    Success is measured in how many times you get back up, not how many times you fall.

    Avoid the forums.

    :laugh:

    Seriously, though:
    When you suffer a temporary setback, don't use it as an excuse to give up.

    It's only a "journey" if you plan on it ending.

    I'm not saying it's going to be easy, I'm telling you it's going to be worth it.

    Don't do anything to lose weight that you're not willing to do for the rest of your life.

    During my weight loss journey, I learned that I needed to make permanent lifestyle changes instead of going on a temporary diet.

    Aut inveniam viam aut faciam. This is on my profile. It translates to I shall either find a way or make one.

    Getting to goal weight is NOT the finish line....it is the starting line. (I wish I could remember who posted that so I could give them credit)

    it takes time, may not see results in a day but they will slowly show your hard work!

    took me a long time to realise that, all i can do is try.. anything i do today will only make me better tomorrow, im so dedicated to doing this properly no matter how long it takes :)

    Talk to yourself like you are talking to a friend, especially on the bad days.

    That's a great one! It's very easy to be our own worst critic and to get down on ourselves.

    I also like:
    "Transformation is not a future event - it is a present activity" Jillian Michaels saying do something about it now! Don't wait until tomorrow
