I don't know! ha ha!
I'm probably not the best person to get tips from because I can't exercise so I'm just watching what I eat.
I didn't think I would lose this much as I was over my cals on Wednesday by over 800!! but by the time I made up for it on the other days I still ended up being roughly the right amount on the average weekly cals.I still thought I'd ruined this week because of Wednesday.
I'm a bit worried that I'm losing muscle not fat by not doing any exercise. I'm doing exercises with my arms but nothing that I can count how many cals I'm burning as it's just a few weights and nothing for my bottom half because of my hip joint. Because of my history of eating (it's not so good) I don't really have the best amount of muscle as it is and I'm pretty weak so I don't want anymore to be gone!
Does anyone know if this will be enough to let my body know that I don't want it to eat my muscle?
Will it only be helping my arms and not my thighs/stomach?
I really hope doing arm exercises is enough!0 -
UGH! I am up... :grumble:
174.5
I need to get back on track!0 -
Hi team! Sorry I'm late, but at least I have good news! I weighed in yesterday at 284.6, for a 1.8 pound loss.0

Way to go on all the losses, Gryffindors! For those of you who gained, detention with Dolores Umbridge!
....Just kidding! 0 -
Food challenge:
Try to get at least 4 different colors in your meals this week. Different colored foods have different nutrients so the more colorful your plate the more different nutrients you are getting!
Well, my lunch was almost rainbow coloured:
Red= Cherry tomatoes
Yellow= Sweetcorn
Pink= Prawns
Green= Cucumber
Orange= Satsuma
Purple= Red grapes (that were actually purple)
Blue= Well, I think I need to invest in some blueberries!!!!!!

ok guys, looks like our loss for this week is 66.42% Not as good as last week..I think some of us had great weeks while others were a little disappointing...but we can fix this! C'mon Gryffindors! Lets all be really good this week and show Hogwarts who the strongest house is! 0

I am super pumped for this week!! My grocery trip is tonight and I have been putting it off for ages. That means one GINORMOUS salad for dinner and I am way excited about it! Wheeeee!
Also, I ordered a bunch of Jillian Michaels DVD's from Amazon and they came yesterday. I am starting 30 day Shred tonight since the gym is becoming very time consuming! I am going to hit up the gym once or twice a week for just straight up cardio but work on toning at home.
I meant to start the shred yesterday but I sliced my finger open on a knife doing dishes (ouchy) which turned 4 hours of my day into a debacle. I don't think my blood needed to be pumping any more than it was at that moment!!
Here's to a GREAT WEEK everyone! I KNOW you all can do it - on track and ready to win! I am HIGHLY determined to break through my plateau this week and see some big losses!0 -

PREFECT TIME!!
UnoDiamante was technically our first Prefect with the highest percentage of 2.595% lost this week! However, I thought to be fair we'd not give you the official Prefect title since you're also our Gryffindor Head of House AND our Hogwarts Headmistress! But I think you deserve mentioning for your incredible work this week!
So, that leaves us with some equally impressive Prefects this week!
Phoenixrising11 - 2.320%
Kelsue35 - 2.206%
Use your newfound authority to share tips on completing the challenges, ask Harry Potter trivia, or just brag to the other Houses. You guys are awesome!
As for everyone else, I know we can kill it! Don't let little setbacks get you down, fellow Gryffindors, we're all in this together!
I'm so proud of my House, no matter our place so far 0 -
I'm taking another week off from exercise, but I'll try the food challenge. I love colors lol. Maybe I can get some strawberries soon...0

I'm discovering that I tend to always have 4 colors in my meals, which is awesome
Also, that I'm not that strong, but getting stronger every day with these strength workouts!0 -
I'm getting my colours in! And I'm doing EA Sports Active on the Wii which gives me quite a bit of strength training!
LouiseXXX0 -
I'm doing pretty good. Yesterday I thought of you guys when I was eating my salad and I noticed I had red, orange, yellow, green and purple in it! Haha. 0
-
awesome work everyone! The stronger you get, the more calories are burned without any effort so its a win-win! 0
-
Aiming to burn some serious calories today, so I can enjoy a bottle of wine (probably not the best thing for a the weigh-in tomorrow!!!!).
I soooooooooo want to see the 170s this time.
LouiseXXX0 -
I had 5 colours in my meal last night but I can't say they were too healthy. It was veg but I don't know what it had been cooked in.
A few of Harry Potter Facts for you:
- If a muggle spotted Hogwarts, they would just see an old ruin with a sign "Keep out, dangerous building".
- The Gryffindor team won the Quidditch Cup during the 1993 - 1994 season - the first time since 1984 - and again during the 1995 - 1996 season. They wear robes of scarlet.
- The name Voldemort comes from the French words meaning “fly from death,” and his entire goal is to conquer death.0 -
Dont forget to weigh in tomorrow everyone!!! 0
-
Weigh-in this morning = no loss.:sad:
I am going to increase my exercise next week (I have been a lot slacker than in previous weeks) and I WILL SEE 170s next week!!!!!!!
Good luck to everyone, fingers crossed you are doing better than me:blushing:

I was sick this week so the weight came right off; hoping it stays off and doesn't show back up next week. Hope everyone is doing well!0 -
It is catching? *hopeful* :bigsmile:I was sick this week so the weight came right off.
Hope you're feeling better, well done for such a great sustained loss. 0 -

Uhh, no loss for me. But I'm not really surprised I had a formal for my business class on friday with an open bar, So I definitely hurt myself on that one0
