    I'm 159.6, that's .2 lbs down from last week.

    I didn't do the challenges very well because I was pretty busy, but I'm happy that I didn't gain.

    Great job this week, Gryffindors!!! :)

    Food Challenge:
    Try using different herbs, vinegar, citrus juices etc. as your spices instead of soy sauce and other sauces. A salad with either balsamic vinegar or one tbsp olive oil and one tbsp lemon juice is delicious! Add 1/4 cup parmasean cheese and some whole grain crackers as crutons and you have a very healthy and delicious cesar salad! Plain baked chicken with rosemary or red pepper flakes and garlic is delicious also! Experiment a little! :)

    Exercise Challenge:
    Try to up the intensity of your workouts 2-3 days this week! If you generally walk, try walking faster for a few minutes or do a little jogging. If you are strength training, try upping the reps some or increasing the weight. Just enough to stress your body a little bit but not to make you super sore. :)
    ______

    I'm ready to step up my workouts a bit, so this will be a good start! And I don't use a lot of sauces, but I'm going to try to experiment for fun :)

    Shout out your suggestions as you find them, guys! GO Gryffindor!!!

    Sorry for the late report on my weigh-in! I was 162.6 last week, and this morning I weighed in at 160.6! I’ve lost two pounds this week.

    May 29: 133.2
    June 5: 132.0

    I'm on vacation this week, so I do not want to know what the scales will look like when I get home. I'm trying to exercise when I can and choose the healthier option at most meals, but it's definitely difficult. If I'm lucky, it won't cause any backsliding.

    Hope everyone is happy with their losses! Yay Gryffindor!

    Last week's weight 163.8, this week is 159 :drinker:

    This loss was such a shock to me! The other day I weighed myself and it said I had gained 4 lbs since my last weigh in, and just now it said I lost 8 lbs :noway:

    I hope nothing's wrong with me! :huh: lol

    Great job everyone! Neoashi - Awesome!!! It might be some water retention so you might want to try being a little more consistant with how much water you drink (if you arent already)..that might give you a more consistant number. :)

    Still need weights from:

    My weight hates me right now. I weighed myself about 2 days ago and I weighed the same, then when I weighted myself today, I gained 3 lbs. I don't understand. I'm doing a terrible job at contributing to Gryffindor's weight loss.

    Great job Gryffindors! We lost .422% this week! Unless Slytherin does better than that we won this week!! (Or at least we will come in 2nd) AWESOME JOB!! Lets keep up the momentum!!

    Don't worry if you had a gain this week (or for a few weeks). Guilt and shame wont help fix it. Tell yourself, "its ok that I gained some, but now is my chance to fix it". :)
