All of us here at the Sisterhood want to give a huge shout of congratulations to Brian, our beloved Brother in shrinkage, for the newest addition to his beautiful family. His lovely wife, one of my dear friends, Beth gave birth to a bouncing baby boy yesterday, March 29th. Head on over to Beth’s to [...]
One of the things we all struggle with while trying to lose weight is eating in moderation. Above that? Eating in moderation during the holidays. Holiday get togethers are traditionally centered around food, which pretty much sucks because it’s nearly impossible to turn down my sister’s cheesecake or my Mom’s potato salad, so I’m not [...]
Monday, April 6th, marks the first of the 30 day Shred Challenge. What does this mean for you? Lots of sweat, sore legs, burning arms, sore abs and maybe even some tears. And no, I’m not trying to scare you, I’m just telling you what to expect. But I want to tell you what else [...]
Do not adjust your computer monitors. It is Beth, finally posting on the Shrinking Jeans site and while I’m doing that, I’m eating an apple. Which can only mean one really cool and very important thing: I am finally inspired to lose weight. We all know that you can’t take a weight loss plunge without [...]
We love you so much and hope you are having a fabulous time in Tennessee!!
I know I haven’t been around much, but I promise I have my reasons. The good news? I’m still watching my weight and still making sure my LOSER HUSBAND is still getting good a nutritional meal at night. (most times.) One thing that we needed in our house was a nice digital food scale. I [...]
.!. I’m visiting Beth and her husband Brian. We’re having fun, let me tell you. So much. And you’ll be proud to know that Brian is totally keeping me in check on my eating. At least he’s trying! Like this evening when I opened up the birthday cake box and he said, “you know, I [...]
.!. We have a sneaking suspicion that there are many of you that WANT to join the challenge, that NEED to join the challenge but there is something stopping you. Which is okay, not everyone is going to be jumping up and down excited about losing weight. It could be what you want most in [...]
Well, well, well. If it isn’t DAY ONE of the challenge and I’ve got a bad case of the pre-menstrual munchies. Figures, doesn’t it? But that’s okay. I like a good challenge. I can handle it. (Which is a total lie.) I just want to eat ALL DAMN DAY. I was great during the day [...]
It’s okay, I can accept it. Except I can’t. The truth is, when I can’t find something to wear before heading out with family or friends, I want to crawl into my bed and eat cookies and ice cream. Why is it that when we are down about our weight, that we eat MORE? What [...]
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 [...]
