    Last Weeks Weight - 173.1
    This weeks weight - 172.4

    Total loss of 0.7lbs

    I've had a tough week this week. I can't exercise to burn any of the calories that I eat so what I eat is pretty much what shows up on the scales the next week. I've had a lot of alcohol and have eaten out 3 times so some days I also haven't known how many calories I'm eating either. I've tried to pick healthier things most of the time though so I'm happy with a 0.7lb weight loss. This week I'm definitely gonna work harder on my diet for my fellow Gryffindors! It helps that I don't have any family events or outings planned! :)

    Great total loss so far everyone!!

    Good Morning Team! Sorry for the delay (I sent a message but wasn't sure if it would be too late, so just figured I'd post here this morning) I lost 3.6 this week. Here's hoping next week is just as great! Nice loss so far everyone!

    house leader, (uno, right?) -

    just a thought that may or may not make your life easier: you might want to ask our fellow gryffindors to send you a private owl on weigh in days so you don't have to sort through all the common rubbish to find all the magic numbers you're seeking. i've found in another course of mine (the fascinating topic of muggle non-mums) that it is much easier to keep record of the necessary information in that way, and while it does keep the owlery a bit busy, it's good for business and does cut down on correspondence being as buried as a resurrection stone in an enchanted forest!

    warmest regards,
    stacy
    bad *kitten* gryffindor
    :tongue:

    Hey! Thanks for the idea but I think it might be too complicated that way bc I wouldnt know for sure who the person was since i get alot of messages from random people..i think it is easier to have everyone weigh in here so I know for sure they are a gryffindor and not trying to sneak in..hehe :tongue: :smile:

    Uno, I was in such a hurry this morning and forgot to weigh. I'll weigh when I get home and post immediately. If you can't wait until then, I did weigh on Saturday at 144.

    nevermind..I just did it! We lost a total of 141lbs for all the people who weighed in this week and lost 2.513% of our total groups body weight! (only for the people who weighed in last week AND this week). WTG everyone! lets try to do even better next week! :)

    WAHOO!! GO GRYFFINDOR!!
    We lost a total of 141 lbs and 2.5% of our groups weight!!!

    Just to make sure everyone is doing this the same, we are only using members numbers who weighed in both last week AND this week and the calculation is :

    ((groups weigh last week-groups weight this week)/groups weight last week) * 100= weight loss percentage

    awesome work everyone!!

    I think the cut off should be Monday Night at Midnight Eastern Time for weighing in.

    For next week, use the most current weigh you have for each member (so for most, use this weeks weigh in as the "weight last week") this way we dont penilize anyone more than once a week for having a bad week. :)

    Looks like we smoked the competition! Let's keep this momentum up Gryffs! :drinker:

    On another note, has anyone tried a new recipe yet? Tonight I'm making portobello mushroom pizzas (mushrooms grilled with tomato sauce, fresh basil, and cheese on top). We should post our recipes once we've tried them!

    I did my C25K training outside yesterday for over 40 minutes! Does that count as two days? lol

    I also need to find some new recipes and do some grocery shopping. I actually tried a new one about a week ago and had fun trying it out.
