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.

My only goal for this leg is to stay positive about losing weight to get healthier.

Hi J-Ann! I'd like to join in too, my goals are -
Stay under 2,000 calories per day during this session (preferably under 1,950 per day, but trying to be accommodating to my inner brat).
No binging! <3 reach out to OA and/or 3fc when I am weak.
No weighing in more than once a week (my next weigh in will be tomorrow on the 13th my which marks 26 months since the start of my weight loss journey at 301.6 lbs. HW was 350 lbs.)
Lastly relax, keep going, and believe in process it is working.
I wanted to share some of my favorite pictures, I hope it helps someone else going through a rough day.

I'm in.
Count carbs and stay between 30-80. That allows me a half of baked potato every now and then.
Limit cheese
Lift weighs daily 20-30 min
Gazelle 30 min daily
Minitramp 10 min.
Drink lots of water

Great news. 7 wks and 20 lbs

It's been a crazy last few weeks for me. No gain or real binges....but no loss either.

Goals:
-Keep carbs under 50 net each day.
-Walk at least 1.5 miles every other day.
-Hydrate! Aim for 100 oz. a day.

My goal is to adjust to my new healthy lifestyle and stop feeling fatigued from the carb reduction!
Let's go!
Good luck everybody!

Hello fellow life boat rowers - just 2 this time...

goals for this period - stick to my WW plan - keeping within points ... usually easy - hard part sometimes is making up the points needed

drink water - usually have to say this or I avoid it apart from at work - need to drink it outside of work too for best result

I've been in with the fishies. Had a rough two days. I'm in my seat this morning and planning to stay there!

[Karencat]

Dropped my oars - splashing about - worked late last night, yesterday wasn't the problem today was the icky one...
tired after working today didn't have time to cook tea tonight ended up having pizza for dinner ... 4 slices is 1 - 2 slices to many good thing about tonight it was on a thin base - so 3 slices was allowed thick base only 2 ...
whoops - fell in - bit of an over on my WW daily points - climbed straight back in as still have my weekly allowance

Was good and took my lunch to work - am learning reception at work - almost got it all under control just a couple of booking things that I need to do a bit
more often to be confident doing

Discovered bliss balls - made with 100 dried figs 300 pitted fresh dates 1/4 cup each of the following desiccated coconut rolled oats cocoa powder - blended together with a bit of water and then rolled in chaia seeds 2 table spoons - low fat chocolate-ish snack low on processed sugar just natural ones in it and low fat - got to be a win right - also fits in well with my WW plan as a serve is 1 ball at 1 point
