As I was about to scarf down a mini cupcake, "Hey, you can't out work a bad diet!" I needed to hear that - b/c he knows that I bust my azz in the gym, and he sees me reading labels, bypassing the unhealthy lunch that is brought in daily, yada ya....and at that time I was going through a weak moment and i needed that push to make a good / healthy conscious decision that is in line with my goals.

So please, share your good & inspirational quotes with us. You never know, it might help someone :)

    I look at my transplant scar. Someone died and checked "yes" on his driver's license. I cosmically owe him one. So I give his gift of life the best possible home.

    "you can't out work a bad diet" is a fave.
    "you can always try" is a fun answer to refocus :)

    Yesterday I posted that I was struggling and one of my MFP friends sent me the link below. I was floored by just how inspirational it was - I put it on when I was on the treadmill last night and had one of my best runs in a while. Highly recommend!

    "When everything feels like an uphill battle, just think of the view from the top."
    "Go ahead, tell me that I'm not good enough. Tell me I can't do it, because I will show you over and over again that I can!"
    "The scale can only give you a numerical reflection on your relationship with gravity. That's it. It cannot measure beauty, talent, purpose, possiblity, strength, or love."
