    Ok I am having a brain fart which day did we start the new challenege of fruits and mountain climbers and when does it end? Then which day to which day does the exercise minutes count for so I can post my stats thus far?


    Thanks for your help.

    New challenges started Monday, and the exercise minutes count from September 5th - October 3rd.

    Ah for the Love of Chocolate Frogs!! I messed up then! (What a perfect example I am!!)

    Sunday stats - 3 serving of veggies
    No pushups... (Who picked those anyway?!?)

    For today and yesterday...No exercise or mountain climbers (sorry) but I managed 2 portions of fruit today. Pretty lame but I would not normally eat ANY fruit so I feel quite chuffed that I managed grapes and an apple in one day.

    So that's 2 newts total for me.

    Okay, so I've completely changed my plans for posting my results etc. I'll be posting them every day because I'm worried I'll mess it up if I'm adding up several days. I hope this is okay!

    Sunday I did no exercise and ate no fruit, sorry guys!

    Monday (Sept. 12) -
    OWLs - 0
    NEWTs - 1
    House Points - 20
    Weight - 171

    Tuesday (Sept. 13) -
    OWLs - 2
    NEWTs - 0
    House Points - 65
    Weight - 171

    Totals so far

    OWLs - 2
    NEWTs - 1
    House Points 85
    Weight - 171

    I'll post like this on a daily basis since I think it's a lot easier to understand etc. It's also easier for me to keep track of. Nicole, let me know if this is okay :)

    I survived my surgery, but now I am on a very limited diet of mostly liquids some pudding and mashed potatoes. Not sure how this will effect my weight loss, but hopefully everything will be alright.

    Stats:
    9/12-9/12
    OWLs:8
    NEWts:10
    House Points: 120

    I can't exercise while I am in recovery so I will focus on the fruit and some light walks.

    I think standing, they would just be basically high knees.

    Tosay's stats: 71 house points, 1 newt and 4 owls. Sorry, can't remember yesterday's and it's getting a bit late so I'm hoping you'll be able to collect mine daily. Let me know if not though and I'll get a different system. Ta!

    Edit: just realised that I'd only racked up 2 newts so that's 3 newts, 4 owls and 71 house points total so far.

    i posted the modified mountain climber i'm doing but the ones standing up you lean against the wall and just move your feet/legs like scissors back and forth. personally those seem more difficult.

    hey perfects! ran across this website yesterday http://www.mikechangfitness.com/blog/ it has a bunch of excerises that we could potentially do for challenges...of course most of use would have to modify just to spice it up a bit.

    Yesterday's stats:
    Owls 2
    Newts 2
    House points just 1 (1 minute of mountain climber :wink: )

    Tennis class again today so the numbers will be high tomorrow.

    Exciting news....I weighed myself today and I'm down to 142. That means I'm exactly 10 pounds from my goal weight!! I can't believe I'm almost out of the 140s.

    1 newt, 3 owls and 20 house points for today, which makes:


    4 newts, 7 owls and 91 house points total so far.

    Torchwood is on later so I may just get some crisps from the car as a special treat while I watch (they're in there so that it's more difficult to *accidentally* eat them all at once)

    Also, do I get a NSV for managing to do the lunges with bicep curl exercise in 30DS without giving up before Gillian allows me to? I've been doing the DVD for some time now (on and off) and I've never managed it before today

    Torchwood!! I love Torchwood. Wish I could get British shows online like I can American shows. I'm too cheap to pay for cable here.
