Does this look familiar to you? It looks very familiar to me. It has kind of become my new best friend. I’ve got some horn tooting to do, girlfriends. So, listen up because I’m proud of myself this week. Last month, I did the Fab Ab February ab workout. Bari had posted it and I [...]

It’s Wednesday weigh-in/check-in day. It’s our first weigh-in without a challenge going on in awhile. It still counts though. You can’t slack off just because it’s not challenge time. Head to the scale and check out what it says. Then come back here and leave us the results in the comments. If you are blogging [...]

Have you ever heard the quote, “This time next year, you’ll wish you started today.”? I ran across it earlier this winter and it kind of spoke to me. It got me thinking about all the times that I put off starting something till tomorrow. I am the worst during summer vacation from school. I [...]

Today, I bring you a special post….very special to me. See, my brother Greg has embarked on his own weight loss journey and asked if he could write something up for Shrinking Jeans (that’s us up above). He wanted to write his story and be accountable to others, in addition to himself. I may have [...]

Good morning shrinkers! If my calendar is right, today is Wednesday and that means it’s a weigh in day. It might be a check in day, if you are one of those lucky people who are already at your goal weight. It is hard to believe that there are only two weeks left in this [...]

Good morning everyone! Isn’t today just beautiful? Today is Wednesday (in case you didn’t already know that) and you know that that means! It’s time to check-in (or weigh-in if you’re a shrinker)!

Happy Groundhog Day! Today’s the day we learn our (possible) collective fate, the prediction from a tiny little furry creature in a hole: will we get 6 more weeks of the treadmill or bike trainer? (Yes). You may be wondering what on earth fitness and Groundhog Day might have in common but I assure you [...]

I’m a huge fan of seafood, especially shrimp. It’s one of my favorite types of seafood to cook at home because it’s quick, easy, and is a great fit with my Weight Watchers food plan. I recently came across this recipe for Dijon Shrimp. Unfortunately, I don’t remember exactly where I found it, but it’s [...]
