Bump! Hi Hufflepuff!! :bigsmile:0
-
From September 6 - September 9;
OWLs: 30 (300 push ups). Nicole, I also have an additional 10 OWLs as I did 100 push ups the day before. I believe you have noted these already, so the 30 need to be added on, if I'm correct in my thinking.
NEWTs: 2
House Points: 185
I've also lost 1lb this week!
I've decided I'm going to post my figures on a weekly basis, as this is a bit easier for me. I quite work out the best day to post my results/figures though. I'm thinking Sunday is the 'best' day as it's the start of a new weekly house challenge so from next weekend, I'll post my figures on a Sunday.
I have a busy weekend this weekend and a sad one too, saying goodbye to my best friends who are off to University in the next 10 or so days. It'll certainly be a sad one! Have a great weekend Huffles!0 -
here are my totals monday 9/5 to thursday 9/8
OWLs: 5
NEWTs: 2
House Points: 353
my arms are so sore from going up to 8# hand weights from 5#. does anyone have any suggestions? other than rest and stretching? i'm doing upperbody weights every other day. i'm on a monday, wednesday, friday schedule.
maybe do the weights every other day? that way they get to recover.
I'm going to post my stats for the week on Sunday I think because it'll be easier for this week. Can post daily after that if you like or continue to do it weekly. Whatever, man :smokin: and yes, hufflepuffin, thanks for bearing with US - we are a bit of a rabble :laugh:0 -
Yay for the weekend!
Here are my totals from Monday 9/5- Friday 9/9

Hello Hufflepuffs! I just want to stop in and share some of my success! I finally posted progress pics! I always said I would do it once I was down 20lbs. Be warned I am in my underwear but I would like to share the link for anyone looking for some inspiration! Have a great weekend!

Are we having a new challenge tomorrow or is the push ups/green foods challenge continuing?0

Are we having a new challenge tomorrow or is the push ups/green foods challenge continuing?
As far as I understood myself and the other Prefect should be switching duties. If I am correct that means I pick the exercise challenge this week. I also think we are supposed to start the new challenges tomorrow. Hopefully our awesome leader will clarify everything for us soon!0 -
Whenever we do switch over this week's exercise challenge will be mountain climbers! I know everyone is going to hate me but start of slow and you will be amazed at how quickly you can build up. Here is a video for everyone who doesn't know what a mountain climber is
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DyeZM-_VnRc . Mountain climbers are difficult so I think 30 secs should be considered something like a set and should count for one OWL. I am having surgery Tuesday and I am afraid the recovery will leave me unable to participate in this challenge after Tuesday so I will get in as much as I can until that time. Everyone is doing awesome! :flowerforyou: 0 -

Stats for the week:
OWLS: 42
NEWTS 20
House Points: 430
That's Sunday to Saturday with House Points starting on Monday.
My weight this week was a little jumpy, but my low weight was 153.6. (It was right there for 3 days and then jumped up 2 pounds suddenly on Friday morning so I'm sticking with the lower weight since I think the other must have been water retention.)
NSV this week, had to buy clothes so that I would have things to wear to work and got some great deals at a consignment shop in the area. Spent more than I wanted, but got A LOT for what I spent. Anyway, I finally have legs that I feel confident enough in to wear leggings. I've never even imagined myself in leggings and NEVER considered buying any, but I look and feel awesome in them!0 -

That is so awesome about the leggings I hope to maybe look pretty good in some too. I have never wore them ever.0 -

Sorry for so many posts. I have 3 kids so we stay home alot so all I have is time to workout and be on here. Plus, my husband works 6 days a week a lot so he is wore out in the evenings. Which is good for me cause I am losing weight and have not been happier just seems like I post way too much.0 -
Whoa, I'm sorry Hufflepuffs! I completely forgot we announce the new in-House challenge on Saturdays!
Prefects, please post the in-House challenges for this week.
lhurtubise, I see you've decided on Mountain Climbers! 30 seconds a set for one OWL is fine by me. Do them slowly at first if you have to, Huffles!
Jenn_W, you'll be deciding our food challenge this week!
Thank you, lhurtubise, for reminding me about the in-House challenge. The weekend just got away from me.
My apologies again, my lovelies!0 -
Mountain climbers sound good to me. I've never really attempted these so I'm looking forward to doing them.
I'd just like to share that I've lost another 1lb so I'm happy today. Only 18lbs to go until I reach my goal!0 -

Ugh, I did it again. Weight 143.6. It was such a victory for me to get below 150 and yet I keep recording my weight wrong!! I guess my mind just can't comprehend that I'm actually this little.0 -
Weigh in: 203.4 lbs (stayed the same)
Exercise Minutes: 1015 minutes
Exercise Challenge: 1 set (too painful, I have a bad shoulder right now ... not an excuse ... a fact)
Food Challenge: 34 servings (exceeded 3 servings on 3 days)
This wasn't one of my best weeks ... considering what I've been eating I can't complain about staying the same. I'll do better for the team this week.0 -
This out to be interesting. MFP doesn't have mountain climbers as an excercise in the database. Not sure yet how I'll calculate those calories.0

Wow ... just checked out the Mountain Climbers clip. Looks tough, like a good overall workout. That's what I love about this group, I'm trying things I wouldn't have tried before. Thanks for that :flowerforyou:0

I'm sorry guys, but I have an awful weekly update

NEWTs: 2
House Points: 0! I've been busy lately so I've just been making sure to eat under my calories goals lately and that's it
weigh-in: 117.6 (lost .8 pounds)
I'll try to participate more in the challenges this week! I'm so sorry for bringing our totals down.0 -

Hmmmm.... What should we do food wise....
Fresh/raw fruit... a point for each serving, max of 5.... (There should still be affordable options out there for most - but I guess if not, frozen is next best.)
My stats for the week: (minus Sunday & Monday)
OWLs: 16
NEWTs: 25
House Points: 575
Weight: 170.6
Ugh!! I have been a bum this week!! I need to get back into my business. Stupid work isn't making my life any easier, Poop!!0
