    As for the challenge I made the water goal, but I had a horrible cold all week and didn't get much exercise :-( Probably the reason for the small loss.

    A loss is a loss is a loss! Good job! :)

    I missed what the challenge was - does the house get bonus points if we meet them? If so I will go ad up my water intake or exercise minutes. Generally get in a minimum, usually significantly more, of 10 glasses and over two hours of exercise a day, not counting my strength training.

    we have lost 47.4 lbs so far in 1 week and to put that into perspective, here's a fun fact: the exit door on a Boeing 737-300 weighs 47 pounds, and think how big those planes are! amazing everyone.

    and to those feeling discouraged with no loss, remember, the number on the scale is not the most important thing. whatever that scale says, you are still making the effort to change your lifestyle. you are still making the effort to be healthy, and thats more than what many people can say for themselves.

    corsayre: the idea of challenges equaling house points was brought up, but i think it was scrapped. made things a bit more complicated, but im not entirely sure. ill check out the other threads and see if its been mentioned!

    dont let that discourage you ashade44, its only a minor setback and im sure you will go on to kick butt!

    okay, out of all 39 of us, we have 25 weigh-ins so far, which is amazing for it being the very first day.

    I told my sister about this challenge today, and her response was: "You're totally a Hufflepuff. That's the house I would have put you in."

    A bit late, but here's three facts about me:

    1. I have thrown two Harry Potter-themed parties so far (a third one will be in a couple months), and there were NO children at either party... strictly for adult Potter-heads.

    2. I work in reality television and documentaries.

    3. I'm hoping to be put in a medically-induced coma for the next two months so that when I wake up the final Harry Potter film will be out and the wait will be over!!!

    Okay..I finally got around to weighing myself today! After I ate a ton of chocolate (My husband was so good and didn't get me candy but they gave us Sees candy at church!) I couldn't resist..and justified it as mothers day. Oh well!
