    PREFECT TIME!

    Here's the chart:

    300505_588802704293_179201885_32369900_426822272_n.jpg

    Our prefects for October Week 4 are:

    MindyBlack (for weight lost) and Kelsue35 (for Owls & Newts)! Great work, as usual, girls!

    I know you have your badges, so I'll leave it at that :)

    Since it's the end of the month, we also get to name the Quidditch Captain, which is the person that loses the highest percentage of weight for the whole month!

    This month it's MindyBlack! Congratulations, Mindy!

    I know you have your badge for this, too, so I'll leave it at that here, too :)

    No matter your contributions, great or small, don't forget that I'm extremely proud of every ounce of effort you all put into participating in this House! I hope you're all having as much fun being geeky as I am :heart:

    Now, let's keep tearing it up in November!

    November Week 2 OWLs & NEWTs:

    (Starting after check-in between 11/4-11/7
    and ending with check-in between 11/11-11/14)


    OWL (exercise): Mountain Climbers: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KI8u58hPam4

    You earn 1 OWL for each rep. Each rep includes doing the move on the right and left leg. If you have questions, please ask!
    NEWT (food): Halloween was last week, and lots of us have extra trick or treating candy left over. Let's revisit this concept to help us limit the candy and not go overboard:

    Try replacing one sweet treat you'd usually have with a piece of fruit instead. If you already eat lots of fruit, try a new kind or something seasonal you might not have had in a while.

    This doesn't necessarily mean don't eat ANY candy, but replace one serving per day with a piece of fruit, to help you remember to limit it.

    You earn 1 NEWT for every day you either replace a serving of candy with a serving of fruit OR try a new/seasonal fruit instead of a fruit you regularly eat. If you have questions, please ask!

    ***Remember to double check the dates for this challenge! Don't start early and lessen your progress for the current week!

    These are also posted in the November blog, here: http://www.myfitnesspal.com/blog/bronwenhilary/view/gryffindor-november-owls-newts-163339

    Hi Gryffindors!

    In case you haven't seen on my news feed, I'm going home this week to see my Dad. His lung cancer is back and he's not expected to last the week. Sue, head of Ravenclaw House, is stepping up as Deputy Headmistress for me and will be posting the Inter-House results in the Great Hall as usual.

    I'm going to do my best to calculate this week's results and post next week's OWLs & NEWTs on time. I won't have time to send reminder messages, so I'm sorry if you forget. I hope at least most of you remember with status reminders :)

    I'll also do my best to keep you posted on when things will be back to normal. Is anyone willing to put themselves 'on call' in case I need some help calculating results or posting challenges? I'm not sure at this point if I'll need this, but it doesn't hurt to be prepared.

    Thanks in advance for being patient with me, Gryffs. You know I love you all and I'm proud of you <3

    Just keep your head up, today is a new day!
    I tend to do the same thing as you, I have a really good week and lose weight, then I just eat and eat and eat! And gain back what I lost. It is an awful feeling! It is like my mind wants me to stay fat! I have started to just sit in front of my fridge before I start to eat and think, am I really hungry?, do I really need to eat this?. When I stop and think about it (and sometimes it takes a while!) I will walk away without grabbing anything. It's a constant battle! But it seems to work!

    And also my thoughts and prayers are with you and your family,
