Are You Losing All Your Marbles?

Use marbles or rocks in a jar to count pounds you've lost says celebrity trainer Heidi Powell - Learn more at https://heidipowell.net/2779

In Chantell’s episode of Extreme Weight Loss, she used 2 mason jars and marbles to help her visualize her first goal. One jar held  91 marbles, each representing 1 pound, that she needed to lose, to reach that first milestone. The other, empty, awaiting to be filled!

As she lost each pound, she moved a marble to the second jar, and continued to move marbles  from one to the other, as she worked off each and every one of those pounds, helping her visually see her progress. She was literally watching herself lose her marbles! 🙂

Creating a way to help you see how you are doing as you work on a goal can help you see greater success and serve as a reminder of what you are focused on attaining. Keep it where you will walk past it and see it regularly to help you stay on track.

You can fill a jar not only with marbles, but with anything similarly small like decorative rocks or even buttons! Mason jars are inexpensive, and if you don’t have any readily handy, check the goodwill for fun jars and containers to hold “your weight”.  I love these darling apothecary jars filled with pebbles! The possibilities are endless as you create a way to visually track your goal. You can even include your favorite motivational quote to give you additional inspiration!

  1. Soon after embarking on my own weight loss journey, I watched this episode. Immediately after the episode I whipped up my own version, using two small cube-like glass containers with decorative rocks (previously home made centrepieces). The centrepieces remind me of my sister-in-law as I made them for her bridal shower – and she is super fit and inspiring! I find it is so motivating and reminds me of my goal – and cute! Great idea! 🙂

  2. I use the little heart glass pebbles…to remind me of the benefits to my heart and to remind me of the loved ones I can be around for longer for….

  3. Hi Heidi,

    I watched the episode w/Chantelle tracking her weight loss w/marbles in a jaw. I think I will start that this weekend. Thanks.
