    I gotten all my 4 food colors in for the week and the strength work....it was lifting and carrying 50# bags of garden soil in and out of the car, then carrying it to the back yard. Who knew that the 8 trips I made carryng all those bags would count for something.

    We need a vote: For the color challenge - should it be one point for each color eaten for a total of 4 points - or should it be 1 point for each day at least 4 colors were eaten - for a possible total of 7??? Ravenclaws - what do you think?

    Weigh in:

    Wk 2: 69.8kg / 153.8lb
    Wk 3: 69.2kg / 152.5lb

    I've lost 4 kilos now so almost at my first goal of 5 kilos! Makes me very happy! :D And I definitely needed that to keep my motivation up.

    House points, well I've done the strength training, so that's 2 points? I'm not too sure about the colours, I have had 4, but I guess it depends how the voting goes. I say a point per day where we ate 4 colours :)

    Another week down - 8 to go!!

    When you weigh in Sunday, let me know how many days you ate at least 4 different color foods and how many days you did strength training. I'm keeping track of everyone who posts something here each day. Once everyone has weighed in, I'll award the house points for the week.

    And it's not too late to add your Harry Potter Challenge goal weight if you haven't done so already!

    Ravenclaw came in 2nd last week! Let's make it to #1!! GO RAVENCLAW!!

    137...sorry guys, I weighed the same.

    I didn't even see the challenges, everything on here gets so cluttered. I do most of these on my own, but I'll start just from this week. 3 points for eating 4 colors a day. 3 days of strength training :)

    Good morning fellow Ravenclaws!

    Sorry I haven't been around much. I've been studying extra hard for my CPA exam coming up on Monday. Hope everyone had a strong, colorful week!

    I'm down another 1.8 pounds to 290.2! I got in 2 strength training days and I definitely ate the spectrum of colors; so 9 more house points to my total!

    We're totally gonna kick some Slytherin/Gryffindor/Hufflepuff butt!

    Checking in!

    I've lost another pound this week...wahoo!:bigsmile:
    I also got all my strength training in this week as well...so what's that....3 points?? Not sure about the point thing. Sad to say that I didn't get 4 colors in each day...I tried though.:ohwell:

    We've been watching the Harry Potter marathon all weekend long and loving it :heart: ! I even leave it on for the dog when we leave the house:blushing: :happy:

    Hope you all have a wonderful week ahead!!

    Weighing in... 192lb- so have lost 3lb this week! Whoop whoop!!

    House points: strength training - 2 sessions (I always do this though so I don't know if they count)
    food- 7, I think -7 days of eating multi-coloured meals- so 4 colours in every meal. This was a great challenge- made my diet much more varied than usual!

    HP trivia from the main thread:
    HP Posts!

    DID YOU KNOW ?
    as you probably know, king’s cross station is where young wizards hop on the hogwarts express to get to school. what you might not know is that the station holds special meaning for j.k. rowling: it’s where her parents met. they were coincidentally both headed to arbroath in scotland when they met on the train. king’s cross was intentionally chosen as the gateway to hogwarts in homage to her parents.
