    "Shut the hell up and stop making excuses"
    Works everytime!

    If I am pushing myself during a workout, then its only five minutes it takes you longer than that to wash your hair.

    Its only thirty minutes (or hour) out of 24...Get it done!

    I totally use the Nike "JUST DO IT"
    and if I really don't feel like exercising I remind myself that anything is better than nothing, once I get started I usually keep going, but having permission to only do a little helps get me started.

    mine's in my signature.

    "Weight is arbitrary, body fat percent is a truth serum!"

    It means, forget the scale people, concentrate on getting rid of the extra body fat!

    I just remind myself, those fattening foods will still be around when I have reached a healthy weight.

    For food
    Do not need. Do not want.

    As in do not need the extra calories and do not want the extra fat any more :laugh:

    For working out
    I've always got one more in me. One more minute, one more rep, one more interval...

    I have had several people I care about die due to Obesity.... I simply remind myself that I do not want to be next

    I find myself saying outloud: "I don't want that!". I look at those calories and if I have room for them I may calculate the same calories in a 'good' snack and have that instead.

    I don't deny myself, if I have room for the 'DEVIL' snack I may have some, but not often. Remember this lifestyle is supposed to be sustainable. You are going to want that cake, pie, etc... at some point, don' deny yourself a portioned piece sometimes. That's what makes life worth living. Just remember you goals and lifestyle you are striving for at all times.

    Mine is:

    "Discipline is remembering what you want"

    And I want to fit back into my spagetti strap dress I wore on our honeymoon. I even made a graphic card with a pic of me in the dress (when I was skinny) with my 'mantra' next to it. I take it with me to the gym and set it on the treadmill.
