Hi results for Sun-Sat
Weight 217.6
Owls
4 excercise
4 food
4 spirit
House points 5830 -
last week - 199
this week - 198.2
week's loss - 0.8
house points - 450
food owls- 7
exercise owls - 2
so the weight loss is creeping along slowly, probably because of all the exercise, but i'm seeing a big difference in my measurements. in the past month i've only lost a couple of pounds, but i've lost .25" in my neck, .5" in my hips, and a whole INCH in my waist!! :drinker: and the muscles in my legs are pretty awesome :bigsmile: so i'm making my goals a lot smaller from now on, i know i can't expect my usual 2lb losses anymore, so i'm aiming for 195 by the end of the month :flowerforyou:0 -
With the way I ate yesterday and today, I may not be for long :laugh: It's still exciting to see which one of us will get there first! Good luck!!so my lesson this week is dont weigh yourself early because its not accurate

Quick check-in before work at 279.8. Lack of exercise and not enough water are the culprits I think. I earned 4 OWLs for veggies and 1 OWL for exercise, and added 30 house points toward being victorious against the other houses.
Hope everyone has an awesome Monday and rest of the week!0 -
sorry i missed checkin yesterday-no power, no wifi!! liz, it was only about 15 hours for us, so i really feel for you without it for 1+week!!
ok, late weigh in this week and not a good one (i'm not surprised)
weight-176.8 is a 2lb gain :grumble: . i think i need to change something up...granted i ate really poorly a couple days, but i'm just not burning the number of calories with my workouts that i used to. feels like i'm putting in the same effort but not burning. i'm getting really frustrated and just not keeping with my program like i should. also, some personal stressors are coming to a head that will probably be hanging around for awhile. time to NOT go back to my usual stress eating.
OWLS-15
HP-156
clearly a bad week!! hoping to get back on track this week. on the up side, i did get a very nice bike ride in yesterday!! happy monday to all :bigsmile:0 -
Checking in for the week. (I changed my weigh-in day to Monday to coincide with my workout schedule... hope that isn't a problem) I started a new workout program this week after a 2 week hiatus so I already knew that I wouldn't really have any losses this week as my body adjusted. I'm happy that I got in all 6 days and looking forward to the next week!
Weight: 244.6
OWLS: 9 (6 exercise, 2 spirit, 1 food)
House Points: 357
I don't think I posted a November goal yet, so I will be aiming for 238 this month.0 -
Last week's Results: OWLS: 16 House Points: 351 weight: 127lbs
On to week #2 in November!!!! Again the no junk food thing is what I really need to work on- I swear 1 piece of candy turns into 5 begore I know it, and then I say screw it and the whole night is lost (and the calories I worked to NOT eat all day long). So here goes!!! My indulgence will be a Diet Dr.Pepper every day- its my weakness and helps keep the migraines away!

Hi,
Morning check in. I had a chocolate craving yesterday. I usualy do not get them, only occassionally. We were at the mall and passed the Godiva store. New parfait chocolate. I had to have one. Well, 2 and truffle. It could have been worse, but there went my owl for yesterday. It was worth it. Sweet craving gone. I was so proud of myself for resisiting the halloween candy. Did not have any at all this season. Resisted the candy at home and the office.
Also, forgot my ab challenge yesterday. oops.
Hope everyone is doing well.0 -
Been fighting off a cold this week and recovering from a fall on Thursday. I haven't had skinned knees like this since I was in grade school. Mostly ice and lots of sleep.

So a friend of mine came back from his honeymoon last night. He and his new wife went to Universal Studios in Orlando. They spent most of their time in The Wizarding World of Harry Potter. He even said they play Moaning Myrtle recordings in the bathroom (freaked him out as it was very realistic apparently). Anyways they brought me a present! Pumpkin juice!!

Thanks for the smiles everyone - I love reading your updates and side notes! :bigsmile:
My one week check-up was this morning. The doc says my eye looks good and is healing fine. He took the stitches out and said the double vision should go away now - apparently the stitches pull on the cornea and distort things. I can start taking actual showers again!!!! I've had to hold a washcloth over my eye while showering with one hand for the last week - so unsatisfying! :laugh: And I can pick up my monster cat again - both of us will be much happier now.
I totally blew the food challenge yesterday - in fact, I pretty much blew my whole diet yesterday. I'm trying to behave myself today and will be back on the exercise wagon tomorrow.
Happy Monday all!!0 -
I'm actually doing ok on Junk food! yay!
So - OWLS:
Spirit: 1 (Forgot to post yesterday I think)
Food: 2 (OMG!)
Exercise: 2
Yesterday I had some yummy earth organic fruit lollipops. 3 are 70 calories and since they last a long time and are super flavorful I find them REALLY satisfying on certain days.
Today I am probably going to have a little milk chocolate ball (40 cals). I haven't had it yet but I feel crappy today so I kind of think that might help since I forgot to bring my almonds.0 -
I am glad that the junk food challenge has a loophole this time around. I completely failed last time, but I have made it with no junk so far today. I'm currently thinking about fig newtons right now, however, so I think that will be my small not too unhealthy snack.
Glad to hear your stitches are out Sue! Happy Monday all!

So I've let myself slide with virtually no exercise aside from bowling with friends for a few days now, and I really need to get back on track. I think something about this season is settling in and making me just want to be lazy and comfortable and indulgent. Tomorrow morning, though, I will get up and I WILL do some exercise.
Hope everyone else is getting through this week as well. 0 -
Another day, I'm behving with the junk thing, so that's good. Need to get some exercise in sometime tonight though going out to dinner with coworkers. 0

Hi,
Checking in, Trying to remember the excercise challenge - for some reason I keep forgetting it. I did good with it yesterday. Have remembered once today.
Glad to hear you are doing better Sue! And I am sure your cat is happy again also.0 -
Hello Ravenclaws!
First of all, a shout out to my pal Craft338- known her since college and I'm so proud she's doing so well!
Next, I learned what happens when I don't think before I eat. I ate a bag of baked chips yesterday. No problem. Then I had a snack at class. No problem there. But when I came home and ate dinner, which put me dangerously close to my calorie limit, I realized my mistake. I should've had one OR the other, not both. The chips were fine, but I ate them because they were just there, not because I wanted them.
The yogurt pretzels on the other hand... those I would say were my treat for the day. And only 100 calories. I will do better today. My treat for Monday night was a skinny cow ice cream bar next to the fire- quite scrumptious!
Today I have a job interview. Wish me luck!0 -
