I'm too busy to breathe some days and have gotten really off track. So for this 10 days, I will eat no food from a vending machine, and NO Halloween candy.
And if I could exercise 2ce, I'll take it. (A far far cry from where I used to be, but a girl has to start somewhere).
I'm here....I'm here too!!!! Carol, did you remember to bring me a lifejacket just in case!!!!
For the next ten days, I will consume no just food or soda of any kind and I will not look for the closest park, but alittle further away so to get more steps in...............and the beat goes on!!!
Sorry gals, I have to do things in color. hahahaha
I got some exercise in yesterday too! Every bite recorded.
Question for you all - does the lifeboat help you or is it too much like the normal chat threads? Sometimes I feel like I post the same thing in both places.
Im here... had a busy weekend with the grandkids. Yesterday when they left I crashed on the couch for a much needed nap. My plan is to count and record each calorie. Stay away from diet soft drinks, they were slipping back in. Drink my full gallon of water each day. I am also going to try and walk for at least 20 min daily.
When we first started the 100 days, I found that having committed to posting either "I was POP today" or "I fell out of the boat" helped me stay focused. I like a place for accountability that is focused on that. Often in the other chat threads we chat about other things... which is fine... stress and life affect our ability to be POP, so we need to be able to talk about those things somewhere. But knowing that others are staying POP every day reminds me that I can and should do the same, and also keeps the thread very positive. So, yes, I think the thread has helped me.
In fact, I'm not sure I would have lost the last 10+ pounds without the lifeboat.
PS: So, thanks, Carol, for starting it! But are you feeling like it's just extra?
