    "One bad meal won't make you fat. Just like one good meal won't make you thin."

    That quote really helped me change my mindset concerning food when I was trying to get a handle with my eating habits.

    "We are what we repeatedly do. Excellence, then, is not an act, but a habit." Aristotle

    That applies to everything in life, I believe.

    Last one, I promise!

    I chant this through my workout when I'm having to push hard to get it done:

    I must, I must, I must decrease my butt!

    My favorite is from one of my FL buds: "Don't get motivated - get disciplined."

    Hey, that's me! :laugh:

    The other one I'm currently programming into my children -

    "Excuses are easy, but get you nothing. Work is hard, but gets you results."

    I'm honestly not sure if I plagiarized this, or made it up.

    I'm going to update this to -

    "Excuses are easy, but get you nothing. Work is hard, but gets you everything."

    I think it's punchier.

    Here are some of my favorite quotes that have helped me in my weight loss journey.


    “For with God nothing shall be impossible.” Luke 1:37

    "But they that wait upon the Lord shall renew their strength; they shall mount up with wings as eagles; they shall run, and not be weary; and they shall walk, and not faint." Isaiah 40:31

    "My body is the temple my Father gave to me."

    "Faith in every footstep."

    "[F]or the Lord seeth not as man seeth; for man looketh on the outward appearance, but the Lord looketh on the heart." 1 Samuel 16:7


    “And it pleaseth God that he hath given all these things unto man; for unto this end were they made to be used, with judgment, not to excess, neither by extortion.” Doctrine & Covenants 59:20

    "And all saints who remember to keep and do these sayings . . . shall find wisdom and great treasures of knowledge, even hidden treasures; [a]nd shall run and not be weary, and shall walk and not faint." Doctrine & Covenants 89:18-20

    “I will go before your face. I will be on your right hand and on your left . . . my Spirit shall be in your [heart], and mine angels round about you, to bear you up.” Doctrine & Covenants 84:88

    “And if men come unto me I will show unto them their weakness. I give unto men weakness that they may be humble; and my grace is sufficient for all men that humble themselves before me; for if they humble themselves before me, and have faith in me, then will I make weak things become strong unto them.” Ether 12:27

    "[If men] are faithful, and exercise faith in me, I will pour out my Spirit upon them." Doctrine & Covenants 44:2

    “For the brother of Jared said unto the mountain Zerin, remove—and it was removed. And if he had not had faith it would not have moved; wherefore thou workest after men have faith.” Ether 12:30

    "But behold, if ye will awake and . . . exercise a particle of faith, yea, even if ye can no more than desire to believe, let this desire work in you." Alma 32:17

    I like this. And at the point I was reading it, I was busy talking myself out of doing something for fear of what could go wrong. Now I'm trying to focus on what could go right, and hopefully I can talk myself back into giving it a go.

    Always look to where you want to go mate. Otherwise we will just continually hold itself back.

    I'm about to leave a steady job to pursue a personal training career.

    Feel the fear, do it anyway.

    Remembered another favorite:

    "It's a big *kitten* sandwich, and we're all gonna have to take a bite." - Lt. Lockhart (Full Metal Jacket)

    It often runs through my mind and makes me laugh, or at least grin, when I'm going through, or am about to begin, a particularly difficult undertaking. :smile:

    I live by two simple ones:
    1. Keep on keepin' on.
    2. I am in better shape today than when I started.
    (I pull out #2 during plateaus and use it as a lead-in to #1.)
