I have two favorite quotes regarding weight...

1. Friends (TV) They are watching a video of Monica and Ross as teenagers and Monica is quite large. She says, "Remember, the camera adds 10 pounds" to which Chandler responds. "Exactly how many cameras are on you right now?"

2. The Devil Wears Prada "I am only one stomach flu away from my goal weight."

What are your favorites?

    The Devil Wears Prada for sure. I have often quoted that to my husband, and his response is "There is always something going around at work, so why don't you come lick the toilet seats!" Makes me reconsider the idea. LOL!

    There was an episode of Roseanne where she decided to go on a diet because her pants didn't fit, and she was trying to convince Dan to do it with her. He said, "Look, we don't live in a nice house, we don't drive nice cars. Food is the one luxury we can afford." She responded with "Food is supposed to keep you alive, not provide entertainment value."

    I say that to myself a lot, even though I LOVE to cook and eat good food.

    My quote is from the TV series "Til Death"

    Joy and Eddie have been married for years and a newly married couple move in next door. Joy comes down stairs in work out gear and says

    Joy: "We are going jogging."

    Eddie: "What!? No, you said we could be fat. That was our 40th birthday present to each other."

    Joy: "That was before I met our new next door neighbor and I looked like I could eat her."

    “No diet will remove all the fat from your body because the brain is entirely fat. Without a brain, you might look good, but all you could do is run for public office.” George Bernard Shaw

    Our bodies are apt to be our autobiographies. ~Frank Gillette Burgess

    In the long run, we shape our lives, and we shape ourselves. The process never ends until we die. And the choices we make are ultimately our own responsibility.
    Eleanor Roosevelt

    Love it. :D
