      Another thing...since it now looks like we will be starting on the official beginning of Spring (March 20) and ending on the official start of Summer (June 21), maybe we should have a title with a play on the words like: Spring Into Summer!

      Has anyone read the White Pants thread in the main forum??? I am definitely going for the white pants for this challenge!

        Hi, Everyone

        Congrats to all of you who participated in the Love Handles Challenge! Sorry I am so late to report back. I realize that it's over, and I never did get any follow-up photos posted. I was having trouble downloading photos to my laptop. Since I promised pics, and I was finally able to download a few last night, I will go ahead and post one.

        OK - I was already at goal at the start of this challenge. So, my challenge was to make sure that I could still fit into my goal jeans. I'm not wearing those jeans in my new pic, but I figured I'd go ahead and post it anyway.

        The first pics, in jeans, are the before shots, taken at 125 pounds. The after shot was taken last night, at 120 pounds. I NEVER dress up, so I figured I'd sieze the opportunity to get a pic taken.











        Follow-up Photo added 2/29/08



        Good luck to all of you in the next "shrinking" challenge!

                          Are white pants a requirement? I don't buy white ANYTHING....within minutes of putting it on, there's a coffee stain *sigh* White is like a dirt magnet for me.

                                I was just worried that I had heard nothing else for so long, and the official spring is just a few days off. We don't plan to start another, as long as this one takes off.

                                Chickie--you don't have to wear white, there's just a few of us that want to get into some awesome white jeans. I'm with you on the white being a dirt/stain magnet. I have a beautiful white blouse, dry clean only, that within an hour of having it on, I spill something on it--usually coffee. I have vowed not to eat or drink anything if I ever wear it again. Last time, the day after getting it back from the dry cleaners, I wore it to church, where I proceeded to get a cup of coffee in Sunday School. First sip was very hot and the shock made me allow the coffee to run out my lips and make a big stain on the front. I have decided that when I eat anything red, like pasta sauce, to go ahead and plop a big spoonful on the light-colored blouse I am wearing, because that's where it's gonna end up anyway. That or wear a bib!
