in Motivation and Support
Exercise to be fit, not skinny. Eat to nourish your body. And always ignore the haters, doubters and unhealthy examples that were once feeding you. You are worth more than you realize.

    Bump. I definitely want to come back to this thread when I'm feeling weak and severely tempted.

    This is kind of a funny one but I saw it somewhere "I run so I can eat!"

    "your mind will quit 1,000 times before your body does" .....very true, it's amazing how much you can push yourself when you know the difference of your brain saying "too much" and your body saying it, don't listen to the brain hahaha

    "If you think you can or you think you can't...you're right!"

    ^I love this one. It's from Henry Ford. I also like this one by him:


    Failure is simply the opportunity to begin again, this time more intelligently.

    "Your stomach isn't a wastebasket"

    ETA: I guess that's not really a motivational "exercise" quote, but it's motivational to me when I want to eat crappy food. :)

    Saw this somewhere else on the site and it has worked for me so far. "The only thing I hate more than running/exercising is weighing (insert weight here)."

    I saw a picture on Pinterest of a little girl who has two artifical legs and a guy who has two artifical legs who are running and when I feel like I am ready to give up I think of that little girl and I keep pushing myself because if they can do it with artifical legs and smile I need to keep pushing and be grateful for what I have and work harder...

    When I feel like stopping midway during an exercise, I tell myself "Pain is weakness leaving the body..."
