I dragged myself back aboard this morning. I need to re-center myself and re-commit to my WW program.
Goals for this leg.

1. Track, track, track every bite!
2. Remind myself daily that loving myself includes taking care of my body.
3. Think about why I am eating something BEFORE I put it in my mouth, SLOW DOWN, and remember to "not put food in my mouth when I already have food in my mouth".

I run in the pool. Chest height water, deep enough to take the weight off my knees and give lots of resistance, but shallow enough to dig my feet in. I use a talley clicker and a ten meter section of the pool so I know how far I've gone. It takes about a minute a lap so to get a mile in it takes 1600 meters or 80 minutes. I do that three days a week. I'm also trying to be very exact with my calorie tracking on my my fitness pal app.

I am ready to row!!

I commit to exercising 20 minutes everyday. It has been a long time since I was in the boat. I'm ready!

Welcome ladies. Grab an oar. Life vests are beneath the seats and we have a constant suppy of warm fluffy towels if you should fall in.

gonna start less complicated this week - couldn't keep it together last week:

gonna do one hour of exercise on wed and friday this week BEYOND walking the dog. something weight-lifty maybe.

Fell back i the drink yesterday. I hate it when that happens. It's my own fault!

Hello! I did fall into the water, but was saved ! I had 3 potato chips and broke out in hives. My body rejected them. Hah! So the universe stepped in and stopped me. I have no idea what caused the hives but I had to stop eating them and just drank water, ate a salad and had benedryl for dessert. Go me. Oh, i did get my 20 minutes if walking done.

HI Ladies

Judy - I am doing the same as you - stick to my WW plan - today was a complete tip the boat over and have to right it type day ... (err are we sharing the same side of the raft) hope everyone else stayed in - sorry if you had to climb back in .... Now i HAVE to stay in my Daily points for This Thurs Fri Sat Sun - my weigh in day is Monday so it like a nice reset day too.


Phae1963 welcome to the boat keep rowing and keep posting this is the right forum/support area for looking for support .. .and accountability


right still doing the stick to my WW program - daily points .. we now have this cool monthly chart - aim is to get at least one week blue for whole month this week!

I really don't want to get up to go to the pool. My Dad used to say that everything works out if you just get up and go to work. This is my job, so I'm going to go and not think about not going.

Hello my fellow losers hehe

I stayed in the boat today!

Hello, new oars-people!

I've been MIA from the thread, but rowing away, at least eating-wise. (I too follow WW, though I'm starting to wonder....)

I need to get back to exercising daily. The start of the school year has been busy and stressful. But Labor Day is past now, so it's time to get serious, organized, and moving.

ugh, why can't I do this! It's just adding one exercise, and not a hard one (it's chair exercises I have done before) - I am eating fine and walking the dog 2x a day, so why the heck can't I manage this! I am far from POP obviously and in the water and I think I may just tread here sulking until I figure out what the problem is....... maybe I don't think I can actually really loose weight and so why do more than the bare minimum ?, I have no idea....... hopefully I will be back in the boat soon

Lost, can you schedule some time early in the day when you could work your exercise in? If not early in the day, can you at least plan/schedule when you'll do your exercise?

Course, I'm one to talk: didn't get exercise in on Thursday. But still on track with eating. So here's to rowing harder and getting my exercise in tomorrow!
