It may be our usual check in day, and we will still be doing that, but we have some exciting news to go with it. A new challenge, The Great Maintenance Challenge is starting today! Go ahead and have another Irish coffee, and a couple more buckeyes, and one more piece of pecan pie for […]
Wednesdays are check in days here at the Sisterhood. You know what that means. Weigh yourself and see how you are doing. Let us know in the comments how that weigh in turned out. We are getting to that time of year when keeping your eating in check is going to get very difficult. The […]
Wow, can you believe we’re already smack-dab in the middle of August?! Sadly, that means summer is coming to an end, but on the upside, at least it means we’ve survived the dog days of summer. Temperatures for many folks have already started to cool which makes being active outdoors much more enjoyable again. Kids […]
I had today’s post all planned out in my head. Then….Mel posted a story about her cruise. Basicly, it was almost the same thing I was going to write about. I told her so in the comments. Don’t get me wrong, it was a great post. It just kind of took the wind out of […]
I am guessing that many of you have lots of things to toot your horns about this week. With the end of the June Tune Up challenge behind us, who has weight losses to toot about? I bet there are race results to be proud of too. I had a small loss of 4.1 pounds, […]
Good morning, ladies and gentlemen! How did your week with the weight loss challenge go? Are you keeping in contact with your partner? Are you keeping yourself accountable for your actions? WEIGH IN It’s that time of the week when we check out how we did. Go jump on the scale and write that number […]
Where in the heck did this challenge go? It is week 5 which means that there is only one week left. One week left to finish strong. Are you going to do it? How did you do with the Kick Ass April workouts? I am here to tell you that those workouts really did kick […]
Do you remember being a kid in school and your gym teacher telling you about the President’s Council on Physical Fitness award? I remember thinking that would be cool, but I was never motivated enough to actually go for it. I am facing the prospect of vacationing for more than half of the month of […]
Good morning, ladies and gents! We are a few weeks into our newest fitness and weight loss challenge here at the Sisterhood, and hopefully you are still going strong! Remember that ACTION plan you came up with the very first day of the challenge? Have you been following it? Analyze your goals – decide what […]
Is it just me or did the first week of this challenge fly by? Maybe it’s because I was super busy or because I’m just getting older. It just seems like the older I get, the faster time goes. Whatever the reason, I can’t believe it is time for our first weigh in. We have […]

Good morning, friends! How are you? The weather here in North Dakota has been amazing {like 70s!!}, and I can’t even tell you what it has done for my mood and motivation! I.love.it. How was your week? Did you toot your horn yesterday? I hope so, because everyone deserves an “atta-girl” once in awhile! We’re […]
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 […]
Hiddey Ho- it’s the eighth week of our challenge, with only one week to go. Where did the time fly off too? Yes, you have one week to kick it into high gear and to finish strong. How are you doing? Have you been doing your ‘thang and watching the numbers shrink on the scale? […]
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 […]
