This one. Weight loss is something that takes time and You wont see it tomorrow or even next week. It takes time to see the results and they are amazing. I have even used my interpretation to make my own mantra I tell myself when I want to eat something really fattening. I ask myself if it will be worth it in 20 minutes. If I eat this I won't care that I ate it because I will no longer taste it. I will feel guilty but either way in 20 minutes it will be the same either way so I avoid the guilt and pass.

Your quote is my quote. I love it! "Three months from now you'll thank yourself"

I love all of these quotes and everyone's contribution! I have SO MANY quotes but this one has stayed the closest to me because it applies to my professional and fitness life:

"You won't get much done if you only Grind on the days you feel Good"

Being human, we all have gone that extra mile to come up with excuses for not going to gym, not eating clean, or saying we'll do it tomorrow, etc. This has been a constant reminder for me to stay on my Grind every.damn.day - whether I'm feeling tired, having a bad day, (or carb depleted lol).

I forget where I saw it or who it was quoted by but there you go. Stay Fit, you beautiful people!

Fall down seven times, get up eight.

No matter how many times I fail, I need to just get myself up, dust myself off, and carry on.

My favorite quote is "I just need to get off my *kitten* and do it."
Whether it's exercising, preparing a healthy meal or anything else, it applies.

Bwahahaha, auto correct changed a** to kitten. I'd have have thought it would at have changed to donkey.

A few quotes helped and speifically a few by Confusius

Our greatest glory is not in never falling, but in rising every time we fall.

"There is no pleasure which men of every age and sect have more generally agreed to mention with contempt than the gratifications of the palate, an entertainment so far removed from intellectual happiness that scarcely the most shameless of the sensual herd have dared to defend it: yet even to this, the lowest of our delights, to this, though neither quick nor lasting, is health with all its activity and sprightliness daily sacrificed; and for this are half the miseries endured which urge impatience to call on death."
-Samuel Johnson

There's only one quote that everyone should cut out of a magazine or draw on their dream board or whatever. It's one simple quote with three words, three syllables. It doesn't get more succinct than this quote.

"Just do it!"

That's it. Forget all the other quotes that talk about how skinny feels or how proud you're gonna look, yadda yadda yadda. If someone asks you to motivate them just say, "Just do it".

"Just do it!"

That best product Nike ever produced is a slogan and it's perfection.

You want to lose weight but don't know how or where to start? Just do it!
You have hectic hours at work and home and can't fit the gym into your schedule? Bull$hit! Just do it!
Yo mamma cooked fried chicken and collards and fried okra and you don't want to hurt her feelings by saying you don't want to eat that unhealthy crap anymore? Just do it!

Take all that other crap off your bathroom mirror or refrigerator or pantry or wherever you have it posted and replace it with, Just Do It!!!

You can lock the thread now.

Never really had a quote helping me through, but a recent one from the UA commercials is great:
