Welcome to the newest segment of 10 Days In The Life Boat.
This is not a "challenge" but a place for accountability to ourselves and support from our fellow rowers. So, what is your plan for this 10 day segment?

Grab an oar and join us doing our best to not fall out of the boat and and get wet. We need to meet our goals to stay dry.

I'm back in the boat and my goal for the next 10 days is to really stick to my WW plan and check in here daily.

Fell out of the boat yesterday with a huge splash. Wrapped in a warm fluffy towel and determined to row really strongly today.

Thank you for the shiny thread J-ann, and way to go getting back on track. I didn't know where to post this, and thought this was the best place, but I am fighting against (self) sabotage, I'm going out to Target tonight for cat food, I'm disappointed by my .8 lb. weight gain (just under a pound, but I've been working so hard ) and I just feel like buying a bag of Boom Chicka Pop and going crazy, but I KNOW THAT WON'T MAKE ME FEEL BETTER! Sorry for the font yelling, but it is true, so why, why do I want to do it. I am hoping getting it out will make it better, it's only 8:19 and I've eaten more than my calories allow (I'm only supposed to have 1470 and my calories for the day were 1731. No exercise yet, though I logged it *sighs*, just a bad day, sorry venting.
Even if I have another sandwich or banana or apple, whatever saying no to junk food, Chobani flips (love these, but too many calories for today), etc. hopefully I'll be down tomorrow?

"I am fighting against (self) sabotage" ..... So am I - every day. I've reached the point where I try not to carry credit cards or extra cash. It does help when I force myself to remember.

Today I met my goals and even preplanned tomorrows meals as well as packing lunch and fruit as I'll be outdoors most of the day.

Rowing hard an glued to my seat!

You're doing great J-ann, and thank you so much for your post, I fought it and won, I didn't binge eat yesterday. I didn't end up going out yesterday either, but there are plenty of foods I could have overeaten at home, but while I was well over my calories, I didn't make it worse, thank goodness. Posting about it really helped, seeing my before and during pictures helped too, and sharing them helped.

Good job Candidcamster!!! We need to say "No. I am NOT hungry" more often.

I'm going to end my day dry. I'm still below my WW points for the day.

[j-ann]

I got splashed yesterday. It could have been a lot worse.

[Candidcamster]

Hi J-Ann, hey everyone, I've been doing a lot better lately since I decided to fight instead of giving in to my binging. I haven't exercised yet today, but I plan to before bed (I'll post again as to whether I did or not) and my calories as my night isn't over yet . Wishing us a dry week <3!

ETA - 1490 calories today of my 1470 allowance + 1 mile of Leslie Sansone.

[j-ann]

Go for it Candidcamster!

I'm a bit damp but on the whole staying dry.
