    If you always tell the truth, you never have to remember what you said.
    - my Mom

    Love this-I was told the same thing by my mom, and I told it to my kids. And they really do get it-always face the music and never lie. Awesome!!!!

    ^^ I got this from my mom too. :bigsmile:

    I have seen this quote attributed to Mark Twain. That's where I got it from.

    "If you tell the truth, you don't have to remember anything."

    "Realize that anyone who tries to put you down about your appearance is assuming that it is your job to please them visually. Once you realize that it isn't your job to be visually pleasing to anyone, ever, it becomes very hard for anyone to make you feel bad about yourself" ~Lessons Learned in Life

    love this!

    This is a bit long winded, but one of the quotes that hammered in to me the fact that undoing the damage I had done to myself would be relativelt painful, and there was no way around it.

    "Basically, if you think of your glycogen stores as a water glass, you filled that ****er up years ago and kept dumping buckets of water on top of the full glass for years, while leaving it out in the rain. In Seattle. Your insulin receptors threw in the ****ing towel years ago, while you were shoving Little Debbie snack cakes down your piehole and washing it down with a Coke. You've completely destroyed your body's ability to correctly recognize its own metabolic signals, so you're going to have to suffer a bit to undo the damage you've done."

    Watch your thoughts; they become words. Watch your words; they become actions. Watch your actions; they become your habits. Watch your habits; they become your character. Watch your character; it becomes your destiny.

    love this one too!

    Anyone can give up, it's the easiest thing in the world to do. But to hold it together when everyone else would understand if you fell apart, that's true strength.


    Amen.

    "The past can hurt, but the way I see it you can either run from it or learn from it.'

    I have to repeat this one to myself everyday.
