Hey molly, people say zig zagging is good-eating less one day and lots the next. Also changing yr exercise routine works well. Apparently people get stuck because their body gets used to the exercise and eating routine. I hope this helps

morning. last week i was -1.1 pound. this week I'm +2.2 pounds Just recording this here because I'm not aware of a new spreadsheet. Also no more NEWTs OWLs -6 House Points - 60 I have 2 weeks out of the office now. I'm feeling really great :laugh: I have been bleaching my hair as white as possible for over 10 years and…

I'd say that 1 or 2 pounds each week is a realistic and healthy loss. Unsure about the science of metabolism but I have been working out for some time now and I have found it addictive. I will say though that you need to give it time to notice a difference. Be realistic in your workout routine and build it into your…

Yes, Molly, it sounds like your stepfather is being somewhat childish. You'll be moving out soon though right? Look forward to it :wink: As for the results, I'm sure you did fine. You sound like a hard working person. I'll eat my gym hat if you fail :sick: Newts 4 Owls16 (+22 because I am ignoring yesterday's 1 owl because…

Re. the Fortnight issue, I have just googled and found that in North America it's generally only communities like the Amish who say "fortnight" while everyone else says "bimonthly", which is a bit naff if you ask me. So it must sound a bit twee or something!

thanks guys. He's called Zachary...named after some kind of High School Musical awfulness :huh: Still, my sister is really jealous because he only took 3 hours from labour and my brother's wife only had gas and air (which means pretty much nothing to me) Today I ate some nuts. I was going to call them naked nuts because…

some random things: today i got a new nephew. a therepist once told me i was like will o the wisp. i have not bought any milk for almost a fortnight. owls 50 newts 1 house points 50

Good to hear from you Queeda. Don't sweat it, even though everyone laughs at us Hufflepuffs (http://i1.kym-cdn.com/photos/images/original/000/256/266/fb3.jpg) we are managing, atlhough that's not to say that we don't need you :wink: Today I have eaten spinach. I think I deserve some kind of prize.

amber, i feel like i'm hanging onto the wagon with my fingernails sometimes. logging doesn't work for me but this forum helps, i think because i'm part of a bigger thing. excercise is any strenuous activity you wouldn't normally do. So walking around and going up ladders at work shouldn't be counted but a morning spent…

Hey guys this may go wrong as i'm trying to access mfp on my walkie-talkie which has deteriorated in efficiency and simplicity since I plugged it into the dying laptop. Anyway 3 hours done today and I havent eaten yet so i'm looking forward to a meal out with the boyfriend. Tried out gillian's 6pack dvd. Not that I want a…

Hey guys, I have had a look at the spread sheet and I do not understand it so I'm afraid I'll have to leave it to you guys to figure out (numbers are not my strong point - sorry) But I have been putting numbers into my own squares so it's definately not me messing things up :happy: I am upset with the scales today but I…

Indeed, slight changes are good. good idea Molly :wink: Here are some of the costumes from my party. There were lots of really good ones but here's me and 2 of my friends: By the way I am back on the exercise now. Hooray!

i agree, keep the same challenges!

Just wanted to say WOW - Alaska and Molly are doing really well on the OWLs this week :happy:

EUREKA; I'VE GOT IT! robot legs sorted. Now I need an antenna and some gin and tonic. I'll post a picture from the party though because it'll be cooler. Foot's ok. Not bad enough to bother the doctor with - he doesn't have time for me so I don't like to wait around for him. But in all seriousness, I think rest is…

*slumps dejectedly into the room* Evening. What kind of idiot buys really extravagant gadgets for herself days before her car's in the garage for the second time in the shortest month? This one right here :frown: I'll have to start selling things at this rate, That's almost £900 on car repairs this month; it's a good thing…

Evening, I am just here to show off really. I got myself some presents and they arrived early. I got a 160GB ipod (because my original one is dying of old age) and a shuffle for the gym (I called it Sweaty Betty), which I am sure will end up in the wash. My poor, equally geriatric laptop is really struggling to cope with…

I meant on the forum. I kept checking back because I guess I had a slow weekend but not much was happening on here. Obviously I think Hufflepuff is the best house in Hogwarts; we've been killing it with the house points... *runs around the common room doing hi-fives*

It's an interesting concept but I get bad vibes from the link you posted, plus I personally could not fast for a whole day; I would be so grumpy and I also get the dizzies and lack concentration if I don't eat regularly. Good luck if it works for you though.

Sorry but I don't know anything about this diet. How does it confuse the metabolism? (Simple terms please, for I am a simple girl!)

I'm putting my numbers on the spreadsheet but if we switch to other challenges I'll recalculate. Where is everyone? I've hurt my foot so I'm going to be doing mainly swimming this week. putting this here so I can easily find it later https://docs.google.com/spreadsheet/ccc?key=0AkCoTRlaFXkodDZXZ2hZLUhlUEpKODdaSEhXR0FBWUE

I have just started eating this and am finding it keeps the hungries away until lunch http://www.tesco.com/groceries/Product/Details/?id=268583054

I was thinking that the NEWTs are a bit low for most of us, considering that guidance is to eat at least 5 portions of fruit/veg daily... Perhaps we could keep the same challenges with 10 bonus points at the end of the week if you improve on your score for this week? What do others think to this? p.s. thanks for the…

hehe, no further aquatic incidences although that's not to say that I haven't been a berk while doing other things! I tried the sauna this week since I went in the steam room the week before and I must say I was more comfortable in the sauna - the steam room made my eyes really hurt. I have no idea what it's meant to do to…

BLIMEY! No I just awarded myself an arbitary 20 owls becuase I COULDN'T keep up with the counting! Looking back I think I may have sold myself short there... Today I talked myself out of going to the gym then I reminded myself that if I don't do excercise I have to do something really boring so I talked myself into going…

I did a 30DS workout today but only someone with severe counting problems could keep track of the sets you do in those. So I thought I'd award myself 20 OWLs for that, which would be below the number of sets I did but any more seems greedy. Is everyone ok with that? I did also do a bit of…

OK, thanks, I get it now. A mechanic is looking at my car tomorrow...I sense an expensive quote (along with a wagging finger and a stern "you shouldn't have put it off for so long") I got stuck at my friend's house last night because we had a bit of snow and the taxi drivers freaked out and stopped answering the phone. I…

1 Owl for each set of 10 if you did any exercise towards our house points. Sorry guys but what does this mean? My brain doesn't seem to be working very well recently.

Amber, I like the NEWT challenge, I'm going to start playing again. I'd suggest an excercise one but I feel that since I've been so lax with everything someone else should have a go. I weighed in at the same weight today and have 155 house points for the week.

This appears to be a joke spreadsheet that is un-editable. Either that or I'm being an idiot again.
