    "Between you and every goal that you wish to achieve, there is a series of obstacles,
    and the bigger the goal, the bigger the obstacles. Your decision to be, have and do something out of the ordinary entails facing difficulties and challenges that are out of the ordinary as well.
    Sometimes your greatest asset is simply your ability to stay with it longer than anyone else."

    Whatever you say you are, you prove yourself right. So start staying that you are active, motivated, and strong. Because in the end you are what you think and say you are.

    Reclaim Power
    Only you can make this happen. Act as if your life depends on meeting your weekly goals. It feels great to be in control!

    Persist
    You can't fail unless you quit. Feeling frustrated? Make sure you are not under-eating, over-exercising, or expecting too much from the scale each week.

    Believe
    With the right mindset, you can overcome any excuse—from injuries to metabolism to medications. Focus on the things that are in your control.

    Look Ahead
    Clearly plan each day ahead and think about WHAT you will eat and WHEN you will eat your meals and snacks.

    Give Up Guilt
    Nothing's worse than working hard on your program and having a treat followed by guilt. Take responsibility for your choices and don't play the guilt game.
