    You didn't gain the wait over night so you won't lose it over night.

    Simplify things by making it a single choice at a time: what to order off the menu,, what to buy at the grocery store, what to cook for dinner, what will I do to move today?

    Losing weight will not change who you are or how you feel about yourself, sticking to your goals will.

    Giving support to others losing weight helps you focus on your own goals.


    I didn't expect this but it happened to me on MFP.

    Celebrate your successes along the way and don't focus on the end goal - you'll get there!

    Nothing tastes as good as being thin feels

    I really hate this quote, because your goal shouldn't be to be "thin". Your goal should be to be healthy and fit.

    Agreed. I understand the idea behind it but coming from an eating disorder perspective, I'd rather be fat and alive, than skinny and have my organs failing... Not all skinny feels good...

    Slow and steady wins the race!

    I never believed it until I experienced it myself. Not even 3 months in & I've lost 15lbs just eating at a deficit & getting some walking in a couple times a week.

    Try to win the war against poor fitness / bad nutrition by being generally good, focused, and disciplined over a long period of time - don't get bogged and discouraged by the inevitable battles here and there that you will lose against laziness / weakness.

    To eat for strength and not taste. And that even small amounts of processed sugar, which is found in everything, will sicken and kill us.
