    patience... it takes time, it won't happen overnight...

    um, actually in the midst of this one but I do think it's something we all work toward along the way.. realizing we didn't gain inches/lbs. overnight, it won't be overnight that we lose it all.

    Great thread!:drinker: :wink:

    so true... I see this one a lot but not sure until now that I've really seen it before, if you know what I mean?

    What you eat in private, shows in public

    Funny but true.

    Love this thread!

    Believing in me - self-confidence - I am a runner there is no such thing as jogging.
    If you never failed, you have never succeeded!

    If it doesn't taste fantastic, don't eat it.

    No judgement, just data, log everything.

    "eat to live, not live to eat" doesn't really do it for me. As much as I don't want to 'live to eat', I also don't want to just 'eat to live'

    I enjoy food.... that will never change AND I don't want it to - how boring would that be!?!!

    That being said, just don't over do it. I can eat a little of something yummy and not have to cry myself to sleep over it as long as I'm not excessive with it.

    Balance is key!

    Enjoy the journey.
    I found that once I started thinking about what I was eating I prepared food more carefully (after all - it was a valuable commodity!) and experimented with different flavours. I actually enjoy my meals more now. I also now get a buzz from exercising whereas a couple of months ago I hated it.

    I need to stop referring to things I "can't" do - I keep showing myself how wrong I am.

    The best exercise is the one you'll do.

    Gluttony and idleness are two of life's great joys, but they are not honourable.
