Hey guys, as no-one has suggested any challenges for the interhouse competition I am going to go ahead and make some up for all of us. Somrthing fiendish... Matchamatcha- will be good to have you around! Your bootcamp sounds great, I wish there was something similar near here! Datenshi-sounds like a good plan allowing…

June week two results are out- although we were second in the House Cup and third in the Quidditch match, our numbers were much better than last week so well done guys! Keep it up!

Morning all! Have just realised that, because of the challenges, I went a whole week without chocolate last week! Whoop! I love how accountable this group makes me. Think I will do squats with weights for my lower body exercise this week. I used to do loads when I was boxing, but now do about 30 a week, if I'm lucky. 25 a…

Yeah it's very quiet in here- means everybody must be outside, hopefully burning some calories though, so it's a good thing! Not very nice here today, hot and thundery, got in a swim this morning though so made the most of it. Last night I babysat for my friends 10-month old over night- terrifying! Don't know how all you…

Morning guys! Challenges for this week are: Food: Get your eight cups of water in, with an extra cup for every 30 mins of exercise you do. One OWL for every day you get all your water in, Exercise: Choose 1 exercise a day that focuses on your lower body (squats, lunges, leg raises, calf raises, etc) and do 25. Each day you…

Man i hate push-ups. Did 10 regular ones today and fifteen girlie though, getting better! I feel like my housemate is trying to sabotage me at the moment. She knows that I want the next three weeks or so to be real pushes on the diet front, as after that I'm on holiday and will definitely slip up. But so far this week…

Great idea! A bit more competition for Ravenclaws to win!!!

Hi Ravenclaws! The Bezoars- sorry to see you go, come back any time! Azsuzi, am sending positive thoughs your (and your Dads) way. Hope you get some good news soon. As you may have seen in the Great Hall, in July, challenges are changing. Instead of us having our own in-house challenges, we will be competing against the…

AZSUZI IF YOU'RE READING THIS, NO CANDY!! Just a bit of motivation for you there.... Right, Ravenclaws, thank you for all your weigh-ins this week!

Happy Monday morning, let's make this a great week! Results are posted in the Great Hall for last week. We were THIRD in the Quidditch Cup (% weight lost) and are currently SECOND in the House Cup (exercise minutes). Let's try and improve on this next week Ravenclaws! We weren't far off in the Quidditch, so hopefully we'll…

Gah, ok Datenshi, I'm off to drink water! Haha! Guys, I think I'm going insane. I just spoke to my mum on skype, and was explaining I'm tired because I got up at 4am to go and run in a race. She said, confused 'oh I thought your race was last week?'. It was. I did this nonsense two sunday's in a row! Six months ago I'd…

Good morning Ravenclaws! Challenges for this week: Food challenge: A great, personalised one from momofJandA this week: choose one change to make in your nutrition (something to leave out, something to add, something to make better. Could be giving up diet soda (mine), could be eating a more nutritious breakfast, could be…

Hi all, it's already Friday here! Love Friday morning, knowing tomorrow I can have a lie-in, bliss! Although have just signed up for another race on Sunday- second time in two weeks I 'm getting up at 4.30am to go running, I think I'm mental... @rosesqueletti, we'll miss you! Good luck and come back when you can!…

I'm excited for all the people who are starting it this week! For all those who've added me, I am going to bug you about making sure you get your days in! Be prepared! Haha

Hi Ravenclaws. feeling pretty smug- did my fastest ever 5k last night. Whoop! Ate cookies to celebrate this though, oops. CivicSista- you can weigh-in on any day Friday to Monday, just as long as it's the same day every week. momofJandA- I am considering calorie zigzagging as well, let us know how it goes! Datenshi- good…

I started it in February. I repeated some weeks, had some weeks off for holidays and laziness and so on, but I finished it in April. In May I did my first 5k race. On Sunday, I did my first 10k! I am now working on improving my speed before I try and add any more distance. I've just done 5k in 31 minutes. (literally, still…

Ravenclaws! Hope the start of the week is going well, I am mainly tired tiday, after going to bed at 9pm, getting up at 11 to watch the football, then going back to bed at 2.30 am, before my normal wake-up at 6am. Football in a different timezone is tricky! Today I am going to have dinner with a great friend who is going…

Treats, such as a pedicure or massage, or, every 15 pounds lost, shopping for new clothes.

Good morning Ravenclaws! A new week, a new start! I am going to be better at logging and posting this week, that's my goal to myself. And I must remember to stretch! Good news is I ran my first 10k yesterday. Actually it was 10.5k, which is harsh, adding on 500m seems like a timy amount, it felt like loads!! Anyway, it was…

In house news (I promise to be more hot on this from now on!!) the spreadsheet is ready for your input this weekend. This week, please put in your June target as well as the normal weight, house points and OWLs. If you could also all double check your June starting weight- I copied them across but might have changed a…

Hey guys! Slept for about eight hours, feel a little more human now. I also went for a run, first exercise I've managed in over a week so it was tough, but felt good to finish it! Really odd to be back in Thailand though, after a whistlestop tour of home for a few days, with a full days' flying each end has really thrown…
-
Hey ravenclaws! Super quick just to say hi and hope you're all ok! I've had a horrific week- grandparent in hospital, I had to fly home to see them, then fly back because it's exam period and I wasn't allowed anymore time off work. I will scroll through the posts later to catch up and get us all back on track with…

Datenshi, your job sounds pretty cool, do you enjoy it? Hmm, something good which has happened! I have found in the last two weeks, lots of people have suddenly noticed I've lost weight. Mainly friends, which is awesome, but it's their job to be nice to me. But the other day, one of my bosses, who is an absolute d&*k,…

Exercise: Work on those abs! However you want to do it, but one OWL for every day you work on them. Food: one OWL for each day you substitute at least one healthier fruit/veggie option for something less healthy you normally would have grabbed or used in a dish. Spirit: Post! Also- this week is an extra week (we've already…

Hi guys, tuesday here- I am bored out of my mind... It's exam week in school, so I have to be here for 9 hours but have no classes to teach. Obviously I've got plenty of planning, marking, report writing etc to do, but it's so dull! I'm a teacher because I enjoy teaching, not paperwork!!! HannahWrecksYa- welcome to…
-
So, just done my 10 minutes solutions DVD abs section, and oooh it hurts! My abs hurt! Bad food choices today though so no food OWL for me. Gah! Also no weight loss, although I wasn't really expecting any after 3.5lb last week, thought my body would have even it out and it has! Oh wells. Happy new week Ravenclaws!

Morning all! Grey weather here, I'm bummed because I planned to sit by the pool all day as its the last day of a 4 day weekend (I love public holidays!!). Desertlyzard, you should have a message from me, welcome to Ravenclaw! MomofJandA- I used to use a pedometer- was a great incentive to walk more because you get obsessed…
