The Sisterhood of the Shrinking Jeans

Last week, we played catch-up, and if you haven’t seen that, then feel free to take a look at projects of Mondays past and catch up! In fact, if you do catch up, just link up in Friday’s post with all the other link-ups, but tell us in the comments which project you’ve done so [...]

I faced my fear this weekend. I swam in the open ocean, in 60 degree water, in my wetsuit. A double whammy. (The cold and the ocean.)
No big deal, right? Oh, it was to me. Because my very last swim was a disaster. It was back in October where I bobbed up and down – going absolutely [...]

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?
Are you loving this group thing or what??!!
Well wait no longer, go on, hop on those scales, weigh-in, post about it, link up here in the comments below. Now make sure that you [...]

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 [...]

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. [...]

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, [...]

I have been thinking about this project all week! So, who is she? Who is your kickass superhero alter-ego? What does she do? How do you channel her? When does she come out? When do you wish she came out?
More importantly: does she wear a cape?
Mine does. Mine totally does.
And just to clarify, this superhero [...]

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 [...]

The Rethink Your Shrink Challenge has come to a barely slightly early end and this is the final Monday Project for the challenge. I know! Where did the time go?!
Today what we really want to know is, how did you do? And we mean really. How did you do? Got some pictures??
Did you discover your patterns? [...]

Oh dear shrinkers, rethinkers, and rethinking your shrinkers! I cannot fathom the fact that this is the last weigh-in of the Rethink Your Shrink Challenge! Don’t pay attention to the sister behind the computer who’s getting all teary-eyed!
(Um, edited to note: Boy, we can’t get anything past you guys, huh!? No, you’re not crazy. Apparently we [...]

 
I’m getting a little misty-eyed over here! Rethink Your Shrink is coming to an end! Are you ready? Did you rethink? And moreover, did you shrink?
What happened over the past 7 weeks? Did you move more? Did you find victories? Did you find non-scale victories? Did you do something you’ve never done before? (And [...]
