    Good morning all...

    For Yesterday:
    NEWTS-Got my 5 veggies+6 cups of water
    OWLS- Not sure how we are counting these but, I did 20 tricep dips (YOWZA!)
    House Points- 30


    Here's a little trick for sneaking in some extra veggies-I've been making fruit smoothies for breakfast and I add a serving of baby spinach and a serving of carrots. Put a little splenda in the blender and you won't even taste a difference!

    Let's all work hard to RESIST the candy today! Happy Halloween!!

    Here are my stats for today:

    Newts: 13 (9 water) + (4 veggies) unless mushrooms are considered a veggie??? then I would have +1
    Owls: 0
    House Pts: 0

    Alas, I only ate three mini candy bars, much less than I typically would, and I am well under my calorie goal for today.
    Yes!!! What a great way to start week #2 --in the green!!!! Will post measurements tomorrow am.

    I have several people ready for the 30 day Shred challenge. I am so excited! Make sure you post your starting measurements by Friday. Also if you can not or do not want to participate in the 30 day shred challenge I have another option for you inspired by Molly! An alternative can be to try and do 1,000 minutes of exercise in November! That is an excellent way to stay motivated with a challenge and help with House Points. Let's do it Hufflepuffs!

    10/31

    OWLs - 4 (20 Tricep Dips)
    NEWTs - (5+16) 21
    House Points - 173

    I did Day 1/Level 1 30DS... Ugh!! Push Ups killed me! The rest wasn't too terrible.

    How do you want the measurements?? I have a ton (waist/hips/chest/left-right arm/calf/thigh).... I am going to have problems around Thanksgiving because I am going 'home'... But I will do what I can. :0)

    It's actually 1000 exercise minutes over the entire month, which works out to around 33.5 minutes a day. Obviously if you can achieve 1000 minutes a week then you are more than welcome to do that!

    I suggested the idea of 1000 minutes throughout November on my profile about 10 or so days ago, I didn't really think anyone would be interested in joining me in the challenge. If anyone else wants to join then feel free to do so. We don't have a thread set up, it's actually very disorganised :laugh: However the more the merrier :)

    Measurements can include waist, hips, thighs, arms and bust if you are female. Any others are welcome but not required!

    Good luck with the JM 30 day shred! I'll keep working on logging house points but, I find Jillian Michaels to be a very unpleasant media personality. Although, if you all have success, I may change my mind about her:tongue:

    I forgot my healthy packed lunch today. Found some community snacks in the staff lounge at work but, they were anything but healthy. Now I feel chubby, tired and really hungry. Too bad the snacks I did manage to put together for a make shift lunch were loaded with sugar and carbs and now I am nearly out of calories. That will teach me not to forget my lunch again!

    I agree. i find her highly unpleasant, but extremely effective .... That's why I do her workout because she is so effective.

    Stats for 1/11

    OWLs - 5
    NEWTs - 8
    House Points - 30

    Sorry I've been less active in here today. I start a work placement tomorrow so I have been stressing about that today, as well as preparing for it. I'm hoping it goes well as I will be there once up a week up until May, so fingers crossed.

    Thanksgiving is soon isn't it? Being English I don't celebrate such thing, but I've always wanted to have a holiday/celebration like thanksgiving because it seems like such a nice thing.
