in Motivation and Support
What are some inspirational/motivational quotes to keep you motivated.

"You don't have to be great to start, but you have to start to be great." - I used that to help me get through my first half marathon.

"Don't be upset by the results for the work you didn't do." - Keeps me going at the gym/running when I feel like quitting.

"If you're tired of starting over, then stop giving up." - When I hit the wall, I keep this in mind.

'Skinny girls look good in clothes. Fit girls look good naked." Because, I want to feel good naked. :)

    How bout the one my husband gave me when I said I wanted Liposuction...."we're broke! Get off your fat *kitten* and exercise!" Worked for me..30 lbs lighter and pretty much overhauled my whole body!!! :drinker:

    P.S...I am just kidding about what he said. He would NEVER say such to me...I am red headed and Scotch/German. :devil:

    Love it! - here's a few that have stuck with me (quite literally on pinterest!)

    "I really regret doing that workout" - No-one, ever.

    Discipline is choosing between what you want now and what you want most.

    You're off to great places, Today is your day, Your mountain is waiting, so get on your way! - Dr Seuss

    Fit is not a destination, it is a way of life

    CTRL your portions and hunger ALT your lifestyle and choices DEL junk food & bad vibes

    Don't quit. Suffer now and live the rest of your life as a champion. - Muhammad Ali

    and my favourite...

    With just 5 minutes of exercise a day...........

    Goal: Looking in the mirror and thinking, "Damn, I'm sexy!"

    Don't do more than you can do...until you can.

    If she can do it, I better be able to do it too!

    It's a "journey", but it's okay to include Disneyland along the way.
