Dollar Tree Dieting

 This was me last May, 215 pounds, a size 2X, and really ready for some changes.

This is me now, 145 pounds and a size 12.

 And stuck.

 I have 15 pounds left, and I seem to be stuck.

Did I mention stuck?

When you have a goal, sometimes a visual is handy, 

and I found one on Pintrest that I fell in love with.

 This is an easy one. You'll need:

Rubber bands

2 Dollar Tree vases

A bag of Dollar Tree marbles 

Stick on letters

Scrapbooking stickers that correspond with your goal 

My goal is a new bathing suit!

 Put the rubber bands around the vases as a guide for your letters to keep them neat and straight.

 Press your message on the vases. Mine say

Pounds To Go

and

Pounds Lost.

 Add embellishments.

In Pounds Lost, I added 70 marbles to represent the butt I no longer haul behind me.

 In Pounds To Go, I counted out 15 more marbles.

I'm hoping for an empty Pounds To Go vase in 2 months.

 Will the visual help?

These suckers need to MOVE IT.

I have my eye on the perfect black one piece at Target.

Oh, you will be mine...
