The Sisterhood of the Shrinking Jeans

[ 89 ] 11/23/2008 |

We’re just a bunch of girls (and one boy), who want to lose weight.

That’s how this website was formed.  Except THIS website, isn’t just about us.  It’s about YOU, too.

It’s about us.  It’s about doing this incredibly difficult thing, weight loss, and having a place to share our triumphs and our frustrations.  We’ve created this little home on the internet for all of us to feel like we’re not so alone in this battle of weight loss.  Weight loss is SO HARD.  It is our hope that we make it easier.

This site is going to be filled with information, which we are hoping will fuel your weight loss.  Don’t just check in once a day, check in five times a day.  Don’t just come here to read about someone else’s weight loss, share yours in the comments.  This is OUR community.

Not only will we have our fair share of personal stories, recipes, reviews, etc, but we will also be hosting weight loss challenges.  Our first one begins NEXT MONDAY.  It’s called the I’m Dreaming of a Light Christmas Challenge, we’ll have weekly weigh ins, where YOU will have an opportunity to share with everyone how your journey is going.

So, tell us, right now, are you with us?  How much do you want to lose?  What would you like to see on this site?  We can’t wait to hear from you and we can’t wait to share this journey with you.

Welcome to the sisterhood.

    I think I’m going to like it here! However, I know this is a terrible start, but my holiday willpower is NOT GOOD. Thanksgiving is tomorrow — is shall be my last hoorah — and then, I-AM-IN!!! 25 pounds.

    I’m in, although I’m in good shape, I need to get lean. The joints want 20 less pounds to cart around! So I’m going for 20 to start and then another 10 after that!

    I’m SO in. I joined a gym about 6 months ago and was really good for a while and actually lost 12 pounds in the first couple months. But since then I’ve sort of fizzled and really need a little renewed motivation. I’d love to loose another couple pounds before attending 2 weddings this holiday season. My overall goal is to loose at least another 10, and hopefully another 20 pounds before getting pregnant again.

    Count me in. I’ve been talking about losing weight for as long as I can remember but haven’t really done anything. Now when your daughter starts saying things like, “Mommy, you’re tummy is fat”, It’s time to really start moving. I’m hoping that with the accountability I’ll find the motivation to get stepping. Thanks.

    I’m not sure how I found this blog … I had started out at Thursday Thirteens …

    But I am so glad I ended up here. I am doing WW at Work and it’s a good group I’m with … but do need more motivation.

    Hoping to loose more …
