    so I didn't realize weigh-ins were due till just now, so I just weighed myself at 121.6 pounds (up 1.6 pounds :/) but usually I do them on wednesday morning before breakfast and I just ate lunch. so. not sure exactly how much of that is actually gained, though I have been going over calorie limits lately, so it's possible. blah.

    We won't go by that. Your two meals deep into the day and who knows how much water. Get a morning weight in when you can. No worries. :smile:
    thank you! and since we're going to be turning them in on mondays, I might start doing another one on sunday or monday just so I have another number that's a little more updated.

    How many sore Huffle-tummies do we have out there?!

    I just did 150 crunches, 25 of which were reverse crunches. (Ouchies!)


    Meeee!!! Isn't it weird how, after doing crunches, your core muscles just kind of...stay contracted? Does that make any sense? I am sitting here and realize that I was unintentionally holding my tummy in when normally I would be all slouched down and lazy. yay!

    So, I meant to go to the gym today... But I didn't.

    However, I did get on Pottermore and get sorted.

    I cried. Like literally cried. They put me in Gryffindor and I started bawling. Please don't make me go be one. :sad:

    And also, check out my new pics. They are from the premiere.
    Total representing. :)

    Right, sorry guys I have been a tad busy over the weekend.

    For Sunday I can't remember what I did now or if I even posted anything on here. I know that I got 10 glasses of water down though. Sorry about that.

    For Monday I only drank a measly 6 glasses of water but I did do 150 crunches, 50 reverse crunches and 50 bicycle crunches. Do they all count?

    Also Jen suggested that I have a NSV having logged in 15 days in a row. Plus my boyfriend and my sister have said that I am "looking really good" if that counts too. Otherwise I apologise if I appear to be boasting!

    Night night

    @bumflapassassin - Any variation of a crunch counts! :smile:

    @rawrkeia - If you're a Hufflepuff at heart, you belong here - no matter what Pottermore says! :bigsmile:

    @iluvsparkles - That's totally weird. I noticed that today, too after I did mine! My abs were tight for hours afterward!

    @momie0205 - Welcome to Hufflepuff! :bigsmile:

    You guys are kicking butt!!! Not that I expected anything less.. Hufflepuffs are hard workers!! :wink:

    As a group, we've lost 33.9 pounds in less than a week!

    End of the day tomorrow is the deadline for OWLs and NEWTs counting toward the September Prefect selection. The crunches/water challenge still goes until Saturday night, and those points will be added toward Prefect Selection for October.

    I think I need some input though, on how to go about choosing Prefects. Originally, I was going to choose one Prefect based on OWL scores and one Prefect based on NEWT scores. But I have *someone* on the spreadsheet that has a pretty good chance of having the highest score in BOTH categories!

    So, I thought choosing the top two from OWLs and NEWTs combined? What do you guys think?

    If I did it this way, I'd have one Prefect assign the exercise challenge for the week and the other assign the food challenge, and the following week, they'd switch and assign the opposite. Does that make sense?

    What other duties and such should we assign to Prefects?
