I admit, I'm a sucker for a good quote. Here's a couple (of many) I like. What's yours???



Trying is planning to fail -Jillian Michaels

You don't love yourself or you'd take better care of your body. -Jillian Michaels

I don't believe that old cliche, "good things come to those who wait." I believe that good things come to those who want something so bad they can't sit still -Ashton Kutcher

    I like this one!

    I keep stealing one I saw on here that said "somewhere, somebody busier than you is running:, and obviously I like the one I put in my signature.

    Here's a couple more I've kept in mind

    “If you always do what you have always done, then you will always get what you have always gotten.”

    “If it is important to you, you will find a way. If not, you’ll find an excuse.”

    “Try and fail is the way of losers; try and learn is the way of the strong.”

    “There are only two options regarding commitment, You’re either in or your out. There’s no such thing as life in between.”

    “Your body hears everything your mind says.”

    I didn't say it would be easy, I said it would be worth it.

    If you can't make time for exercise you'll eventually have to make time for illness.

    You can be sore tomorrow or you can be sorry tomorrow. You choose.

    Every bite you eat is an act of nourishment or an act of suicide.

    Of course it's hard. It's supposed to be hard. If it wasn't hard, everyone would do it. The hard... is what makes it great.

    Suffer the pain of discipline or suffer the pain of regret.

    Do you want to be the kind of person who gets *kitten* done? Or do you want to be the kind of person who gets *kitten* on?

    Just DO IT.

    Sweat is fat crying.

    "So what are you going to do about it?"

    It's the answer everytime I'm not happy with something, and what I have on my journal. Others include:

    "No time like the present" - in other words, get off your duff, missy!

    "A journey of a thousand miles begins with one step." - We all have to start somewhere, the point is to start and keep going.

    A year from now, what will you wish you had done today?

    Someone busier than you is running right now.

    Don't give up what you want most for what you want in the moment.

    Your body is not a garbage can.

    Would you rather have a gap between your thighs or pizza? Collar bones or cheesecake? Bad@$$ endurance or "one more episode" of that show?

    There is an athlete in everyone.

    Food is for nutrition.

    If the problem is not hunger, the answer is not food.

    Insanity works dig deeper.

    Your results are only as good as y our efforts.

    Nothing taste as good as skinny feels.

    Eat less move more THAT'S IT!

    This is for the girl that's on the outside always looking in at me.

    Its when everything screams STOP yet the hunger for the want pushes you to push on.

    Its not about winning anything its about fixing what's broke.

    :laugh: i have so many that i love, hope you fine motivation in atleast one...

    Some things can not be overcome with determination and a positive attitude. My goal is not one of them.
