Problem: Article: Add 150 steps per day until you reach 1,000 by the end of the week.
Summary: Measure your steps per day using a pedometer. Choose your meals for the week from the menu plan and shop for the ingredients at your local supermarket. Weigh yourself at least once during the week. Write down the strategies that worked to help you reach your goals.

Problem: Article: Use an opaque material that completely blocks out light, like cardboard or a tarp, to cover the area where you want to remove your sod. Depending on your climate, it may take several months before the grass dies. If you live in a humid environment, paper products like cardboard might decay or disintegrate. If the weather report calls for rain, you may want to use a plastic tarp, instead. Avoid using sun blockers that have had colored ink on them. This kind of ink can be harmful to the balance of your soil and surrounding plant life. Wind, animals, or other natural forces might cause your sun blocker to move out of place. To prevent this from happening, you should use heavy objects, like large stones or bricks, to hold your sun blocker in place. Put your weights around the perimeter of your sun blocker. Even small amounts of sunlight filtering in from the edges can prolong the amount of time it takes for your sod to die of light deprivation. If you've waited long enough, your sod may be mostly decayed and require little extra effort on your part to remove. If you need the sod removed in a more timely fashion, first wait until the sod is dead. Then remove it with a shovel. You can check whether or not the sod has died by looking under your sun blocker periodically. When the sod has turned completely brown or yellow and has no green remaining, it is dead. Sod that is dead will not grip the soil as strongly as sod that is still living. Killing the sod first with light deprivation will make it easier to remove with a shovel or garden tools.
Summary: Cover undesirable sod. Weigh down your sun blocker. Remove your sod, if necessary.

Problem: Article: Pick out a flowy blouse to wear that will offset the straight leg of the jeans. To show off your waistline, tuck the blouse in, or simply tuck in the front. The blouse can be a solid color or patterned. You can also pair the blouse with a jacket or thin belt. It's best to tuck the sweater in so that your look isn't too bulky. Mom jeans are baggier than most other jeans, and combined with an untucked sweater, your form won't be very distinct. Put on your favorite over-sized sweater and try tucking in the front part. You want the waistline of your jeans to be noticeable. If your sweater isn't super bulky, try tucking in all of it for a sophisticated look. Pair it with a belt if desired. Off-the-shoulder tops are a great choice when you want to wear a more loose-fitting shirt with your jeans. They'll balance out the shape of your mom jeans by showing off your shoulders while also giving you a bohemian look. Since most mom jeans are high-waisted, pairing them with a crop top is a popular choice. Crop tops allow you to show off your waistline, and they come in all forms from loose-fitting t-shirts to tight spandex tops. Try out some different styles and see which one you like the best. If you don't own a crop top but have an old shirt that you think would look good as one, you can make your own. The classic white t-shirt and jeans look has always been in style. Choose any white shirt it could be a t-shirt, button down, or v-neck and wear it with your mom jeans. This outfit will allow you to accessorize with any color of jewelry and shoes. The white shirt goes great with almost any jacket as well. If you're wearing a white t-shirt, pair it with a bomber jacket or kimono. A button down white shirt goes great with a blazer. Since mom jeans are pretty loose-fitting in the leg area, you can balance this out by sporting a tighter top. Put on a bodysuit under your jeans to show off your curves while still being comfortable.
