Hey guys, I've come by to deliver some sad news. I need to take a break from Ravenclaw for a while. Life has become crazy with studying and work and life in general, and I need to refocus on my goals. This is not goodbye forever, by any means. I really hope to come back when things become a little more stable and give my…

Hey all! Long time no see! Doing a quick check-in tonight at 285.0 which is up a bit and probably a lot of water weight from a sodium-filled weekend. I'm gonna switch up my weigh-ins to see if I more luck with fluctuations. Added 40 housepoints with 2 OWLs this week. I'm starting a new workout schedule in the early…

Hello All! It's been WWAAYY too long since I've hung out in the common room with all of you awesome people. I'm hoping to change that. Today was the first day of logging ALL of my food in a while and pre-logging most of my week. Bron and I are trying to better support each other in making this change as we've both been…

Hello all! Another quick check in this week at 281.2 which is down a few. Yay! And with 4 days until my exam, I'll be hitting the books. I will be SO glad when this is over. Good luck to all of you still going strong!

Another quick check-in for me at 284.6. Up a little bit which I'm sure is because of lazy choices and busyness at work and home. Nothing else to add, I'm afraid. Anyway, keep it up guys! You're doing great!

Hey everybody! Doing another quick check-in at 284.0. Down one holiday pound for 2012 with plenty of room to keep going! I'm going to get myself back into logging and doing more with you all here at Hogwarts. And after Jan. 20th I will have even less reasons not to be involved since I'll be taking my last part of my CPA…

Checking in again late on Monday at 278.6, which is up a bit but after my first Christmas gathering it's not too bad. I also have 20 house points to add but nothing else. Still crazy busy but trying to keep some structure wherever I can fit it in. Happy holiday season to everyone! And good luck with making good choices…

Good evening all!! Another quick check in for me before bed. This time with a lower number at 276.0. That's right folks, its the low est I've been in many years! I haven't been up to much though and I have no house points or OWLs to contribute. I'll keep trying to fit some in between work, study, and sleep. good luck to…

Hello all! Sorry for the late check-in; just heading to bed and remembered 'Oh crap! I forgot to check-in with my Ravenclaws!' So here I am at 279.2 and nothing else unfortunately. Still crazy busy, that's for sure. If I could burn calories while thinking and typing, I'd be a size 2 by now!

Another quick check in at 279.8, I'm sure due to the holidays and being super busy before and after. I did get 60 minutes of exercising in which earned me 2 OWLs along the way. Still chugging along, one day at a time.

Checking in at 276.4 tonight. A total fluke I think but I'll take it! Still going full speed at work and now the holidays so we'll see how well I keep it up. I'm determined too, but even the best of intentions can go awry.

Checking in tonight at 279.6 and 90 house points. Crazy week and still busy! But that's life : )

Quick check-in before work at 279.8. Lack of exercise and not enough water are the culprits I think. I earned 4 OWLs for veggies and 1 OWL for exercise, and added 30 house points toward being victorious against the other houses. Hope everyone has an awesome Monday and rest of the week!

Good evening! Doing a quick check-in at 277.2 and adding 86 house points to the mix. I earned 2 OWLs and I've still got a busy week ahead. Great job everyone! Enjoy the fall weather as much as you can :D

Hello Fellow Ravenclaws!! Checking in this evening at 278.0, down a couple from last week (yay!) I also got 1 OWL for parking in the back when I went to the grocery store and earned 75 House Points :D Little steps at a time and things keep getting better. I've got another busy week ahead but I'm going to keep focused and…

Checking in real fast at 281.8. I know it's up but it could have been worse after a weekend of fun Fall food. I did get in a wonderful 30 min walk in the crisp morning Fall air :D

Good very early morning Ravenclaws! Doing a quick check in before work. I'm up a bit this week to 280.0 but I'm feeling MUCH better about my working out. I had a lot of salty meals this weekend and combined with my lackluster water, it's probably a bit of water weight. I earned 3 OWLs for exercise and added 155 house…

Almost forgot to check in today but I made it just before bed! Checking in at 278.2 which is down a bit from last week :D I'm also adding 2 OWLs for exercise, 3 OWLs for food, and 50 house points toward a Ravenclaw victory! I'm slowly but surely getting back to better exercising and fitting in all the studying I need for…

Good Evening Ravenclaws! First night of my routine has gone smashingly! Made a nice dinner and got some exercise in and heading to bed early to beat this cold! Now to keep it up for the rest of the week...month...year...and we'll get there. For those looking for some extra protein, I recommend nuts. They're a boost of…

Hello again! I'm weighing in at 280.0 today and I'm not sure whether that's up or down or sideways but it is what it is. I'm feeling a bit under the weather and after a crazy week at work I'm not that surprised I'm still stuck where I am. I did get some great news, though: I passed the last section of my cpa exam!! So only…

Hello Ravenclaws! Not a good weigh-in. Up quite a bit to 281.6, the culprit - birthday dinner and nowhere near enough water. The dinner was sushi so it really wasn't all bad but I'm pretty sure I'm holding on to a bit of water weight because of sodium and just not drinking enough while I've been out. I did earn 1 OWL for…

Hello Fellow Ravenclaws! Checking in this week at 278.0 which is down 1.8 from last week :D I also tracked my OWLs for the first time in a while and I'm adding 3 OWLs for Exercise and 6 OWLs for Water. I'm also adding 35 house points toward our inter-house victory! I know it's not much but it's something and it's made me…

I'm gonna shoot for 274.0. Slow and steady :D

Good Evening Ravenclaws! Don't you just hate it when all you want to do is one thing but it seems like there's always 100 things that NEED done before you can actually do what you want? That's how's it's been for me lately. It's not an excuse; it's just how I've been feeling. Anyway....weighing in at 279.8 which is up a…

Hello Fellow Ravenclaws! Checking in today at 279.0 which is down but I'm not sure how much. I've taken another part of my CPA exam so hopefully I'll be hanging out here a little more than lately. I've still got one more part that I'll be starting to study for soon, but my brain needs a little break first. I'm…

Little late on checking in since I've had my nose in my books. Up a bit to 181.8 but I'm not surprised. Hopefully after this week I can get back into it. Great job to you all, though! Love seeing the Ravenclaw spirit still alive :D

Hello Fellow Ravenclaws! Checking in really quickly today at 279.6, down 2.2! I hope everyone else is having lots of luck! I've been busy studying in true Ravenclaw style, but hopefully I'll have some more time by the end of the month. Good luck to everyone!! "Or yet in wise old Ravenclaw, If you've a steady mind, Where…

Hello again Ravenclaws! I haven't had the chance to be as active here as I'd like but that's life, huh? I did want to check in today at 281.8 which is down a couple from last time; yay for me :D I also did great on my water this week, earning 6 house points this week. My exercise hasn't been as great though, but hopefully…

Hello Fellow Ravenclaws!! I'm weighing in today at 283.4, which is down 0.2 since DH.2 but still up a bit from my lowest (280.2). It's the end of vacation week and I'm determined to get back to exercising! I know you're supposed to aim for 8 cups of water everyday but I usually drink on average about 12 cups. I know that…

Greetings Fellow Ravenclaws! This is great! I'm totally in for keeping this going and checking in every week. I'm on vacation right now so I'm going to use my last weight as my starting weight and go from there. I'll keep my mind open for some challenge ideas and maybe stop by to post some HP trivia (even though we all…
