There was improvement over the last leg and I was able to stay dry again yesterday!

My goals for this leg:

I'm going to try to:
1. Say NO to food in the car unless I bring it from home.
2. Stay within my WW points and....
3. Not use my extra points for unplanned eating.

Thanks for getting us launched again, Judy.

I ended the last leg strong. So, the plan for the next ten days:

1. Stick to daily points, no weeklies.
2. Keep pushing veggies.
3. Track water intake better--shooting for 100 oz.
4. Exercise: Do a Zombies, Run! mission 4 times during this leg (but not on Mon. or Tues.); do Weight Loss Yoga at least 2 times during the leg; kickboxing at least 3 times.
5. Any day that's above 40 degrees, take at least a short walk outside.

Didn't finish the last leg as strong as I had hoped, but it was an improvement.
This leg I will stay on plan with food and exercise.

I'm Jennifer--but use the online name of Jazzi Belle. it makes me feel young and active, lol
I "woke up" about 10 days ago to the horror of my all time high weight of 285 on a petite frame of 5'3 1/2 ".
I like the idea of little goals so the 10 day life boat sounds great to me! I've also been looking for a group to chat with here.

What I am going to do starting today is
1) Drink water! I sip at it all day, but need to start chugging it
2) stick to my PLAN of lowfat protein + veggies for dinners
3) try to walk 3 times / week

I really need to see the scale go down!!!!! I know I could post bigger goals, but I'm trying to pick modest ones that I may actually be able to accomplish.

Welcome Jennifer!
Here's an oar and a seat cushion. Pick a seat and start rowing. We're all about small goals here.

Thank you J-ann. Loving the cushion!
I'm making my food lists and going to do my week's shopping in a bit. I'm going to drive an extra 30+ minutes to go the fancier grocery store that has a decent salad bar in it. Big salad for dinner, woohoo!

Welcome, Jennifer! It's always good to have more arms rowing. I'm a little shorter than you

I stayed dry yesterday, though my exercise was nothing on my list… I spent 2 hours on a step stool attempting to replace some 48-inch recessed fluorescent tubes. Did not succeed, but did a lot of huffing & puffing and have muscle aches all over this morning… Anyway, somehow I did all that and managed to stay in the boat.

By the way, I think our destination this time is the big island of Hawaii. That cool with you all? I don't have a passport, but if I see one more snowflake I'm going to scream.

Hawaii sounds good to me.

I stayed dry again yesterday. Even got in all my water!

Hawaii sounds great--as long as I can wear one of those big gauzy wraps. I am NOT ready for bathing suits!

I stayed in the boat on my first day out. yay!
I didn't mean to be overly conscious of calories but discovered a calorie counting app from Livestrong that I could download to my new tablet. I was pleasantly surprised to find all the brands of foods I ate in their database, so ended up counting calories, water & the little exercise that I did.

Welcome Jennifer!
Hawaii sounds perfect. I'll be along a little later. I am swimming in shark infested waters!

Dry again yesterday. Feeling great!

Dry yesterday. Completed a Zombies, Run! mission. So that leaves 3 missions, 2 yoga sessions, and 3 kickboxing sessions.

Before we get to Hawaii, I think we'd better row back to pick up Ubee. We're coming for you!

Jennifer, you can wear anything you want on vacation

I can't see land yet, but the view is still fine.

Thanks for coming back to get me!
Today is a new day and I have plans to succeed.

I fell out of the boat late yesterday afternoon.
but got back in for dinner and have stayed dry today!

Today is my late day at work, I don't get home until after 8pm, been here since about 9:30am!

Hope everyone is having a lovely day in the boat this Monday!
