Skinny Jeans 5?

[Jennilyn]

When is it going to start? I'm in need of a push to continue my weight loss journey now that the holidays are over!

[Jennifer]

idk who is in charge??? i'd be interested, though!

[suze]

ooohhh I was hoping you guys were doing another one!!

I'm in

[Leah]

Me too!!

Maybe we can convince Jeanye (NeeNee) to do another one??

[MamaBee]

RealRach did the last two... I know things where crazy busy with her for a bit...

[crecia27]

I'd be interested in another round. I'm sad to say I've totally stalled.

[Nevada Jen]

I want in! (And I want to have 10 posts so I can comment on people's layouts!). My goal was to lose 40 pounds by 40. I have 9 months and 42 pounds to go

[suze]

well I would be willing to do it! but I've only done the first one way way back. I would be willing to help more I guess.

maybe RealRach will be up for it again.

[Amy Bleser]

I'm in and would be willing to help.

[nanienamou]

I would be in, too.

[SweetMelissa]

I've never done it before but I'm really interested and if there is another round then I'm in!

[g6scrapped]

I have never done it before but I would definitely be interested too!

[suze]

so in the past this is something completely independent right?? separate from SweetShoppe?

We set up forms and guidelines, and get designer sponsors right?

Its been awhile since I've done it... 4 later lol

I sent RealRach a message I directed her here so we can talk

[RealRach]

Hey! I'm here. Thanks Susan. I don't know that I have time to commit to this right now. My life is insane right now (STILL). I have no issues with ANYONE taking this on. I took over after NeeNee did it in round 2. I just set up my own Forum and went from there. I asked designers to contribute prizes, kept a spreadsheet, made up templates, and just tried to keep people motivated. I made up my own rules. They HAD to post weekly photos to be eligible for the grand prize. It's truly amazing to see the before and after pics. I hated doing them at first but I am SOOO Happy I have them now! I'm down 80 pounds since I started my journey! And it really makes me happy to look back and see those pics!

I'm willing to help in anyway I can but I just can't RUN IT. I've got too many spoons in the pot at the moment! Right, Libby! LOL hahaha

[RealRach]

I just looked: I used www.freeforums.org
I also believe I still have the template should you want them. But by all means, feel free to make it yours or whom ever takes over!

[Jennilyn]

I can create a forum on my own domain so it would be private if you guys want!

[rach3975]

I'll play!

[SmallMoments]

I'm so in again!

[suze]

I don't mind taking over at all! Thanks Rach for stopping in. Jennilyn that sounds good I don't mind that. Rach I would love any tips or passed down items. I'll have no problem doing the spread sheets and keep up with motivation and weekly photos and requirements.

[suze]

whoever wants to help shoot me a pm!! Especially if you've done the previous ones! also anyone who wants to give prizes let me know too. I'll be getting started on this very soon.

[AmberK]

Can you guys explain how this works? This sounds like something I want to do.

[Jennilyn]

Can someone who was in it before list the types (or names) of subforums you used?

[lovely1m]

I was literally just thinking of this the other day! I am so in! I need some sort of thing to keep me accountable. I only had 10 pounds to lose when I got lazy, not I have 20 pounds to lose. I need to do this.

[suze]

So ladies I'm getting started on everything now!! I'm getting some help pm messages and I'm working on getting the rest setup!

Jennilyn im unsure about the forum categories and setup from before, but we can always make changes as we go right??

I was thinking stuff like:

the week breakdowns
chat section
motivation needed section

[Amy Bleser]

Susan thanks for taking this on! I am very excited - I'm glad to help so I'll pm you shortly.

[Jennilyn]

I just PM'd the forum link to anyone who has expressed interest thus far.

[g6scrapped]

Got it and am all set up there! So excited to join in on this!

[littlekiwi]

Recipies would be another great section

I'd love to join up - I'll be moving away from home in about 6 weeks then getting started with the gym and aquarobics again

[haydensmommy217]

sign me up too, have lost 5 pounds in the last week

[Jennilyn]

[isaacsmom]

Count me in! I've been doing WW and am down 20 lbs since Oct...but I need some motivation to keep the train a rollin'!!!

[littlekiwi]

[tuneskids]

I guess I can try again. I've bombed out the last two times. lol

Maybe a makeup bag or purse mirror? Or a lunch tote for packing a healthy lunch?

I'd be willing to donate a little something from my JeniLuScraps shop on Etsy (unless it has to be scrapbook related). I'd love to join ya for this challenge ~ I only need to lose 10 lbs by April 1 but at 61 it's not all that easy!

nope doesnt have to be scrap related!! makes for great weekly prizes to keep the ladies motivated

just pm me your info and what you wanna giveaway!

[suze]

[pkstew2]

I would love to try again - I was in one over a year ago (maybe the first one?) and bombed. Thanks for your hard work getting this going!

[Sharon Kay]

wish it was starting like tomorrow ... I need to lose weight before I go to Disney (will make it easier doing all that walking if I lose some weight!) ... but the end of this ... I will already be at Disney and won't be able to post ...

[breakingbrie]

I would be interested in joining this round!! I started one round, and just got too discouraged without seeing any change - not a single pound lost! and I ended up dropping out lol. But this would be the motivation I need to start the 30 day shred I've got collecting dust...

[MandaT]

I'm in... sign me up!!
Hopefully it'll be my motivation & support that I need.

[c0r1nn3]

Oh I'd love to try I signed up for one but never got a chance to get started.

I know I can do the workout but the eating part is where I fall apart. Looking for inspiration there.

Sign me up, please!

[Chantal Miller]

i think I might be interested this time

[RealRach]

I'll play along this round too! I still have about 40 more to go.

I would be interested in joining as well. I did the first 2 I believe.

[dover6473]

Sign me up too! I so need a challenge!

[melmos75]

Count me in! I tried 2 other ones but bombed - maybe three times a charm!

[HeatherKS]

Sign me up too! I tried a couple times ago and gave up somewhere in the middle because I just wasn't keeping myself on track. The hubs and I started WW last week and I am already down 5 lbs. but I've got about 20 more to go. Maybe this will give me an extra boost!

[nesser1981]

I'd like to try it again.

I didn't stick with it before. I'm back on WW's.
