SKINNY JEANS 3---Sign ups...get in here!

[RealRach]

Ok Ladies, NeeNee has passed the torch on to me. I am going to head up Season 3 of the SKINNY JEANS Contest!

This will run 12 weeks. Starting THIS SUNDAY!! January 10th, 2010 and run until April 4th, 2010. I am going to start gathering up prizes, so if any designers want to contribute to the prize fault...please PM me or post here and I will contact you!

You MUST take a series of 4 photos EACH SUNDAY. Front, back, left, right profile. I hear the groans already. I was there 10 weeks ago myself. But I promise you, you will thank me in 12 weeks!! Right, Neenee! LOL You will weigh yourself and post this in our private forum. Yes, we will all see what you weigh but if I can do it, anyone can!

Post here and I will give you the link to the private forum and NeeNee will approve you. We will base the final winner off the % lost. As some will lose more than others based on starting weight.
Any questions just post here and I will do my best to answer them. I will learn as I go with this "boss" stuff! LOL

JOIN US!!! You will be so glad you did!

[littlekiwi]

sure I'll sign up again - I'm already on the forum though

[schock77]

I'm on the forum already unless it's changed - just had to drop out after week 1 due to travel... and the holidays did NOT help my in the weightloss department!

And way to go RACH!!!!

[Jenn Barrette]

I will play again, and would be happy to donate a GC to my store for the prizes

[RealRach]

THANKS Jenn!!! And yes, I believe NeeNee is deleting all old sign-ups...so you will just have to register, ladies! I gave her Jennifer (littlekiwi) name already so she might not delete that one. I will let her know about the rest so far!

[littlekiwi]

either way I don't mind having to sign up again if need be

[tuneskids]

I will try it ... I attempted the first round, didn't last long though. lol

[Nikki Epperson]

I'm thinking about it -- but I'll definitely help in the prize department! =]

[Sharon Kay]

I was on there in the forum ... and dropped out ... but would like to try it again!!! I would really like to lose some weight! I do need to buy a new scale this week because mine broke during the last challenge (no I don't weigh THAT much...think someone messed with it and didn't fess up to breaking it...was missing a foot and got squashed)...

[sczos911]

I'm in! LMK what you need.

[eranslow]

Gonna try it again! Congrats Rach!!

[SmallMoments]

Oy. Okay. I'm in. This is taking major guts from me! lol

[jenn7]

I'll try.

[meems]

what all is involved? are there challenges and such?

[RealRach]

There are weekly weigh ins with PHOTOS. We have done some challenges in the past but then it just sort of tappered off. I am hoping to keep some form of motivation going for us! I work better with pressure! heehee

I have all names to this point. I will PM you with site link later, ladies!
Thank you all for playing along. I hope you will be very happy in 12 weeks with your results!

[loralyn]

me, too, please!

[BrattyMeg]

I want to do this one time..lol I don't own a scale though (issues.....lol)

[MamaBee]

I gained 7 pounds since the last check in, no kidding! I need this kick in the butt... so I'm in.

And Rach... if you need help, I'd be more than happy to help out!

[lovely1m]

I would like to, but I have no way of taking pictures of myself.

Never mind, I just remembered that I am deploying for a couple of weeks in February and will not keep up with it then.

[Emmy]

Just to clarify - are we sharing our weight with everyone on the forum or just the people in charge lol....

[RealRach]

It is shared with everyone in the forum. Yes I know it sounds horrible but you know what...I survived it and you will too! **Wink wink
I was one of the top 3 heaviest last time so I feel your pain. After the first post, it will get easier.

I have you all up to this point. I have been doing templates so I will now go work on adding you to the forum then I will send out PM's! Ok!

[kscwgirl]

okay.. I'll do it again. I sucked last time so let's see if I can keep it up this time.

[HeatherKS]

Count me in! I just started back up on my own today after just about throwing up when I got on the scale for the first time since before Christmas. Yikes. I didn't last long in round 1 but am determined to do better this time around!

[DogwoodMama]

Well, I admit I *gulp* at the sharing your weight thing, but I am already doing a challenge on a different board (for moms local to me) and I'd be trying to lose weight anyway so the thought of digi prizes lures me in. I actually do want to take pictures, though I had planned to do it every time I lost 10 lbs, but I guess once a week would work too...

[breakingbrie]

I think I'd like to do this. I think posting pics and my weight for other people to see might help keep me motivated. I've been hanging on to 20-30 pounds since I had the girls over 4 years ago, and I'd love to finally get rid of some of it!!! (lol, sad thing is I only gained a total of 40 with my pregnancy...I don't think I'll be able to get rid of all of it, but some would be nice.) Count me in.

Im in the same boat. I dont need to loose heaps, but i have some baby weight still hanging around, which id really like to loose before we start trying for baby #2 mid year! So count me in! I think taking photos each week will really motivate me...now off to finish the pack of chocolate biscuits in my fridge before sunday. hehe

[Ainwena]

Sign me up too please! I won't drop out this time!

[crecia27]

I am in! And I agree, I think the pictures in the end will hopefully tell much more than the scale!

[RealRach]

PM's sent to here! NIGHT!!! I'll be back in the AM!

[Jennifer]

in

[mnm_y2]

I'm in as well again. I lost 8lbs (but then gained 2 that final week... darn yummy xmas food!)

And, as I mentioned on the thread, I'll totally help with the daily threads and if you need anything else.. just let me know

Thanks so much for stepping in and taking this challenge on! I'm so excited to jump right in withthe same motivation we had Week 1!

[**Holly**]

I am in!!! I started on WW again and this will keep me motivated!

[knlchevys]

Oh, I'm in. I need something. I pray I can last and show a difference (hides)

[dlaratonae]

Please add me in again

[LilachO]

Count me in please!!!
I has stopped my diet last time in the middle of the skinny 2 but I'm back on track and I'm SO in!!

[mormishmom]

Do we take pictures of ourselves in the jeans or just regular pictures? Cuz I can't even get my jeans up over my butt and I don't want to show y'all that. It ain't pretty. LOL

[rsk]

I registered last time, but dropped out after 2 weeks): I would love to try again.

[SeattleSheri]

I'd like to participate again too.

[Claudi]

oh, I would love to join!!! I hope it helps me to loose some weight! Not enough in 10 weeks but it will be a start and it will help me getting on the start!

[SmallMoments]

Got it and I'm signed up and ready to go! Thanks, Rachel!

[LilachO]

Got it and registered in the new forum

[DawnMarch]

I bailed out last time, but I'm going to give it another try. My DH and I are doing a Biggest Loser kind of challenge at home too, so maybe having them both going will finally get me motivated!

[FireWolf]

I totally bailed before round 2 even got started...really bad timing on my part, but I'd really like to try it again...I'd really like to lose some of this flab before my wedding in June.

[pkstew2]

I'd like to try again. Thanks for heading this up!

[junebug]

i want to. i don't have really weight to lose, just belly flab to tone and i miss my old butt, lol. i have scale, i think it needs batteries or its broke. i just have a hard time motivating myself! i was thinking of getting that Bender ball? or some fun workout dvd.

go ahead and sign me up and i'll give it a try. maybe you guys can motivate me to stop being lazy, lol.

[Aggie Aviso]

Can I join still?
