Welcome to the newest segment of 10 days in the lifeboat.

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.

My 10 day goals:

Stay OP
No pretzels - none, zip, nil, not a single one.

get more exercise!! drink more water!! and eat according to plan!

WHHOO HOOO - here we go
Drink water
TRACK everyday! - I've been slacking on this!

hello! is it too late to grab an oar?

Beginning May 14, for 10 days, I will begin my juice cleanse. I really need it because I have been having cravings and giving in to those cravings (peanut butter cups, kit kats, jelly beans, more peanut butter than I should have and all kinds of junk). So, I need to cleanse my body AGAIN and get rid of all of those toxins and crap in the crap that I ate. And I also plan to say on track with my exercise. I did good for 2 weeks and then I started slacking.

Vermontchick ...... not at all. Have a seat and start rowing.

all right then, well i do not know how many days into this challenge we are, but my goal this week will be small. i am going to stop having any carb based snack, full stop. not even going to wean myself off of them. i think this is why my blood sugar goes out of wack. all snacks will be either protein based, or fresh fruits/veggies.

my long term (three month) goal is to see the doctor at the beginning of august/end of july and have my A1C and all my testing done.

Day 1 is over. I'm dry. POP and no pretzels. I was pushing the limits of OP last week using pretzels as a crutch.

Hoping for a beautiful, dry day today.

Yesterday was dry! Looking forward to another one

friday was dry, wet day sat but I did get in lots of exercise in the yard and garden.

Day 2 dry!

I've got a deadline on some cross stitch so I'm keeping my hands clean and busy.

I need a towel and a life jacket please!! I will be pop today!!

Towel, life preserver, life jacket, lifeboat - whatever is available - I need it please.

Holy mackerel!

I'd forgotten to transfer the life ring and buoys from the last trip but I've found a new set on board so the life ring and 2 buoys (3 days dry so far for me on this segment) are attached to the stern. If you need them just grab on and we'll tow you in.
