Well, there was a couple of days that I did not fill in my journal --so ZERO Newts/Owls for those days, and week 2 I could not find the challenges, so ZERO Newts/Owls for that whole week 8 / EEK! Today starts anew--

well, I have been a bit off track the last couple of weeks, only got exercise in once this week 8 ( This week has to be better. Last weekend my oldest daughter became engaged, and is planning on a spring wedding Yayy!!!! That should give me some extra motivation to move my behind. I am going to try to back track and fill…

Welcome to the Hufflepuffs DJ, It is always exciting to have new members. This past week has been so crazy busy, (the story of all of our lives) -- both of my daughters were home, following my vacation--so my computer time has been limited, but will try to get caught up on the spreadsheet in the next couple of days. My…

EERRRGH!!! Back to work, I had a wonderful time off, but it is never long enough. And....back to work logging. I have gotten lazy these last few days, Happy Monday everyone!

Hello all, Welcome Christine, the Hufflepuff house is wonderful and I love being a part of it. Karen, thanks for posting the challenges. BeeJ, Great job on logging all those walking miles, game sounds fun! Lisa, congratulations on your run...and have a great vacation. I caught up on posts today, and will catch up on the…

Hi everyone, I had a wonderful vacation visiting with my daughter and hubby in Virginia...very pleasantly surprised when I stepped on the scale this morning, as my calories have been over a lot this past week. I was able to sneak in a few workouts though. Two more parties this weekend, OY!!!! The scales probably won't be…

We are leaving in about 1/2 hour for our vacation and I realized I had not logged on yet this morning. Hope everyone has a great week. I will not be able to post anything, but will be able to log on with my phone daily. I will be back on Thursday. Till then, stay cool and well hydrated. Ciao!

I looked in the Great Hall , haven't seen anything posted real recently....am I looking in the wrong spot???

I have been unable to find the Owl and Newt challenges for the week, so haven't been able to do them 8 ( --I haven't looked in the last couple of days, so it's a wash for this week I think. Next week I am on vacation, so will get back to O's and N's when I get back.

No, I didn't see any challenges listed in the Great Hall either 8 ( --will check back later tonight. Hope everyone has a great week! A short one for some of us that are lucky enough to get holidays off. Then I am on vacation next week. Flying out on Saturday to visit my daughter and her honey!

Molly, thanks, I know it must be difficult to do the Hufflepuff HOH things when you are so busy, and just wanted you to know we all appreciate the time and work you put into our house. Your hair cut is adorable, love your 'fringes"

Happy Sunday July 1st, wow where is the summer going? I was just wondering if the new challenges are going to be posted here in our house, or if I need to go to the Great Hall to find them (which I haven't done yet). I will do that later, I am off to run before it gets tooo hooot out there--whew, stay cool everyone.

I think you just may find your motivation tonight on your walk, sometimes motivation is a little shy and you may not get a glimpse of it until your 2nd or 3rd time out, but keep your eyes open 8 )

hi, my name is Sue, and I would like to join your group (well guess I just did). Just saw this today, so I am a couple of days late, but I will just do it through the whole month of July 8 ). My core definitely could use some strenthening. I look foward to the upcoming month.

Perfect!!! Thanks

Ok BMc--let's see if this works...I did not see a 'start quote' and '/close quote".. I know Molly said the Owls and Newts are going to be between the houses now....better step up my game. We Huffies want to win!!

wow!! where is everybody??? Nobody at all signed on in the last 24 hours...hope that means everyone is out enjoying the summer 8 )

Thank you BMC, love your profile pic. I will play around with that tonight. Have a great day!!

Well I didn't quite get the 3 1/2 pounds off from last weekends getaway, only worked out once though, and was 'in the red zone' of my food diary too many times as well. Next week, I am going to work harder and hopefully will get that final 2 lbs off. Persistence will get us there!!!

I couldn't remember what a Plank was so I looked it up and one of the demos had some comments following. The commenter wrote: Me: the plank is easy, no problem 30 seconds later-- Me: OMG!!! heehee, I thought it looked pretty easy too, but was forwarned by this comment. I guess it is easy, it is just difficult to maintain…

I did mostly better with the diet yesterday, although I had not taken my healthy afternoon snack and ended up grabbing a handful of nuts and dried berries --which would have been ok if I had stopped there, but chased it with a couple of handfuls of animal cookies. Yikes! Well I have my healthy snacks with me today 8 ),…

Hubby and I went away for the weekend. Had a great and relaxing time. Now I have to rein in the monster, I ate like a fiend yesterday. While a few days won't hurt in the long run, it is nice to know I have MFP to come back to and to help me stop a few days from turning into a few weeks or months. Have a great day everyone.…

Thanks Molly!!

I have never heard of such a work out with a hoop, sounds challenging, I will have to dust my hoop off too and give it a whirl. I don't think my hoop is a weighted one, but still would be fun to try something new. I don't think I have used my hoop since I got married 34 months ago.

Wow, it really cooled off last night. Our furnace came on. Hope it stays cool for my run after work. Have a great Wednesday all. Have great fun Karen ,and lot's of well earned R&R.

Molly, sounds heavenly, glad you are having a great time (and that you can log in and keep your streak going--I think you have the longest streak) . My streak of 52 is the longest for me I believe. I have posted my weight and house points on the spreadsheet already, here are my owls and newts Owls: 29 Newts: 11 I made a…
