Mine is more of a mantra:

Your mind will give our before your body does. If you think you can't ( run a mile, lift the heavy weight etc), then you won't. If you know you can, you will.

And the second part for me is a saying I made up to repeat to myself during workouts:

You are FIERCE and can have whatever success you are willing to work for.

A year from now, you'll wish you had started today.

This is so true. I don't regret that it's taken me 1 year to lose 48lbs, I'm just sad I didn't start sooner!

It's supposed to be hard. If it wasn't hard everyone would do it.

This has gotten me through many difficult runs

"He who dances with invisible women does not know what he is up against."

I have used this saying for over 45 years and have applied it to many different scenerios in my life. For MFP it means to me that if you don't know what or how much your putting in your mouth you don't know what the consequences will be ,be it your weight or health problems.

If it doesn't challenge you, it doesn't change you.

For workouts : "I never regret when I do it, but I always regret it when I don't"

General: " stay positive, work hard, and make it happen"

Also: "don't eat less, eat better"

Only you can control what you weigh, eat, and how you feed your body. And that is amazing because all
the power to change lies with you and only you. Nobody can take that power from you. You decide. You are controlling this choice.

Giving up because of one bad day is like having a flat so you decide to slash your other three tires.

hmm, mine I actually read on MFP somewhere: "You can either feel the pain of discipline from eating less, or you can feel the pain of regret"

It is in my power!

I love this - so many times it has reminded me I can stop eating, not eat, walk right by, keep working out, etc. It causes me to stand up straight and square my shoulders: it is in my power!
