    House points for the food challenge this week will be one point for each day that you met the 4 color challenge - so a possible 7 points for the week.

    My weigh in: 178 today - down 2!

    3 points for strength training
    4 points for the food challenge - got thrown off course by a stomach bug :(

    Just checking in with my house points again now that we've voted. 2 pts for strength training and 5 for days of 4 food colours. So 7 pts for this week :). I'm not quite sure what my running total is.

    No worries - I'm keeping the running totals and will post them after everyone weighs in. Thanks for the update!

    Hi All,

    I stayed the same at 147 pounds. I didn't do any strength training this week (I've been really sick) but I did have 5 colorful food days.

    week 3 house points = 5
    previous total = 16
    total housepoints = 21

    This week's challenges from the main thread:
    Food Challenge:
    Seems like some of us have some trouble controlling our cravings so hopefully this challenge will help. Pick one or two foods you know is unhealthy that you tend to binge on (if you have one) and when you feel a craving for that food, take a small serving, put it in a baggie or a bowl and then put the rest away, go in another room and eat it slowly. Really savor the taste and texture of each bite. Hopefully you will find it is more satisfying that way! :)

    Exercise challenge:
    Try some type of exercise you either have never done before, or at least havent done in a long time. Can be anything at all..if its been years since you rode a bike, take a bike ride, or try jumping rope, or horseback riding or a new exercise video or go for a hike in a new location...anything that is a little bit different from what you normall do. Sometimes shaking things up makes your metabolism speed up and makes it more interesting for you! Maybe you will find a type of exercise you really enjoy! :)

    Good luck everyone!!!

    Hmmm - So how to give points for these?
    1 point for each day you short-circuit a binge and
    1 point for each new type of exercise

    Sound good?

    Cook2128 - hope you're feeling better :flowerforyou:

    Hey all!

    I'm at 147 this week and did strength training two days this week. I didn't know about all the challenges for points, so that's why I haven't been posting in regard to those.

    Keep up the great work everyone!

    Wow it's been so long since I've been here! Just got back from Florida. Wonderful trip.

    Anyhoo, I weighed myself and I didn't gain any weight! I'm still at 237. I'm sorry I couldn't lose any weight for our house, but to be honest I'm just happy I didn't gain weight while on vacation.

    Let's go Ravenclaw!

    Week 3 for house points... I did 2 days of strength training and every day I had at least 4 colors (I adore fruit and veggies)

    As for weight I'm very sorry to say I'm up 2, I'm weighting in at 203.

    It was a bad week, TOM came a week early and my boyfriend and I drove to NYC (from pgh) and spent 20 of 48 hours in a car eating junk food the whole way to attend a wedding that had *NO* water at it... who does that??

    I'll do better this week. Sorry I couldn't be more help Ravenclaws :-(
