I was putting a stick of butter on the butter dish when I noticed that the package weight was one pound and as I was holding that one pound in my hand I thought Wow thats heavy and would I want to carry that around with me all day. Well no I wouldn't so I put it right in the front of the frig and now every time I think I'll just cheat a little I pick up that one pound and then put it right back in the frig and concentrate on something else. seems silly right. It's working for me I just think how six of those look and feel, and I'm pleased that i don't have to carry six of those around with me anymore.
I don't think it's silly. If it works to help you in your journey towards a healthier you, it's a great idea. :thumbup:
