Skinny Jeans Challenge
 

I've done this before on this board but its been years ago... Its basically a monthly challenge where the ladies choose a jean 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? I'm thinking of starting Sunday - Feb 12??

I'm in!! I want to get this baby weight off! I have 30 pounds to go, but really want to fit in my size 6's again!

I'll make my first goal for the size 10's I have laying around to fit!

Yay!! I want to fit into size 27's that I just bought :) can't quite button them yet lol but they were on clearance for $10 and normally $100!! So it'll be a good goal :)

Sweet! I am glad you are going to join the challenge :)

ooh this might be a good challenge for me. i have some size 20s, 18s and 16s (the 16s are a distant goal at the moment)... i'll have to try them on and see :)

Awesome! So we'll post pics on Sunday?

as long as there's no joking my overhanging gut :( i've deffo got a B belly... and most of it is in the top half of the B, so i can get the jeans on, but HELLO MUFFIN TOP lol.

Sounds great, I'm in :)

If between now and Sunday someone tells me how to upload a photo, pretty please :)

Oh, I'll be right there with you on the muffin top. It'll be a sight! LOL!

takingcontrol, I haven't uploaded a photo in a while, but I think the easiest way is to hit the "go advanced" button below the reply box, and at the top of the new reply box is a paper clip and that'll attach a picture to your reply. I'll test is sometime in the next couple of days to make sure I know what I'm talking about!

I'm excited ladies! This'll be fun!!

Cherbear Thanks! I'll take a photo tomorrow and have a go :)

Yay!! I am excited we have got a few people interested :) I'll post my pics on Sunday!! Looking forward to all of us working into our skinny jeans!!! LETS DO IT!!! :carrot::carrot::carrot::carrot::carrot:

I've found two pairs, one that do up but are just tight and I'm pretty confident I'll be wearing by the end of the month. The others I've a lonnnnngggg way to go, but the picture of me (half!) wearing them will be a motivator to keep going until they fit and beyond :)

Hoping photos are attached, please excuse my 'I love shoes' underwear :o

PIC 1 = Pair one, on but tight, hoping to be wearing comfortably by the end of the month

PIC 2 = Pair two, stuck somewhere around my bum and hips. LOOOONNNNNGGGG way to go, but with the help of this challenge, I'll get there!

Taking Control -- your tight ones will be loose soon!! I know it!! And the other ones are not that far away :)

What kind of diet and exercise program are you guys following?

I'm not really following a plan, but am trying to get fit for the first time as an adult, so keeping as active as I can with a couple of pump classes, a spin class and a hydrojog class each week then add other bits and pieces on top as I have time.

As for diet, I'm not calorie counting, but am working hard to make good choices, and to plan ahead and stick to it. I'm also trying to be realistic so treats and slip ups are OK.

I started in Jan 2011 and did really well until April 2011 when I fell off the wagon, got back on it again about a month ago, and lost over 10lb so far.

I can't wait to be in those jeans ha ha ha!

What about your plan?

This would be a great motivator for me. I am in a size 12 now and have some 10s and 8's put up. I will get out a pair and see what they look like. I know I will definitely have a muffin top! Looking forward to my smaller jeans fitting perfectly! I'll post my pic tonight or tomorrow.
