"You have to want it more than..."

"Weight loss is 100 percent mental. You have to want it more than you want to eat a cupcake. You have to want it more than you want to sit on the couch and watch tv instead of going to the gym. You have to want it more than anything!"

- Jackson Carter

    What you need to learn is sometimes you can HAVE that cupcake, as long as it fits in your calories. Will never understand why people think they have to cut out everything they love to lose weight. Just have to cut back.
