I've been searching for them. I read one and I loved it so much. Well I didn't write it down and now I forgot it.

I know there are pages and pages of these threads, I'm looking on them too.

thanks
have a great day, remember you're worth this journey you're on!

    From the guys at Fat2FitRadio.com (paraphrased):
    It's not what you eat between Thanksgiving and New Years that counts, but what you eat between New Years and Thanksgiving.

    Some of my favorites are
    "It never gets easier; you get stronger"
    "I will do what you won't today, so I can do what you can't tomorrow."
    "Obsessed is just a word the lazy use to describe the dedicated."
    "Strength is the product of struggle."

    Another one isn't exactly an inspirational quote, but it makes me laugh and keeps me going. "It hurts to look this good. I'm in pain everyday." One of the Biggest Loser trainers said it after a contestant complained that she had to stop because her legs hurt.

    Everyone thinks about and prepares for the day they think they will die, when they should prepare for each day they live.

    I have a few I love...

    "There’s a difference between interest and commitment. When you’re interested in doing something, you do it only when it’s convenient. When you’re committed to something, you accept no excuses; only results." - Kenneth Blanchard

    "Those who think they have no time for Exercise will sooner or later have to find time for illness." - Edward Stanley

    "Just because you don't see results after a day or even a week, don't give up. You may not see changes, but every smart choice you make is affecting you in ways you'd never imagine."

    "Courage does not always roar. Sometimes courage is the quiet voice at the end of the day saying, "I will try again tomorrow."

    "Sweat is fat crying"

    "Your body keeps an accurate journal regardless of what you write down"

    "If you don't do what's best for your body, you're the one who comes up on the short end."
    Julius Erving

    "Do not give up what you want the most for what you want in the moment"

    "Knowledge is knowing that a Tomato is a fruit; Wisdom is knowing not to put Tomato in a fruit salad"

    "Train like your stronger, fitter evil twin is plotting to kill you!"
  • Unless you....PUKE! FAINT! or DIE! Keep going!

    No one ever said getting in shape is EASY!
    They never said mainting your weight isEASY!
    but being fat isn't easy either!

    -Marcus Aurelius Antonius : "When you are outraged by somebody's impudence, ask yourself at once, Can the world exist without impudent people? It cannot; so do not ask for impossibilities."

    -Carla Gordan : "If someone talked to you the way you talk to yourself , you would have kicked them out of you life a long ago."

    -Eleanor Roosevelt : "Nobody can make you feel inferior without your consent."

    -Kevin Nealon: Doug "Weeds" : "At what point does CPR become necrophilia?"

    My friend has a Jilian Michaels DVD and she says something like ' you don't know how strong you are until you try' , I can't remember which one it is she had though, she had bought it when we went xmas shopping we put it on to see if I'd be able to adapt many of the exercises if I got one, but it was all like jumping jacks and stuff which is kinda hard to do from a wheelchair.. lol!

    But she's right (jilan I mean) you never know how strong you are until you have to cope with whatever life throws at you!

    I didn't do too bad with the floor exercises though, so have incorporated some of those into my own physio routine! :happy:
  • These are great!

    I'm a Biggest Loser fanatic, so here goes:

    "Get comfortable with being uncomfortable!" - Jillian. This one is for when I don't feel like one more rep in the gym!

    "You've gotta trust the process" - Bob. This one is ideal for plataues. Eat right, exercise, and it will all happen in it's own due time.
  • A few of my favorites:

    "You're never beaten until you admit it" - George S. Patton

    "Whether you think you can or you can't, you're right!" - Henry Ford

    "Do, or do not. There is no try" - Yoda
  • Some of my favorites-not sure who said them:

    The hardest step for a runner is the first one out the front door.

    I never regret it when I do it, but I always regret it when I don't

    I'm worth it.

    Run like you stole something.

    It took more than a day to put it on. It will take more than a day to take it off. MOVE.

    Nothing tastes as good as skinny feels!

    The more you workout, the weaker his knees get.

    Believe you can and you're halfway there.

    Yes you can!!
  • Found some more good ones:

    I may not be there yet, but I’m closer than I was yesterday.

    Will power is a muscle. The more you use it, the STRONGER it gets.

    Do not reward yourself with food, you’re not a dog.

    I like Henry Ford

    Whether you think you can, or you think you can't--you're right

    You can't build a reputation on what you are going to do.
  • No matter how slow you go, you're still lapping those that are sitting on the couch.

    You're never going to get the butt you want by sitting on the one you have.
