had a rough weekend...my first since starting in january the scale reflected the over-indulgences... Oh well, back on track to drop this water weight!0

Good morning everyone!!!
Well - back to work (and I mean the weight loss work). This weekend was rough- mostly because I don't think I drank more than a cup of water each day!!! Soda has always been one of my downfalls and there was A LOT of soda this weekend
Ava had some pretty rough nights so I didn't work out in the mornings like I'm used to either. I can't wait until these damn molars are in- seriously- I just want to sleep more than 45 minutes at a time!!!!
OK- enough complaining. Its time to work!0 -
Good Morning Fellow Ravenclaws,
I want to apologize for letting my team down this week by not weighing in. I had an extremely rough week in terms of eating healthy, sleeping right, and exercising. I gained a couple of pounds, putting me back at 150 and I really let that get to me. I pretty much let self control go and ate/drank whatever I wanted. After wallowing and pepping myself back up, I am determined to get back on track! I promise to do better for our team.

DID YOU KNOW ?
helena bonham carter was denied admission to king's college, cambridge university, not because of her grades or her test scores but because school officials were afraid that she would leave mid-term to pursue her acting career. because of cambridge's rejection, helena decided to concentrate fully on acting.0 -
We had a really strong week - way to go Ravenclaw!! Top honors this week go to:
LJSpady - 10 pounds lost and 2.87% - Congratulations to this week's Prefect!

Wishfuljulia earned the most House Points this week - great job!
Here is this week's house chart. There were some late weigh-ins that are not on the chart - but don't worry, I've got them recorded!
And the house points:
We're still waiting for Hufflepuff to check in with their numbers. I'll let you know our standing as soon as they do.
Great job this week everyone!!0 -
No chart for weight loss this week? No chart for house points? I'm dying to know how we did!0

Sorry - messed up the format before. The charts are there now0 -
Woo hoo came second for the week, so proud of myself. So far I have 3 points, 1 for food and 2 for exercise.
Also congrats to Ravenclaw, do we know which house won?0 -
I have a good feeling about our standing last week!!!!
I love how organized our charts are- so easy to read, I love seeing how everyone is doing!!!!!!
GO RAVENCLAW!!!0 -
YAY House points! I'm doing really good with this weeks challenges too. I've been walking to my second job instead of driving and I live on fruits and veggies there just so yummy! So I've got 3 for the food and 3 for the exercise challenge already!
GO RAVENCLAW!!!! Everyone did so well this week!0 -
Oh, poo....I forgot all about house points. Would someone refresh my mind as to how we earn house points???
The chart looks great...hope we do better against the other houses this week.0 -

You earn a house point for every weekly challenge you meet. Plus, I'm keeping track of everyone who posts here each day - you earn one point for each day you post. :happy:
I'm not doing so good with the exercise challenge this week. I've had something to do after work every day that leaves me with no time to work out. But on the bright side, I AM getting in my 5 servings of fruits and veggies!
Still no word from Hufflepuff this week - the suspense it killing me!!0 -

yay! I've always wanted to be a prefect! lol
This week's challenges are pretty hard. Tryna get my veggies in!0 -
good morning all!!!
I was able to work out this morning (thank you Ava for only waking up 2x last night) and I have to say it feels great. I mean it kills me when I'm doing it, but I feel like the rest of my day is just more . . . energized (of course that could be the fact that I slept for more than an hour at a time, but I'm going to say its the exercise!!)0 -
Hey all, loving the challenges this week- been beefing up every meal with loads of veggies, something I always forget to do but they're so filling! Walked loads more as well, have been getting off the train/bus at an earlier stop to add on the extra 15 mins, so hopefully this week will be well better than last!0
-
Wooowee! I didn't realize how hard it was to get 5 servings in of fruits/veggies every day! Trying my hardest, though! Every other day I'm grabbing a fruit bowl from the breakfast-mobile that pulls up in front of work (instead of a Java Monster and a breakfast burrito that I used to get before this whole lifestyle change). Num num! Watermelon, cantaloupe, and strawberries are just the way to start the day0

Whoo hoo!!! YAY! Go us!
I have a question about this weeks exercise challenge... I haven't been able to work out all week since I started my new nanny job. I'm now working two full time jobs and will be until they both get cut back to part time in July. So I haven't been exercising like I'm use too due to complete lack of time, however I have been getting in at least 15 minutes more of walking per day than I use too. So does that still count as meeting this weeks exercise challenge?0 -

My understanding is that if it is over and above your "normal" cardio, then yes, it counts. Since you just started the nanny job, then it is a new activity level - so I say, go ahead and count it. :happy:0 -

RAVENCLAW :drinker: I love you!!!!!!!!!
On another note: I started 30 Day Shred this morning. So I am expecting some good numbers the next couple of weeks!!!!!!!!
The fruit/veggie thing is killing me- I thought I got a lot in but when its down to numbers I am seriously lacking :blushing: Doing better though- these challenges sure do come in handy0 -
Sorry guys this is looking like it's not going to be a good week for me. I normally see a change in the scale by Friday and I haven't. We will see come Sunday if it decides to move for me.0
