  • Hey all! Glad to see everyone is doing well with the challenges! For July, it's been decided that we will do challenges as Hogwarts as a whole, so basically, each house picks a challenge for one week, Slytherin has week 4. Any suggestions for challenges? This is a group effort after all! I will post the challenge for next…
  • I haven't been yet, but my friend was a body double for Rupert Grint for Order of the Phoenix and Half Blood Prince so technically I have had a studio tour, as I went then. I sat in Dumbledore's chair, it was epic! I am going to go now it's open with my friends in a couple of months, can't wait!
  • If you don't have a pedometer 10,000 steps = 1 hour walking 5,000 steps = 30 mins walking :)
  • YAY! Nice work peeps! Remember to log your calories / exercise minutes for house points here please: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheet/ccc?key=0AgqIcbJ240bVdFZEMjlkZ3c5NkVxQ0Ffa003M2x5dnc#gid=0 Have a happy Monday! :)
  • Velvet Crunch are lovely, they do them in Poundland as well.
  • Yep, Snack -a-Jacks, the chocolate and coconut ones are lovely if you want a sweet treat and they are only 62 cals each. Or weight watchers caramel bars are nice as well.
  • Well done, you look fab! I want to lose a similar amount in the same time frame, so it's motivating to know it is possible!
  • Hey everyone, I am getting married on May 4th 2013. I've struggled with binge eating disorder for years and since my fiance proposed in February, the stress of knowing people will be looking at me in a wedding dress has actually made it spiral out of control and I actually gained 17 lbs (I was doing so well on MFP as…

  • Thanks! I also can become obsessed with checking the scale, I was on it again today, it's lower still but I only ever count my weigh in on Friday morning. I was thinking about the challenge for week 3, let's go with this if everyone is happy with it: WEEK THREE: 17th - 23rd June 2012 OWLs - Up to 2 per day for each day you…
  • Sounds good, woo hoo! Friday is my weigh day, I dropped 3lbs this week, stoked!
  • DesertLyzard: I have been acting HoH and I am listed the spreadsheet, but as you have rightly pointed out, I've been MIA for a while because of work, but things have quietened down now, so I can be around more. We lost our HoH a while back and I offered to be deputy HoH whilst we found someone who commit full time, because…
  • Hey everyone! I have been so slammed with work, I've neglected my fellow Slytherins, apologies! Hope everyone is having a good week!
  • I am so sorry people, had a super busy week and have neglected you! Things have quietened down now at work so I promise to dedicate my time to my fellow serpents, I will try and message you all in the next few days to see how you're all doing! Much love! x
  • BUMP!
  • Everyone who wants in can join! Sorry I've been so slack, I've been super busy with work and other RL stuff. Until we found an actual HoH (I was only ever going to be deputy!) can we repeat April's challenges for May? http://www.myfitnesspal.com/blog/poorcopies/view/slytherin-weekly-challenge-s-may-2013-256285 I know it's…
  • Fair play, good luck on your journey! Welcome to Jamie & Hernandezcr87!
  • I really struggle when my work life gets busy, which sucks!
  • Happy weekend to you too! How is everyone doing anyway? It's all got quiet in here again, what can we do to get us all motivated (and talking!) again?
  • Don't forget to log your deets people!
  • I got in during the beta, how much fun is it? SLYTHERIN PRIDE! (Fellow Slytherins, join our house in the Hogwarts Challenge!)
  • I'm dreading the scale this week - it's been a really bad one! :*( However I've made my 10,000 steps & water almost every day, woo!
  • I can't believe it's Thursday already! Where has the week gone? I've been so slack with my exercise this week - next week I am going to pre-plan my weeks food menu and exercise and stick to it regimented! I have a wedding to attend in two weeks and want to drop some pounds before then!
  • Aww best of luck Troy and we look forward to your return! Hope you've all been doing well, I've been super super busy with work this week, my bosses have been over from head office and I've had board meetings galore!
  • How is everyone today? It's my day off work and it's been a very lazy day, I am about to get busy with some Wii zumba at home though to try and remedy that (and kick us into gear for the house points comp!) Here is a under 600 cals recipe, mustard chicken! 367 per serving, I usually have it with fresh veggies and half a…
  • How is everyone doing? I've been in London all day with work, so lots of running around for me and I've reached my highest stair climb rank on my fitbit, all those stairs to get on / off public transport!
  • Hey all! Hope you've had a good Easter week! I've been working the whole time, boo! Managed to lose 1 1/4 lbs though! As zzzzia kindly posted, week 2 has started! Try to burn 500 cals a day! I failed miserably at this yesterday, the rain was horrible and all I wanted to do when I finished work was curl up on the sofa and…
  • I love it! If you manually still add your exercise on MFP, it recalculates your calorie adjustment, as it will minus those calories from the adjustment. You just need to make a note of when you started / finished working out. I was really confused at first but once I figured it out, I'm running with it! It's definitely…
  • You don't have to keep up with the daily OWL / NEWT challenges if you don't want, they don't count towards the figures, just loss and exercise mins, so if you are doing your own thing exercise wise that's cool too! Anyway, if you want to leave it a month then thats cool, but do still chat and stay involved that way if you…
  • Hey all, My arms are also battered after the dips and all the Wii boxing I've been doing. I got a fitbit last week and it's SO good, I've already found myself taking the stairs at work more instead of the lift, to get my floors up. It sync's really well with MFP as well, score! Hope everyone is having a good day.
