    Get (and use) a food scale. That was the biggest eye-opener ever!

    Nothing tastes as good as thin feels.

    Sorry, but that's utter rubbish.

    Yep, I can think of at least a dozen things off the top of my head, and I'm glad it's not an either/or.

    Same! I'd rather be fat than never have chocolate/cheesecake/ice cream/cheeseburgers/etc/etc/etc ever again. Yay, IIFYM!

    Our local one is called Tucanos, but yes, the grilled pineapple is the best part!

    It never gets easier, u just get better.
    Just Do It
    Abs are built in the kitchen
    Go hard or go home

    Not sure who said what except Nike of course, but they all work for me.

    Eat like the person you want to be.


    This is helping me so much. See Future Me rocks around in gym leggings all the time, is proud of her body and the work that has got her there. Future Me smashes her workouts and pushes herself. Future Me enjoys eating in moderation, counting her calories, fueling her workouts because that's what got her to her goals. Future Me has no need to smother her emotions by binge eating. She knows she can eat treats or special meals and it doesnt derail her.

    I really dig Future Me, she's holding my hand through all this.

    I love this so much,

    Make sure that whatever changes you’re making you can sustain for the rest of your life

    1. Consistency is key.
    2. Only do what you can maintain as this is a lifelong journey.
    3. It is okay to eat foods that may be unhealthy in moderation.
    4. Measure yourself if you are not having victories with the scale.
