    Spreadsheet on Google Docs is a pretty smart idea, no harder to enter them there than on here, and you do have an awful lot of other stuff to deal with. :)

    Maybe post the link to Open Office software too, when you give us the Google Docs location, in case anyone doesn't already have Excel etc?

    On holiday, not sure about the scales I'm using, and I'm eating out a lot too so my weight's all over the place. Still below target weight though, and I'm sure a lot of the weight I've put on is due to sodium and swollen muscles - I'm doing a LOT of exercise here! :smile:

    Nothing else. Restarting c25k today so I will actually have some exercise. Thinking of starting spike calorie-ing tomorrow, having read up on it, to see if I can kick myself out of this horrible plateau.

    Hi guys! I was a bit lazy over my birthday weekend, and I'm getting caught up tomorrow. Promise! :)

    Eating got off track a bit this weekend - I stayed away from solid grains, but I did have two beers at the Super Bowl party I went to (and two cups of cranberry juice and rum) and ate WAY too much food. Had a much better day Monday!

    9 pounds in January, that's amazing!! Keep that up and you will easily make your February goal. Must be the quidditch training. I wish they had a quidditch league for old people, I would join right up.
    Have a great week!

    yea i can definitely say the weirdest experience of my working week was trying to build a prototype Quidditch goal post. I will need to post some pics when they are completed and in place.

    Happy Friday, Gryffindors!

    I'm doing my best to have the spreadsheet set up sometime this morning. It would be awesome if you waited to post your stats (or at least look for the chart and post them again there) until the chart is ready!

    Thanks so much guys. <3

    Headmistress interruption:

    IF YOU REPLY TO THIS THREAD, YOU'RE ACCEPTED!

    Please read the rules (http://www.myfitnesspal.com/topics/show/398364-inter-house-challenges-rules-info-s) before you ask questions! It's very likely they will be answered for you there. You're always welcome to ask more questions after!


    Carry on... :)




    Let's give this a try.

    Here's the link to the spreadsheet. You should be able to access it AND edit it from this link, with or without actually having Excel on your actual computer. You should only be editing information for yourself ONLY. If you need help with doing that correctly, always feel free to ask.

    To decode my system a little bit:

    The dates are always the last day of that week to check in, so the Monday. So for last week, check in was between 2/3 and 2/6, so the spreadsheet date you should enter under is 2/6. It will read 6-Feb.

    HP stands for House points, enter yours there. O&N&S is a lumped sum of all your OWLs, NEWTs and SPEWs. If you'd still like to comment on how you did on them separately, feel free to post it again in the Common Room! I love hearing how you're doing even if I don't have time to reply to you all individually.

    The % Lost column should update itself when you enter your weights. PLEASE DO NOT MESS WITH THIS COLUMN! I will copy your numbers into my master spreadsheet every week to calculate the totals (so I can omit people who missed weigh ins, etc, and make it simpler for you guys).

    You're free to scroll to the right and enter a goal weight for each month. For February, if you've already posted one, it's in the chart now.

    The total House Points and % Lost should also update themselves. PLEASE DON'T MESS WITH THESE COLUMNS, EITHER! If there's a problem, let me know and I'll double check it. Easy peasy.

    Here's the link: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheet/ccc?key=0AgqIcbJ240bVdFBBNFlUUjFPOUFmUjJRZ0R0RS04MEE

    Go ahead and start entering your info starting in the 13-Feb column. Don't enter previous info at this point, I'm cutting it off so I can do the calculations.

    Again, let me know if you have troubles or any questions!

    I'm going to update the Gryffindor Blog later and repost that, too. Everything will be recorded so you can look back on it if you have questions.

    Good luck to everyone finishing up this week! <3
