Default 10 Days In The Life Boat #57

Welcome to the newest segment of 10 Days In The Life Boat.

Remember 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 stay dry.

Gee the 10 days go by quickly.

My goal for the next 10 days is:

1. Stay OP with eating
2. Exercise daily
3. Include one "minimum eating plan" day in the 10
4. Put my fork (or food) down between every bite and sip something.

Mostly dry yesterday, but this putting the fork down thing is HARD. It is also helpful.

Im here!
I had a slice of strawberry pie last night and have no idea how many calories were in it! It was truly amazing and so super sweet.
I will stay op and make sure the rest of my calories are in line.

Tie yourself to the boat, Buffy!

Pass that pie around, Deb.

Staying mostly dry here, though I didn't exercise yesterday. Let knee pain serve as an excuse, even though I know that usually a gentle walk will actually make it feel better... no excuses today!

I'm here too. Rowing away. Trying to stay dry. No commitments for me this leg. I'm just hanging on by a thread and will be fully on board when the new leg starts on Thursday.

Two days at the gym: Complete
Days under calories: 5 so far
Exercising at home on days not at the gym: Missed a couple days, and today will be one of them. Test tomorrow
Cook meals at home: Fell in the water one day, but controlled my portions (we ordered chicken) and maintained calories.
