Sorry, it just felt like I was talking to myself for a while. I hope everyone got through the last week relatavely unscathed...and if a few pounds have gone on, at least you probably had a nice time and you all know that you will be able to get rid of it again. :smile: It would be nice to see everyone on here again!

Yo. weighing in, lost .6 pounds which sounds piddly but I have stayed the same for so long. The week's stats are: NEWTs 33 OWLs 12 House Points 280 I think I did a lot of dancing last night but I can't really remember and I feel so broken today given that I saw to a lot of vodka. getting points for being very drunk and…

Wow, been really poor at posting regularly, sorry guys. I'm also doing pretty crap at logging :blushing: mY numbers for the week: NEWTs 25 OWLs 7 House Points 170

Sorry, more NEWTs to add (silly doing this during the morning really) NEWTs 10 OWLs 0 House Points 0

Right, final scores for last week: 190 NEWTs 27 OWLs 343 House Points This week's numbers so far: NEWTs 6 OWLs 0 House Points 0 I got quite sick because the restaurant we went to served me part-cooked turkey...I didn't eat much of it but I've been in discomfort with tummy aches and the dizzies. They gave us all a free…

Yes, you can get guns if you want them but most people in the UK do without. I think I feel much safer with them less available than I would if, for example, our Police service carried guns or if people had them legitimately in their houses. The damage caused by a gun cannot be undone; I mean what is a gun for if it's not…

Right, going away this afternoon for the evening (to eat, drink and be merry) so won't be able to post my newts until tomorrow but I've visited my trainer at the gym and gained a load more house points: 165 NEWTs 27 OWLs 343 House Points This week's NEWT challenge: 5 NEWTs per 8+ cups of water consumed 1 NEWT per portion…

I haven't read the rest of the this thread but this comment astounds me. stab wounds are horrific and devastating, potentially fatal. The most common reason for knife possession on the streets is "self protection" but those who carry knives are likely to get stabbed by their own weapon. Even if a stab wound does not kill…

Well done, it's really crud that you hurt yourself and had this experience but thanks for sharing...I have often wondered what I should do when I reach my goal; by the sounds of things I ought to keep my exercise up while ever I can and keep improving my diet.

oops, didn't post since tuesday...got a bit busy numbers for the week so far (although I'm about to go to the gym to talk to my trainer about motivation and the benefits of going backwards on the cross trainer): 155 newts 21 owls 193 house points Weighed in at the same stupid weight again...may have something to do with…

i started off runnung at about 8 but today i graduated to 11. having said that i am an appalling runner in that i smoke and struggle to breathe.

No worries Charlotte, glad you're ok :wink: numbers for the week so far: 50 newts 21 owls 69 house points Got an email from "Adam" at the gym wondering if I need some help getting back into my routine. I think I do but I'm not sure he can help. A few months ago I was killing it with the gym time but not any more. I just…

thanks queeda logic, the challenges run from sunday to sat (so new challenges start on sundays). numbers for the wk so far: 35 newts 10 owls 20 house points

Hi logicandlove, in house challenges are chosen by prefects. OWL challenge is the exercise challenge NEWT challenge is the food challenge Each week the earning/adding up of NEWTs and OWLs are different, and the results determine who the prefects will be. Prefects get a reign of 2 weeks and get to chose a NEWT and OWL…

wot, no food challenge?? just saw my neice in her christmas production at the church. she's ultra excited since she will be 6 tomorrow...she can't wait to get to bed!

just putting this here so i can find it again. thanks dude

Evening all, I hope you are well. I'm up at 2am with toothaches :sick: also I sliced my thumb and little finger on my scissors while cutting my friend's hair :ohwell: it's just not fair! Final numbers for the week, though I may be a bit late since prefects are already picked: OWLs - 82 NEWTs - 110 House Points - 430 For…

Numbers for the week so far: OWLs - 82 NEWTs - 91 House Points - 430 Also stayed the same weight. Queeda, one day i'm going to lose 2 more pounds and my ticker is going to say something like "0 lb to go"and at some point my aim will change from losing a bit of weight to maintaining the same weight...how would the weigh ins…

well done molly :) Numbers for the week so far: OWLs - 74 NEWTs - 54 House Points - 240

Hello, and welcome to hufflepuff!

The week so far: OWLs - 74 NEWTs - 36 (someone offered me a chocolate finger and I took it without even thinking...and I had to comfort myself after having my dentist pretty much rip my jaw off my face. House Points - 120 Had a long difficult day but looking forward to getting into bed in a moment because I changed my…

Yes, that's how i'm doing it. :) My numbers for the week so far: OWLs - 58 NEWTs - 36 House Points - 120 Got the dentist tomorrow. Getting 2 teeth fixed for Christmas from my parents so with any luck I'll stop getting toothaches!

Yes, Molly - 16 NEWTs is correct :smile: My numbers for today are: OWLs - 32 (I stretch a lot!) - 8 of these were the same stretch on different limbs so do they count? If not I need to recalculate...probably to 28. NEWTs - 19 (and feeling proud!) House Points - 60 We're dangerously close to Christmas and I've just looked…

Thanks CarolinaGirl, i agree that stretching is beneficial; I used to get really awful cramps in my legs and feet but since exercising and stretching more I don't suffer half as much as I used to and I'm sure it's helping me not get shin splints too. I'm also able to touch the ground and impress people with my bendy-ness.…

By the way I'd like to draw your attention to this article which someone posted in one of the other parts of MFP - talks about why we might feel hungry even after eating. http://www.besthealthmag.ca/get-healthy/best-health-challenge/why-you-feel-hungry-even-when-youre-not

I don't use them because I don't like them. Doesn't feel like smoking to me but I know 3 people who do use them - one of them never even smoked so it's a puzzle to me why they bother with it!

Evening all, just checking in with my stats for the week: Having properly researched the points for NEWTs I can proudly say that I earned 9. OWLs have gone up to 30 House points 140 Now I believe I owe you all a new NEWT challenge to start on Sunday. I find the food challenges quite difficult to think up so apologies if…

Morning hufflepuffs. This week i stayed the same weight and I was busy and so, so tired. As a result of my busy tiredness I didn't get much exercise done. Also I wasn't logging my food so I may have got a big fat zero on the newt challenge only I did log yesterday and ended up with 383mg total sodium. Unsure what that…

once my mum got me a pack of underwear that was size 14-16 when I was an 8 at the time. I said politely that she appeared to have picked up the wrong size and do you know what she said? She said I'd grow into them!

Hello hello, Numbers for Sunday: OWLS: 0 NEWTS: 1 House Points: 120 ================ So for the OWL challenge I have done some research into strengthening exercises for the core muscles and I have selected 8 exercises to form a mini-workout. 1 OWL for each set completed ::: OR ::: 10 OWLs if you complete the full workout…
