"I am strong. I know no limits. I can defy gravity and shatter stereotypes. My curves are earned as my weakness is shed. I trade soft for firm and tears for sweat. I turn guilt into satisfaction and tomorrows chore into today's opportunity" - Oksana Grishina

Weight loss isn't linear.

This has helped me so many times when the scale hasn't been what I was expecting and wanting. It helps to remember that it is normal for the scale to fluctuate and that keeps me motivated in those moments of disappointment.

Mind Over Matter. It seems so simple, just three little words, but it has honestly helped me.

Warning! Crude Language! The quote that inspires me the most is...

"I don't exercise for my health, I do it to look sexy as f*** naked."

Obviously I do it for my health too, but I read that once and fell in love with it. It's hilarious and totally my kind of humor.

"You're too young to be here."

These are the words said to me by the doctor who put 2 stents in my chest after having a heart attack at age 44.

"A journey of a thousand miles begins with a single step."

Applies to life as well as weight loss. I have it tattooed on my hip I love it so much.

Perfect is the enemy of good.

I spent so long considering my efforts failures because I wasn't doing things perfectly (like there is such a thing) but then I realised that I was still making progress, I was still losing weight, getting fitter and making good habits. So why get angry or sad about not being perfect when I was actually achieving what I wanted to achieve anyway? Good enough for the win!

I'm not on a diet. It's a lifestyle change!

Eat healthy for today and worry about tomorrow when it comes! ( Too often I find myself wrapped up in "how long it'll take" and how many times I have failed before)

Suzlee1995 - I can't quite remember the quote but a related one to yours is "A year from now you will have wished you started today. Don't wait for tomorrow, start today." I agree - let's forget about how long it will take. I have done that for too many years and it derails me everytime. Even if it is only a pound every couple weeks, that will mean 50 gone after a year....I'll take that!!!

The following Vince Lombardi quotes, which could obviously apply to life in general.

"The price of success is hard work, dedication to the job at hand, and the determination that whether we win or lose, we have applied the best of ourselves to the task at hand."

"The only place success comes before work is in the dictionary."

"Winners never quit and quitters never win."

"It's not whether you get knocked down, it's whether you get up."

"The harder you work, the harder it is to surrender."

And my favorite Vince Lombardi quote:

"The difference between a successful person and others is not a lack of strength, not a lack of knowledge, but rather a lack of will."
