I say these to myself all the time.

My motto in the gym is "Go hard or go home". It gets me to focus on why im really there and to give it all i got.

I try to be kind and stick with "My body is strong, giving, and capable." If I get whiny during a long run, though, I throw in a few "You're 32, this *kitten* ain't getting any easier to do. Run the best mile you can right now so that you can run the best mile you can at 64."

Food related: Cheat day is Saturday. No treats until Saturday.

Exercise related: You can do this. All you have to do is finish. No giving up.

A big phrase that helps me and I even got it tattooed after my first half marathon is....Dead last finish is greater than did not finish which greatly beats did not start.

It's completely shallow, but when I'm tempted to fall off the wagon I tell myself "You cheated on great clothes with food and booze for years...JCrew and Banana Republic missed you and are so glad to have you back...don't break their hearts". Works like a charm, for me.

This will be worth it when the Zombie Apocalypse comes!

ROFL....love it! I just read a captioned photo last night that read....'After watching The Walking Dead, I realize I need to lose weight so I won't be eaten when the Zombie Apocalypse comes"

Some Ex Military may recognise this, and although I was military, I was not one of those elite from which this springs. The quote is:

"Does your urges control you or you control your urges?"
"Who is in charge? I AM!"
these sort of thoughts help me on the way.

Focus, I tell myself..

And nothing feels as good as being fit!

I also think with each move or lift of the weights, is more food;-)

Even the word "impossible" has "I'm possible."

Not sure how well this fits in, but this is something I once heard Will Smith say during a kid's awards show, I think it's really inspirational - especially the first part:

“The keys to life are running and reading. When you're running, there's a little person that talks to you and says, "I'm tired. My lung's about to pop. I'm so hurt. There's no way I can possibly continue." You want to quit. If you learn how to defeat that person when you're running, you will how to not quit when things get hard in your life. For reading: there have been billions of people that have lived before all of us. There's no new problem you could have--with your parents, with school, with a bully. There's no new problem that someone hasn't already had and written about it in a book.”
