"IT WILL HURT.
It will take time.
It will require dedication.
It will require willpower.
You will need to make healthy decisions.
It Requires Sacrifice.
You will need to push your body to its max.
There Will Be Temptation.
But, I Promise you, when you reach your goal, it's
WORTH IT." -Unknown

    Will it require push-ups? I HATE those!

    Good post. Thanks.

    It doesn't have to hurt. In fact, it shouldn't hurt.

    And you don't have to push your body to the max. I'm not saying that's a bad thing or that it won't hasten weight loss, but it's not necessary.

    agreed, isn't there an old saying "no pain no gain", I am pretty certain this does not mean injury :wink:

    You must be younger than I. With 50 trips around the sun to my credit, I'm sore after long runs and sometimes it hurts.

    I am 50. I guess I don't consider "sore" and "hurt" as the same thing. But it's still not necessary to hurt., but it could be a good thing (within reason).

    The problem I have with quotes like these is they are just as likely to demotivate some as they are to motivate. Anything that motivates you is good for you. But some people don't want to hurt or get sore or push it to the max, but there are so many commericals and other media that make it seem like that is the only way. So people just give up.

    But it's not the only way. You can lose weight and get fit without pushing to the max or hurting. The quote should say "may" instead of "will". Then it would be true.

    Great saying - I need the motivation - today is the start of new life for me in my battle with weightloss. The inspiration is helpful.
