    I do not have a quote as such but as I was running today, I was chanting "I will not be a fat bride" over and over again in my head. I will sure feel dumb if I fail and I am one! Craziness.

    "I refuse to by fat pants!".

    I say that because I am determined to fit back into the clothes I have and not go out an buy "comfy" pants.

    I need to start doing that! I'm only 4 months out with some weight left to lose!

    My favorite saying that I've heard is, "You can eat 1,000 calories in a matter of minutes, but it will take hours to burn off 1,000 calories". I think of that every time I want to eat a spoonful of frosting :)

    My favorites that I wrote on my fridge the other day:

    You can have results OR excuses, but not both.

    NOTHING tastes as good as skinny feels.

    The only workout you will regret is the one you didn't do!

    "Abs are made in the kitchen".

    "Strong is the new skinny" is my favorite "saying"

    what I say to myself as I get my *kitten* kicked every night during my work out - "I'm doing this for ME"

    My trainer made me a T-shirt saying "It's not sweat, it's liquid AWESOME!"....love that one.

    My friend and I both like to say "Yeah, look at me now, cause in 6 months, you won't RECOGNIZE me!"

    Ok, liquid awesome cracks me up!!!

    One of mine is "A year from now, you'll wish you'd started today". Always gets me motivated!!

    "they say you are what you eat, well i don't remember eating a sexy beast this morning" haha just kidding. i really don't have a specific quote either. when i start doubting how much longer i can push in my workouts i find a picture of a wedding dress i could never wear at my current weight and stare at that for a while. it sounds cruel but it works!

    Something like:

    Exercise: What you could be doing while you are making up another bullsh!t reason why you can't.

    Suck it up & One day you won't have to suck it in.

    Our deepest fear is not that we are inadequate. Our deepest fear is that we are powerful beyond measure. It is our light, not our darkness that most frightens us. We ask ourselves, Who am I to be brilliant, gorgeous, talented, fabulous? Actually, who are you not to be? Your playing small does not serve the world. There is nothing enlightened about shrinking so that other people won't feel insecure around you. We are all meant to shine, as children do. It's not just in some of us; it's in everyone. And as we let our own light shine, we unconsciously give other people permission to do the same. As we are liberated from our own fear, our presence automatically liberates others - M WILLIAMSON

    Not a weight loss quote specifically, but: "No growth without resistance, no action without reaction, no desire without restraint."

    The only rest worth having is the rest you've earned

    and...

    whenever I'm doing squats I'm like, "Does my *kitten* make my *kitten* look big?" over and over in my head hoping for the perfect squat booty to just magically appear.

    I came up with a new favorite yesterday:

    "Keep pushing to win, the participation trophies suck this year. "
  • Posts: 1,314 Member
    My workout instructor always wraps up his class pep talk by saying "And remember, I'm not saying this is a perverted way or anything, but I want your body fluids. Sweat, tears, blood or vomit. I want to see all of that before class is over"
