Cheerios Be Gone

I fixed the Cheerio binging problem-- it was as easy as taking them downstairs to the kitchen an not having them in my room.
Simple yet effective.

Another blog I read has posted an interesting game that she is trying out, and so far it has been really successful for her. (She also has had the LapBand surgery, so I'm not sure if this will work for me too, but I'm willing to give it a chance)

It is a point system game. I created my own spin...

1 point = no snacks between breakfast and lunch
1 point = 90 carbohydrates or less a day
1 point = not weighing in
1 point = 6 bottles or glasses of water a day
2 points = no snacks between lunch and dinner
2 points = no snacks after dinner
2 points = 1 hour of exercise a day

total points to be earned a day: 10 points
total per week: 70 points

Redemption:
35 points: RedBox rental
70 points: new book (paperback)
100 points: new art supply
150 points: new item of clothing
200 points: massage from boyfriend
250 points: $50 spent on clothing
300 points: Trip to NYC Art Museum
350 points: Trip to a Philly Art Museum
400 points: Trip to Gettysburg


Rules:
If no points are earned in a day, balance goes to zero
Partial points can be redeemed (if 100 points are in the bank, I could redeem only 70 and
keep 30 in the bank)
Points can only be redeemed following a 10 point day
Points earned each day must be posted to blog or written down to be held accountable!
