    forgot to post my weigh in results with previous post. i am down to 179.8 today. that's a 0.4 loss for the week and i am now happily out of the 180s!!! i believe i already reported my goal for this month as another 5lbs (175), and i believe i am only supposed to start counting points earned today so no points to report today.

    Happy birthday, Craft!!!!!!!!!!!! Hope you have a fantastic day

    Yesterday, we went to see Toby Keith in concert.....what a concert!!!!!! This must be my 14th year seeing him. He is such a stud muffin!!!!! His concerts are so full of energy....love them! We tailgated as well. I ate healthy despite all the goodies that people brought.

    Today, I have to work from 4pm to 2am but first we are going to photograph a friend of a friend's wedding. That will be fun for sure

    Have a great day, everyone!!!!!!

    It's been raining nonstop today and my gym is closed for the whole weekend! Such a bummer, but I'm hoping to get back in there on Monday when they open to get some house points.

    Does our original post saying our goal count as an OWL for that day for posting?

    YES!! :happy: Anytime you post - even if you're just saying hi - counts as an OWL (but just one OWL each day for posting no matter how many posts...)

    Happy Sunday Ravenclaw!! I got up to a glorious morning in the low 80's so went for an early morning bike ride before it makes it back to the 110's!! Then, after some cleaning, I'll probably go for a swim later. Looking forward to earning a bunch of House Points today!

    Hope you all have a fantastic day!

    Happy Birthday!!! :flowerforyou: :drinker:

    Hopefully I can get to the gym today, although it's so beautiful here today I may opt for a walk/super slow jog outside.

    Thanks for re-posting the rules Sue!

    There are so many things to track, I'm adding my running totals at the end of my daily posts. If I post multiple times in day, I'll only add it once. With more folks posting, digging around in the old messages is getting more difficult.

    Meanwhile, I'm doing the classic yard maintenance thing for Labor Day. Pressure washed the deck and teak outdoor furniture yesterday. Off shortly to Lowe's to buy deck stain, moss soap, and some random other items.

    Good news on the scale front. The 'baby-boomer' scale (I joke that large numbers and back-lit display are for us aging baby boomers who can't see, see: http://www.amazon.com/Eatsmart-Precision-Bathroom-Technology-440-Pounds/dp/B0032TNPOE) seems kinder than the loaner. No goofy features, you get on, you wait for the number to stop flashing, you get off.

    I'm liking this weeks goals!

    STATS:

    *week of 8/28 OWLS*
    House Spirit/Posts - +7
    Rainbow meals - +7
    Targeted Exercise - +5

    Weigh-in: 192.4, down 2.4 from 194.8
    September weight goal: 188.4 (4 lb)


    *Progress towards week of 9/4 OWLS*
    House Spirit (post ) -
    Food (64 oz water) -
    Exercise (Move) -

    *September exercise minutes*
    Month to date total = 50
    9/4 stats - Walking - 30, weight training 20

    First let me say HAPPY BIRTHDAY CRAFT!!!
    Also, I was very pleased when I hopped on the scale today and saw that I am at 162 lbs on the dot! YAY!!! My September goal is actually only 160lbs, so only 2 lbs away! I might need to set a new goal if I keep losing so quickly. Anyways, I hope that everyone is having a GREAT Sunday!!!

    Such a beautiful day, my roommate and I took a nice long walk on the trails this afternoon.

    Tonight my roommates and I are having a girls night in, and ordering chinese and playing Beatles themed Monopoly. We used to do it a lot last year, and so we're starting the tradition again. I made sure I'll have enough calories for today, so I should be good.

    Also:

    61 House points for exercise
    1 OWL for taking stairs everywhere today and for walking
    1 OWL for getting my 8 glasses of water in
    1 OWL for posting here.

    My roommate and I had chinese night and board games last night! It's a really fun way to ease into the school year.

    And good for you for taking the stairs. I find that I definitely move much more when school is in session. It's so much easier just to park away from campus than to deal with parking wars close to it.

    Oh totally. Every time I realize I have to drive somewhere I die a little inside. Parking is horrendous.

    Good Evening Ravenclaws!

    Don't you just hate it when all you want to do is one thing but it seems like there's always 100 things that NEED done before you can actually do what you want? That's how's it's been for me lately. It's not an excuse; it's just how I've been feeling.

    Anyway....weighing in at 279.8 which is up a bit again. Now that I've gotten some of the crazy out of the way, I'm focusing again on logging my food and getting back to scheduled exercising. This includes working for OWLs and keeping track of House Points. I love this challenge and group of people and I really want to get re-involved.

    On a more random note, I've been SO bummed I haven't gotten my Pottermore email yet! Has anyone else gotten in? I was 'selected' but I haven't gotten the go-ahead email. I know it's only one more month but I'm so excited!!

    'For Ravenclaw, the cleverest would always be the best...'

    Hey emmie. Sounds like you've been living my life! And its going to get worse on Tuesday when I start new classes. Ah, well - I guess that's why I'm a Ravenclaw!

    I wasn't even close to getting selected as a beta tester for Pottermore, but I was reading today that they're getting ready to send out more invitations. I hope you're in this batch!

    So, what's your goal weight for September? Glad to see you back in the common room!

    I've been off the wagon the last couple days with a friend visiting town, but the damage wasn't too much and I am ready to get going for the September challenge.

    current weight: 160.0
    Sept. goal weight: 155.0

    My goal is also to continue walking every day in preparation for the Portland marathon on Oct. 2nd!
