Shrink Into Summer
What’s up ladies (and one lonely man)?!!!!
Warm weather is popping up here, and there and everywhere. Before you know it, bathing suit season will be upon us! Don’t you just love wearing a bathing suit in a public place? I need a suit that brings the “girls” to attention, minimizes my tummy area, and somehow, somehow eliminates the cottage cheese (I mean cellulite) hanging on my legs. Can anyone point me in the right direction?
In the meantime, our new weight loss challenge for the Sisterhood begins today. Shrink Into Summer. The challenge will run from March 25 (today) – May 20. EIGHT WHOLE WEEKS! If you’re new to the Sisterhood, you can check out information on how our challenges work here.
Make sure you weigh-in with the Sisterhood every Wednesday, because you’ll be eligible to win some very cool prizes! That’s right, every week of this challenge we’ll be randomly selecting one of you to win some fabulous prizes! See over there on the sidebar? That’s a list of all of our generous prize sponsors for this challenge! Winners will be selected from the Wednesday Weigh-In comments and announced on Thursdays.
In addition to the normal Wednesday Weigh-ins, we will also be giving you a weekly mini-challenge to participate in, something to focus on and strive for. Make sure to check back in on Sunday for details of the first weekly mini-challenge. Each mini-challenge will run from Sunday to Saturday, and some of them will also involve prizes! See, we’re gettin’ all gifty on ya!
Are you ready? I know I am ready to kick some serious poundage to the curb.
So go and write a post with your start weight, goals for this challenge, and whatever else you’d like to include. Come back here and leave the link in the comments section so that we can come and check you out. And make sure to grab the new button and post it on your blog! If you’re not already a member of the Sisterhood, contact us and let us know you’d like to be added to the blogroll.
Are you ready to Shrink into Summer!!!?
p.s. If you need a little inspiration in the form of a success story, check back this afternoon for the annoucement of our Biggest Shrinker for the Kiss Me, I’m Shrinking Challenge!

Getting back into the swing of things. I've been keeping track of my calorie intake vs calorie burn here: http://caloriecount.about.com/cc/account/index.php .
Dropped another 2# last week which broke my plateau of 2 months running. Gleeful post is here: http://lifenobox.blogspot.com/2009/03/goinggoin... .

I'm here…posting a little late. Blogged about it here: http://dalewis2.blogspot.com/2009/03/new-week-n... And I finally had a lightbulb moment and subscribed to the feed here (even though I follow on Twitter)…hoping this will help keep me in the loop. I would always forget to check in!!!
