I can't remember the exact quote but something along the lines of, "If you got a flat tire, would you fix it or puncture the other 3 tires?"

This is a quote I recently found that is motivating me on my long journey ahead...

"I DON'T EAT JUNK FOOD BECAUSE IF I DON'T LOOK AFTER MY BODY, I'LL HAVE NO WHERE TO LIVE"

" I didn't gain the weight in a day, so don't expect to lose it over night". I keep repeating it to myself.

Two quotes come to mind, first being "Trust the process". This has helped me through times when I'm doing everything right and the scale doesn't budge. That dreaded plateau. This is where most ppl say eff it, and give up. I was on mine for 5 weeks, trusted the process and had a huge drop. The 2nd being " if u continue to eat like you did before you lost the weight, you'll be back where you started wishing you were where u are today". This has helped me put all this holiday binging in perspective. I've lost 38 pds so far and there's no way I wanna be back to 191. Hell no.

"You're only one millimeter off"

I love this quote by Tony Robbins. Basically it means that when nothing seems to work, you don't have to make radical changes to turn things around. You will usually only have to make very small adjustments. It's from a great motivational speech that you can check out on YouTube here.

Before Christmas I was only 1 pound away from goal. I put on a couple of pounds over the holidays but i'm not concerned because I know what I need to do to shed them. This quote, therefore, speaks to me in a big way. Thanks for posting it

My favorite quote in general, but is also helpful here has been, "Even if you fall on your face, you're still moving forward."

It just reminds me that I haven't failed unless I turn around and give up.

Well, it's a long quote, but it is basically my mantra not only when it comes to a healthy body, but also in other aspects of life. Here we go:

“Nothing in the world can take the place of persistence. Talent will not; nothing is more common than unsuccessful men with talent. Genius will not; unrewarded genius is almost a proverb. Education will not; the world is full of educated derelicts. Persistence and determination alone are omnipotent. The slogan “Press on” has solved and always will solve the problems of the human race.” - Calvin Coolidge

It's actually part of a song and while the song is about something else, the line hit me while I was working out. "Do you want it enough? Do you want it at all? Should you need it all? Do you want it or not?"
