Day 16 of 31 days of bullet journal spreads for writers and you.

Here’s a spread that’s not meant to be done on a monthly basis, because I’m pretty it’s going to be way too hard to lose 31 pounds in a month. And if you do, there might be something wrong with you.

What’s nice about this spread is the simplicity of it. You can put up as many blocks, or whatever shape you desire, down to equal the number of pounds you want to lose. You simply write each pound starting from current weight down to goal weight, or whatever weight you feel is good to track for this specific spread.

For daily reference, not monthly.

This is a spread that you would refer to repeatedly. Many bullet journalists find they go through two bullet journals a year. So, there’s a good chance it would take you longer than even six months to lose the 49 pounds I set this spread up to track. Once you got down to whatever pounds you are, you would start your next spread detailing the rest of your desired weight loss journey.

As a side-note, this spread would also be perfect for recording your words if you wanted. You just need to remember to only make as many shapes as there are days for the month. And then you would write the number in each square for the day.

Materials

This weight loss spread takes very little in the way of materials, much like the last one. A ruler and a couple of pens or markers in the color you desire.

You may want to use a stencil for the shapes. I know I would prefer to use something to making my job easier over using a ruler. The perfectionist in me likes to stick her nose out during some of the fiddly bits of bullet journaling. However, because I’m not a very meticulous person, I have to fight those perfectionist urges.

I think the spread would look even better with a painted background. And obviously if you did, you would need more markers and/or your paints and brushes.
