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 !

    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!

    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!

    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.

    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 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.

    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 :)
