10 Days In The Life Boat #45 - 3 Fat Chicks on a Diet Weight Loss Community

j-ann · 02-01-2013, 08:16 AM

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.

So what is your plan for this 10 day segment?

Grab an oar and join us doing our best to stay dry.

I ended the last leg dry!

My goals for this leg:
1. Work on the confidence in myself that I need to keep me believing I CAN do this.
2. Stay w/i my WW points EVERYDAY.
3. Take a HEALTHY snack with me every time I go out the door.

Okay, I need a new start!!

My goals for the next 10 days:
1) get to the gym at least 5 times
2) no senseless, mindless eating
3) eat sensibly when going out (and there are several events coming up).

Right now I can't worry too much about the scale going DOWN. Let's just not have it go UP, and get myself moving more.

Okay I am in...

1) I am going to do my fitness videos-any of them- at least 5 times.
2) I will stay on tracking with counting calories and fitness.
3) I will order a bike and helmet and I will put it together when it arrives.
4) I will write down how I am feeling at the end of each day and try to write one good thing about myself and my life.

I've logged in and tracked my calories for 30 days in a row! Only seldom dipped a toe in. Also needing to add more goals. Will be at least a month until I get my treadmill. Gotta get the doggies out for walks more often!

dgramie · 02-02-2013, 08:30 AM

I need to lower my calories back to 1200 where the dr wants them. Exercise more and eat at home....

j-ann · 02-02-2013, 09:36 AM

Met my goals yesterday. YAY! Rowing hard (or in my case shoveling) this morning.

Heather · 02-02-2013, 09:51 AM

Okay, yesterday was an epic bust. Binging and no gym. But I did eat sensibly out.

So, reset and try again.

dgramie · 02-03-2013, 08:03 AM

I fell face first into a plate of mexican food and chips. So back in the boat today and time to bring out the fluffy towels to dry us off with. Please pass me an oar. I plan to be rowing today.
Is anyone worried about snacking during the game today?

j-ann · 02-03-2013, 08:37 AM

Deb, Here's a towel. Nice and warm and fluffy. Your oar's waiting for you on your seat.

Stayed w/i my pts. yesterday but a couple of my choices were not the best so I'll say I got splashed a bit. Today won't be a problem for me. I hate football.

yourbffmegan · 02-03-2013, 01:30 PM

I set a personal Feb 1st-March 1st goal but I'd love to incorporate that into this

My 10 day goal: NO CHEATS AT ALL! & Go to the gym atleast 6 times.
(So far so good for the first 2 days)

dgramie · 02-04-2013, 07:11 AM

wow...i was wet all weekend!! Today Im dried off and got a meal plan for today.

j-ann · 02-04-2013, 07:36 AM

Dry! Happy, happy, happy.

Heather · 02-04-2013, 07:43 AM

I did much better this weekend.

Saturday I ate reasonably and got exercise -- both shoveling and the gym (70 min total)
Sunday I again ate reasonably and went to the gym (only 30 min, but hey, I'll take it)

More shoveling today!

I will not even try to stay on plan today. I am going out to dinner to a restaurant I've been dying to go to, and may never go to again. I'll try to not completely overdo it and will compensate by eating clean early in the day... and I'll get a little shoveling in... but I'm not going to try to count calories in my head...

Vortex_VVV · 02-04-2013, 10:10 AM

Sorry I'm late, but I'm in, and I brought fresh towels. (Internet is out at home, so I might be sporadic in reporting this leg.)

My goals for this segment are:

1. Stay within my DAILY WW points (use no weekly points) on two days this week.
2. Try to get pedometer steps to 6000 each day.
3. Plan lunch every day.
