  • The old thread had over 500 posts, so this is my attempt at continuing the love.....

    Old thread is here http://www.3fatchicks.com/forum/weig...you-today.html
  • Now that Labor Day is over and school and work has begun, let's be 10/10 every day!!! Cheats Optional: Halloween, Thanksgiving and Christmas
  • ^^I agree!
    I'm a 10/10 today.....last night had salty pub food and was up half a pound on the scale this morning for my efforts I will flush it out today. Skipped my usual Coke Life this morning with brekkie and opted for unsweetened tea with a small amount of Stevia.

    My hula hoop arrived yesterday, so after dinner I will be putting it together and giving it a test run, so 10/10 for exercise as well.
  • 9/10. I have been good with staying on plan for eating for the most part (went a little over on Saturday) but I really need to get my exercise in check. This last week has been busy and stressful. I need to really get focused and dig deep!

    PrairieQueen- That is exciting about your hula hoop, I am anxious to hear your thoughts on it! Hope it's great!
  • Well I'm committed today, 10/10. It's been a little rough lately. I've not been feeling well lately and my husband is trying for a new job and it would be perfect and such a blessing. I've been stressed about it though. He has been working 3rd shift for so many years and this job he is trying for is a regular 9 - 5 and it would be perfect.

    Anyway even through the stress and everything I'm still holding at 272 lbs. So that is a plus.
  • Raining Hula hoop is till in box but I had a boatload of laundry to do last night (that counts as exercise right ) But I must get it put together tonight!

    tongirl02 Hang in there, you will get there. I was stuck for almost a month even though I thought I was doing everything "right." Then all of a sudden the weight started coming off very predictably. You'll become very "in tune" with your body and what works for you.

    I am a 10/10 today. Back to Monday's weight this morn and ready to rock the day! I have a lot of energy Have a great day all......and remember, tomorrow is FRIDAY
  • There was a commercial when I was a kid (probably for a radio station) that said, "1010 WINS!!"

    That's our motto today Everybody! 10/10 Wins!!!
  • 8/10 today! Pretty good for me - seems like my recent bout with anxiety is passing over - I feel pretty good this morning. Went to the gym yesterday and gonna go again today. I find I am not pushing myself as much as I could, I'm being too safe and not really challenging my body. It ok, for now something is better than nothing. Am at a new gym and am on free trial right now but when I sign up officially next week will get free consult with trainer so I'll get some advice from there.

    Also been doing some belated (very belated lol) spring cleaning and totally cleaning out all my closets and getting rid of a lot of "stuff". It will feel so good to get rid of the clutter, it gives me a mental boost too - cluttered house, cluttered mind.
  • 10/10 for me today. Even though I got up late today and didn't have time to make a proper breakfast, I will just drink extra water and herb tea to hold me over until lunch. Scale continues to move in the right direction! There is no greater motivator than success!

    My daughter will be "home" tonight!! Excited to see her! Tomorrow starts a 3 day family weekend with hubby daughter, son, daughter in law, and grandbabies! I will have a few meal chllenges, but I can do this!!
  • Okay, newbie question: What is a 10/10 or 8/10?
  • LisaGA- It represents your commitment level for the day to stay motivated to stick with your plan on a scale of 0-10. So, 8/10, for example, means you're committed an 8 out of 10.

    I am 10/10 today. Seeing a drop on the scale the last couple days is just what I needed to get super focused again!

    Hope everyone has a good day today!
  • Got it!! Did the stairs of the office high rise at lunch, so I will say that I'm a 10/10 today. And, I do have to say that just saying that I'm a 10 feels pretty good!
  • PrairieQueen, thanks for starting the new thread! I can't wait to hear about the hula-hooping!

    LisaGA, welcome, and yay that you are a 10/10!

    KateB, congrats on a long weekend! I hope you have a great time with your daughter!

    Aml, I'm so glad to hear your anxiety is under better control!

    Tongirl, oh I hope your DH gets the job! When will he know?

    Inkrid, I like your positive motto!

    Raining, good job staying on plan! I need to refocus too. Sometimes life gets in the way!

    Today, I am committed 10/10, even though I'm not "feeling" motivated. It's a decision thing.
  • Not sure when he will find out. He has done 2 of a possible 6 interviews for it. My fingers are crossed.

    Leaving for Florida vacation tomorrow. So excited. Still stuck at 272 lbs though.
  • Sending Good Luck to your DH, tongirl02!!

    Yesterday I thought was going to be 10/10 but turned out to be 8/10 because assorted foods (and non-foods) were at the HS's Parent Open House last night!!

    Today, though, I don't have to go anywhere to be tempted! 10/10!!
