The Sisterhood of the Shrinking Jeans

Welcome to today’s Sisterhood Bash Happy Hour! What’s the Sisterhood Bash? Go check it out – we’re raising money for the Leukemia and Lymphoma Society and there are MANY chances to win fabulous prizes…and cash. Yes, cash.
So, it’s hump day – Wednesday – I am so glad we’re halfway through the week.
AND IT’S ST. PATRICK’S [...]

So, um, yeah, Happy Hour is a little late tonight.  Well, I know it must be happy hour somewhere in the world.
It’s Tuesday, the second day of our incredible Team Shrinking Jeans Bash to benefit the Leukemia and Lymphoma Society. Have you checked out all the fabulous door prizes we’re giving away? No? GO RIGHT [...]

Okay, for the life of me, I can’t remember the last time I confessed.
Naughty!
Let’s see… this week:

I baked. A lot. In the name of taking goodies to my sister-in-law, who just had a baby last week, and because my son keeps begging me for ‘birthday cake’. Birthday cake, to him, is anything in a muffin/cupcake [...]

Welcome to the Monday Project Link-Up!! This week was all about catching up on projects past because even I, who writes the post every week, missed posting a project. And before we get ahead of ourselves with some really cool new projects, we wanted to give all our newbies and procrastinators  a shot at being able to [...]

Calling all Teams of Shrinkers!!!! It’s time!! Weigh-in Day is upon us! How did you all do this week? Did you keep up the momentum?

We’ve been playing along with the Monday Project since the first week of January here at the Sisterhood and that means we are in WEEK 10 of Monday Projects! Wow!! We’ve had a lot of awesomeness come out of them, too, with some pretty memorable projects and a lot of soul-searching along the way. There was [...]

*UPDATED! Check the comments for winners!*
A few weeks ago, Weight Watchers got in touch with the Sisterhood, wanting us to give their new and improved snack cakes a try.
Um, okay. Twist my arm. Snack cakes? Yeah, I’m got a bit of a sweet tooth. Guilty.
Weight Watchers has recently reworked their creme filled snack cakes – [...]

This week’s Monday Project was to take a look at what things would be like if you postponed this little thing called a weightloss journey. If instead of being on it right now, what if you had waited? Stayed complacent? And instead, started in, say, two years from now, what would that be like for you? 
I [...]

Good morning!
Have you had your breakfast this morning??
If you’ve heard it once, you’ve heard it a million times. EAT YOUR BREAKFAST!  No, it’s not me yelling at you, it’s them. You know the ones. The ones we refer to when saying “They say you should eat your breakfast!”  Whoever “they” are. The really smart people who do all those studies who [...]

I see a lot of new faces around here (HURRAH!!!) so to recap what The Monday Project is, each week we have a “project” or a “question” that helps you renew your motivation and/or reflect upon yourself. You have the whole week to do it and we link up our “answers” or “projects” on Fridays. [...]

***************WINNERS HAVE (FINALLY) BEEN CHOSEN! So sorry for the delay!!***************

BOCA Meatless Products recently contacted the Sisterhood about hosting a House Party. Lisa and I held the party at her house last weekend, and it was so much fun! BOCA sent us a party box complete with coupons for free products, recipe booklets, an apron, oven mitt, [...]

No sooner did I fire off this post about The Bank did I have plenty to put in there myself. Oh do I have a story or two to tell and I hope you do too!
What? I’m sorry? You have no idea what The Monday Project is? Well, then come on in and have a [...]

When my husband was out of town last weekend, I missed a ride with my triathlon group because I didn’t have anyone to watch the kids. (I used the bike trainer in my living room instead.)
And that was just fine with me, it was freakin cold outside and after everyone got done with the ride, [...]

We’re continuing the ooey gooey chocolatey goodness this weekend with a sweet, delicious recipe perfect for Valentine’s Day! I found this recipe on Weight Watchers, and guess what my family is getting for their Valentine’s treat?
Yup.
Mini Chocolate Cheesecakes with Chocolate Crusts. A mere 3 points in Weight Watchers. Or 150 calories/5 grams of fat, your [...]
