    These are brilliant! I have written a couple down for myself.

    Depending on what mood I am in or what I am doing:

    "Patience not perfection"

    and

    "Man up B***h!!"

    Nothing tastes as good as lean and fit feels.
    I also talk to myself on the treadmill and the elliptical and the stationary bike on a regular basis. Do you think
    that it will just melt away? Or, you are done when your are done!

    Mine are "Excuses are for people who don't want it bad enough"
    And also "Don't stop, push harder, keep going"

    Simple and easy to remember and chant internally to push through the tough part of a workout.
    I have tons of quotes I love but these 2 simple ones seem to run through my head the most while working out.

    I have three: 1) The journey of a thousand miles starts with a single step. 2) Eventually something has got to change (if I'm not seeing results). 3) I'm sick of being fat!

    But i like your's. Think I will add it.

    Mine is a response to someone who says they don't have time to exercise. I say: Walk around the block during your lunch or break. They say: That is not enough to even count as exercise. So here it is~~~~I say: Remember when it comes to exercise, SOMETHING is better than NOTHING!

    Like the couch quote it goes well with: SOMETHING is better than NOTHING!

    During my runs, I like to think of each run as individual "free therapy". I don't have to pay for someone to listen to me talk about my worries; I can just run them out of my feet. So my main thought is "Cheap, cheap, cheap, cheap.."

    Basically, I have the sound of marshmallow Peeps playing in my head. It's awesome.

    For food: Nothing tastes as good as thin feels. I've lost 70 lbs and I can tell you it's 100% true.

    For exercise: I have a bodybugg so I ask myself if I'm going to be happy with what I see later. If I feel like I can wring a few more calories burned out of myself then I know I need to try harder!
