    Someday is not a day of the week.

    Or

    Never eat an egg salad sandwich from a vending machine.

    Lol, I have a list of nearly 200 diet and exercise quotes. Some of my favourites are:

    • If hunger is not the problem, then eating is not the solution
    • Exercise is hard by the yard, but an inch is a cinch
    • The best exercise for losing weight? Exercising a little self control
    • Exercise is the penalty for living beyond your seams
    • Some people trade tit-for-tat. Healthy people trade fit-for-fat
    • It’s not the minutes spent at the table that put on weight, it’s the seconds
    • The journey of a thousand pounds starts with a single ounce
    • Your biggest opponent is yourself
    • Don’t dig your grave with your own knife and fork
    • You can’t lose weight by talking about it. You have to keep your mouth shut

    "Your workout is my warmup."

    I've got to always push myself harder. Complacency is an easy place to slip into.

    First it was: I can do this. I am worth it. (Trying to convince myself that it was actually true)
    Now it's: I AM doing this. I love the new me. (I no longer doubt myself and listen to those negative voices)
