Smaller/Skinny Jeans Challenge
 

I saw this on another website, they have a monthly challenge where the ladies choose a pant size smaller than they are wearing, something they think they can get into at the end of the month. Each week they post a photo of themselves in their monthly goal jeans as well as they could get them on or buttoned or unbottoned. I love the idea and was curious if anyone here is interested? We could start one in July.

that sounds wicked fun :o
I have 5 boxes on the top shelf of my closet.. the first box i need to lose 5 lbs to fit into again lol.. the second box 15 pounds.. third and fourth box 20 pounds and 5th box 30 pounds :/ Since I gained 20 lbs a year over the past 3 yrs, I still like all the stuff and I dont wanna throw it out lol :D
I was a 14 a few months ago, and now I cant squeeze into them anymore and Im a 16 :mad:... and THOSE are starting to be tight :eek: would love to fit back into the stuff!

I really love this idea...especially because I am especially trying to trim down my lower body.

I have the perfect pair of jeans as well...

It could take more than a month but here it goes...

Heres me in my 16s... and then my 14s.. I can button them but... OMG MUFFIN TOP lololol :barf: :ink:

I am a muffin top too! I was laughing when I read your post about the jeans. I managed to loose enough to fit into a 12 now but some of them make me a muffin top!! I had lost 22 then gained some back. I am determined to take away my muffin top!! Good luck to you as well!! What diet are you doing? I am doing South Beach and it has worked very well so far.

Count me in. I just bought a size 8 yesterday, and they won't button at alll. Hopefully soon though! I figured since they were stretch I could just wear them around the house for awhile and they would stretch out... boy was I wrong.
I'll take a pic when I get home tonight.

Oh Oh, me me too. =)

Right now I'm a 16, I'd love to get into a pair of 14 jeans, but I can't get into a pair that size to take a 'decent' picture. What to do? Maybe I could take a photo of myself in the jeans I can get into and another in the same pair at the next check in?

luvscoffee - lol hey you are about the same height as me and im about the same as your start weight XD
I keep losing a little then gaining a lot :( I lost 15 lbs in February and I was 175, then I gained 20 back since then :eek: Im just counting calories and trying to shift around in some kind of exercise :lol: whenever I try low carb diets my body goes all crazy on me :(
good luck to all of you :carrot:
someone else post a pic on here, mine is so embarrassing lol

I didn't realize people were interested. I will be posting something in the next couple days! Yeah this will be fun!! :carrot:

OK here goes nothing.....

It was very depressing to look at this pictures, I can't believe the way that I look in jeans. I need to do A LOT! Not only to fit in smaller jeans but to feel better about myself. This brought me to tears.

The first 2 are size 12's and the second 2 are size 14's. Next time I have to remember to turn off the flash. Do you think a weekly update, new pics of same jeans every week. I think it's a great way to see our progress. Now I am going to go exercise! I hate myself. :mad:

I'm making a movie to document my progress...I now can button my jeans but I can't really breathe in them yet...lol.

You look great! You have a very nice shape!

Is it too late for me to join in? I have dropped from an 18 to a tight 16 this month :D

I have a dilema...The 18's are too baggy and make me look like I am sagging, but my 16's just give me a little too much muffin for my liking. I guess I will wait a couple of more pounds before I wear them in public!

Here are the 18's, then the 16's.

Sock- Thanks for the compliment! I really appreciate it!! ;) I understand the sagging pants thing, I have 16's that kinda sag around the waist but today I wore 14's and they hurt my stomach a little, but it helped motivate me today!

I am ssssooo excited to have another person join! I think this will be so much fun, I am going to post a weekly update on my jeans that are in the other pics. Hopefully there will be some progress!!

I hope to see others join!

Thanks for the warm welcome!

PS. Sorry for the stomach all over the place! Hope no one is offended by my Buddha belly hehe.
