Like a freshly smoked sausage.

I've always wanted to meet a human dictionary. Neat.

I drink water.

Oh thanks goodness! I was distraught that there were no pics for a second! This is huge, Lauren! You don't need to be in a hurry, you just have to do it. I know that better than about anyone :) You're an inspiration!

OMG! Me too. I even sang it as I read it.

Just a reminder!

Your ticker picture is the best thing ever. I'm mad that I didn't think of it. I do all kinds of artsy things. Depends on my mood. I also love Zelda. I'm plugging my way through Skyward Sword right now. Reading is awesome, too! Oh, and definitely yoga. It's amazing.

Hi, Hufflepuffs! Unfortunately, I did not hear a thing back from Queeda. Today was the deadline so we can keep things moving. Here's what I would like to do. I still want two people to step up if at all possible. One to be the Head of House (acting until/if Queeda decides to come back in the future, but taking over the…

Any house you like! Just post in that Common Room!

Putting aside that my actual BFF is on MFP, my long distance bestie is Donna. My MFP big sis is Marcia. My homegirl is Mal (holla!), and my crazy brain twin is Mary. There's lots more people that I feel very close to, but these are the ones I'm fairly certain are close to 100% mutual.

Sodium! Track your sodium for the week (if you don't already) and try to stay under 2000mg or even 1500mg each day. Water. Drink AT LEAST 8 cups a day. Try a new (seasonal or otherwise) recipe and share it with your Housemates. Do whatever you need to come within 100 calories under or over your daily calorie goal. If you…

My view has DEFINITELY changed since this. Haha!

I can't speak for anyone but me, but I'm not on a diet. I eat what I want. I'm just trying not to eat ALL of it, anymore.

I'm on a mission to be ****ing awesome. Challenge accepted, Universe.

As long as it's pizza, I love it. Why do we need to choose?!

Technically, you're more than free to take yourself out as long as you say ahead of time. That being said, I hope you'll reconsider! In Gryffindor, I try encourage just participating in the parts that you're most comfortable with in the moment. If you're feeling off track, what better way to get ON track than to jump back…

I think I was unclear. If you prefer to add your OWLs and things a day at a time, that's totally fine! I'm only concerned that we don't get weeks confused by posting too early. If you're sure the stats you're posting are from the week you're posting on, that's all I'm worried about. Remember, as long as you end up with…

YES! Come join us! We're awesome!

If you guys as a House prefer to have Prefects assign the challenges, that would be even less the Head of House needs to do. Keep in mind that there is a thread up now to post ideas in that you can go to if you're ever stuck on what to do. There's nothing posted yet, but if we can post our new challenges each week, it will…

Headmistress interruption: IF YOU REPLY TO THIS THREAD, YOU'RE ACCEPTED! Please read the rules (http://www.myfitnesspal.com/topics/show/398364-inter-house-challenges-rules-info-s) before you ask questions! It's very likely they will be answered for you there.

You can set your goal however you'd like to, and seconds or minutes or times a day are all acceptable options. :)

Double check that you have the correct link, we switched to a new spreadsheet format: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheet/ccc?key=0AgqIcbJ240bVdFZEMjlkZ3c5NkVxQ0Ffa003M2x5dnc#gid=0

Of COURSE we'll have you back, crazy lady! I'd read back the last couple pages and catch yourself up on the changes we've made :)

Awesome! I changed your columns in the spreadsheet to have OWLs and NEWTs (O & N) together and SPEW separate. You can change it around if you want :)

Gryffindor does this too! We call it SPEW (just to be geeky)! It may help motivate some of the less talkative folks to open up and share :)

Gryffindor does this too, but we call it SPEW (just to be geeky). It might bring out some of the less talkative people and bring you guys together even more!

Are you using the most current link? https://docs.google.com/spreadsheet/ccc?key=0AgqIcbJ240bVdE1ISXJFWWpGSy02Q2p2SEJLcDdSTEE#gid=0 Some people have been adding their names already, so keep trying! I'll keep helping if you need it :)

I actually prefer that you share duties! I want every House to have a Head of House AND a Deputy Head of House. What I need as Headmistress is the results sent to me each week, but the in-House duties include making sure the students have OWL/NEWT challenges, naming Prefects and anything else you all decide you want to do…

APRIL WEEK 1 OWLs & NEWTs: **For OWLs: Set yourself a daily goal of how many of the exercise you're going to aim to do. You earn 5 OWLs for meeting/exceeding your goal, 3 OWLs if you make it halfway to your goal, and 1 OWL if you try to do some but don't make it at least halfway to your goal. **For NEWTs: How you earn…
