I have 1 OWL and 7 NEWTS this week. I'll weigh in tomorrow morning and let you know if I've lost.

7 OWLS and NEWTS for me too -- Josie I had a hard time getting up out of the plank the way I *think* it wanted me to so I just did my best - I mean even if you aren't doing it perfectly (as long as you aren't doing it in a way that you are hurting yourself) the fact that you did SOME kind of body movement for 15 minutes is better than not having done it, so in my mind it counts.

I have lost.... ZERO pounds! This is week 2 of that nonsense so hopefully I see a bit of a dip next week - but I have improved my body composition over the last 2 months by 2-3%! (Yay) -- I basically lost about 6 pounds in the last 8 weeks and nearly all of it was fat which is fantastic. I'm measuring in (calipers, wielded by a personal trainer) at 26% BF right now. My goal is 20%

Pleased as punch about the fat loss and I guess I attribute it to starting C25K and um..pigging the hell out (I eat 1800-2000 calories pretty regularly now - I upped my cals).

Haven't done my workout yet but I'm going to clock in 300 minutes this week.

Troy, 160 minutes of exercise a day is hardcore man.

I'm down 0.8lbs! (Love having a digital scale now, btw)
0 OWLs, 6 NEWTs
310 minutes of exercise, burned 4151 calories

Weight 153LB
5 OWLS and 4 NEWTS

Keep those numbers coming Slytherins!!

The challenges for next week have been added to the blog: http://www.myfitnesspal.com/blog/MacSkillz/view/november-slytherin-house-challenges-167219

Happy early Thanksgiving to all of you who celebrate! :drinker:

Thanks mac - i love the new challenges!

IF anyone wants to add a little challenge to their 21s, I do the first 7 balanced on my left leg, then do the second 7 balanced on my right leg (may not be possible depending on how good your balance is).

That engages your core a bit more while you do the arms.

Good idea!! I think I'm gonna try that! haha Thanks!

Hello fellow death eaters!


0 lb lost (I can't seem to get under 170 lbs and I only have 5 more lbs to go for my goal weight!)
0 OWLS
7 NEWTS
260 Min Exercising (3 - 10 mile run's and a 5k race - 2nd place overall!)
4278 Calories burnt

334 5 owls 5 newts and i will be going strong since the weight lifting i do now is hard to log here

so the quidditch cup is based on % lost not House points? What are the house points for?

Well, today turned into my cheat day by accident! We had a nice big snowstorm yesterday so I couldn't go out and buy any fresh groceries, then today I had to leave the house at 7am and didn't get back till just now (after 9pm), meaning I had to eat out for both lunch and supper and had no gym time at all. Didn't go hugely over in calories (I mean, I've definitely had worse days) but my sodium intake was ridiculous! Even eating a grilled chicken sandwich from Wendys all I could taste was salt.

Upside: Now the next time I think I'm craving fast food, hopefully I'll remember my saltburger and change my mind :P

Have done one set of the OWL exercises so far - they're harder on my poor sad arms than I expected!

Hope all you Americans are enjoying your Thanksgiving!
