When we put out a call for new writers last week, we had no idea there would be such an amazing response. Seriously. We were blown away by each email, each story, each testament, each woman. Those women were brave to put themselves out there so honestly, because this journey is hard. And each story [...]
This week, Jamee from A New Kind of Normal has chosen one of my favorite and one of our most supportive Sisters!! Congratulations, Tirah. I can honestly say that I was completely blown away when I opened my reader and saw last week’s Sister Spotlight! I’m sure it gets said every week but my jaw [...]

Here are the results of this week’s weigh-in. Keep in mind that the Weight Lost Leaderboard is the cumulative %, meaning over the whole challenge; [...]
I was so humbled to be chosen by TrishB for the Sisterhood Spotlight. Trish is one amazing lady and it has been so, so, so much fun getting to know her and being the recipient of her unending encouragement. She has been an amazing teammate on our Shrinkvivor journey and I couldn’t be happier to [...]
Last week’s spotlighted sister, Bari, made an amazing choice for this week’s Spotlight, IMHO. Read on, my friends… ******* Oh my goodness, where to begin???? I was flabbergasted when Karena chose me as last week’s Sister Spotlight. I mean, seriously! I’m just little o’ me, doing my thing. It still blows my mind that people [...]
When you’re dealing with an injury, or multiple injuries, it really messes with your mind. You’re supposed to be resting up so your body can heal. Resting equals idle body. Idle body equals mind that has way too much time to think about the idle body and how much it’s driving you insane to be [...]
How many of you exercise? Workout? Get the heart pumping? Go ahead, raise your hand. Do you ever get bored with exercising? I know I do. Even though I love to run, there are some days a lot of days where I just don’t want to do it, or the idea of running gets pushed [...]
When I started this running gig back in October, I heard some rumblings here and there about a site called www.dailymile.com. I checked it out briefly but didn’t give it much thought because um, hello, I already have enough sites that I write on/check status/update or twitter/facebook/blog. I had no intention of adding ANOTHER ONE [...]
***************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 [...]
We are getting ready to embark on another odyssey of the 30 Day Shred here at the Sisterhood. I do love me some Shred, but I will be sitting this one out, since it’s not really compatible with my herniated disc problems! I thought it would be fun to write about some of my other [...]
I took a trip down memory lane this week, Sisterhood-style. I went and read posts from the very beginning of Shrinking Jeans. Almost a whole year has gone by. Sisters (and brothers) have come and gone, some of you have just come upon us, but there are a select few who were there for us [...]
