My quote on my fitness pal is "Unless you faint, puke or die keep walking." That was of course said by tough trainer Jillian Michaels who has to be my biggest fitness inspiration.


I also heard a quote the other day on the biggest loser which I thought was perfect. "Your toughest competition is the person you look at when you look in the mirror." That was said by Dolvett. I thought it was great!


What are some of your favorite motivation quotes?:smile:

    " Life's Journey is not to arrive at the grave safely in a well perserved body, but rather skid in sideways, totally worn out, shouting "Holy ****!!...... what a ride!" I read that and thought, how true.. to experience all that life has to offer.. so I dont want to squander it with unhealthy activitiy, I want to use my body to its fullest potential and go on trips and experience life.. climb mountains, and swim in oceans.....so i can skid in at the end and say.. HOLYYYYYY ****!! WHAT A RIDE!!.. lets go again :D

    It will hurt. It will take time. It will require dedication. It will require willpower. You will need to make healthy decisions. It requires sacrifice. You will need to push your body to its max. There will be temptation. But ,I promise you, when you reach your goal its worth it!

    I love the 2nd one. That makes a good point.


    My cousin used to have her MFP quote as "Don't dig your grave with your own knife and fork"

    A few of my favorites:

    1.) "Suffer with the discipline of today or deal with the regret of tomorrow."
    2.) "Success is the sum of small efforts, repeated day in and day out." -R. Collier
    3.) "Eat clean; train dirty."
    4.) Wake up with determination. Go to bed with satisfaction.
    5.) Tough times don't last. Tough people do.

    Not really a fitness-only related quote, but this one has always stuck with me.

    Opportunity dances with those who are already on the dance floor.
    - Jackson Brown
    For me, this means if I'm doing something...anything...to help myself get healthier, I am that much better off than not doing anything at all.

    Nothing tastes as good as thin feels. Better choices for more tomorrows.
