNcF__HsuHUkkE63xsI8W2h5gB2SdhBV1yNsHaIVXhj0/s400/weight+loss+bead+jar.jpg" width="336" /></a></div><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjtpBgeHIn_0kVyg4nWC5KpwW3le5Fa5vEd5emhId7ae6ax2YoaysDTU_kzPtZvAwcKKguKIxCxeLpSTx8zn2axTvlmXc590PJ1Er7YxeDakYQxlrVvXZP6UiOrtiiNyMWSEYlwrpgRdmo/s1600/weight+loss+bead+jar+2.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="396" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjtpBgeHIn_0kVyg4nWC5KpwW3le5Fa5vEd5emhId7ae6ax2YoaysDTU_kzPtZvAwcKKguKIxCxeLpSTx8zn2axTvlmXc590PJ1Er7YxeDakYQxlrVvXZP6UiOrtiiNyMWSEYlwrpgRdmo/s400/weight+loss+bead+jar+2.jpg" width="400" /></a></div><br />She found the idea on <a href="http://pinterest.com/pin/204702745532718263/" target="_blank">Pinterest</a>.  I am a big fan of these "anchor" methods to weight loss.  I like having a visual of what I've accomplished so far.  I also like that I have a tangible item to move from one "side" of the journey to another.  <br /><br /><b style="color: #351c75;">How do you feel about anchor methods for visualizing your own success?  Do you have any neat ideas to share?  I can never have too many :)</b>
