    Changing that 2nd digit

    edited January 10 in Success Stories
    Doesn't it feel great when you look down at the scale and the 2nd digit in the readout is reduced by one? Granted 269.8 isn't much lower that 270, but just seeing that 7 go away for the first time in a long time is a real morale boost. Come on 5 !

      Absolutley true!! And I can not wait to see that one chage for me! Today I weighed in after 11 days of dieting and excercising and my last number changed from a 6 to a 0 and I was so excited! lol :laugh:

      Ready for it to change also. I am 3 pounds from seeing a 3 for the 2nd digit. Come on 3. LOL

      Yup, I call it "the next decade". Right now, I'm hovering close to 310, and I'm so excited to get into the last "decade" before 299!

      For me, from the 22_ to the 21_ was a big deal!

      Yes! I can't wait for that darn 9 to to turn to an 8. I'm hoping on Friday.:grumble:

      I 100% agree. Seeing the third number move is nice, but the second and first really give you a boost. :)

      This just happened to me! I hadn't been 1-*mumble* *mumble*-9 in such a long time, I was so happy when I saw it, I couldn't wipe the grin off my face!

      Fantastic feeling, like you said even if it's only .2 lbs it still makes you smile

      Ugh.. Yeah I haven't lost "weight" in months, but I have lost inches and fat. It is still an psychological boost to see numbers go down.

      Im 3 pounds away from both the 2nd AND 3rd digit changing... Can you say EXCITED?
    • Posts: 257 Member
      Yes!
    • Posts: 108
      Yes it is. That is what keeps me going, is the results. I truly appreciate one pound or even a half pound lost as I know it is part of a bigger picture.

      I'm lucky to get that 3rd digit to go down that I'm jumping up and down when the 2nd does!!!

      Two pounds from the number 4 and they sure is being STUBBORN.

      I call them decades too! And LOVE it when they change. My third digit is a six right now though and has been for awhile so I might not see the great decade change for a bit.

      Ha! I call them Weight Decades.

      I absolutely agree!! I was ELATED the first time I saw 159. I almost dieed then and there.
      But then I calmed down and started my workout :)
