Since we all need motivation at different times during any journey, I thought that it would be great to share our favorite sayings with each other.

We have all heard the "Nothing tastes as good as being thin feels", do you have one to share with everybody?

Mine is:

"Your sure can't get to where you are going by sitting on the couch"

I'm taking my own advice and going to exercise!:clap2:

Move it and Lose it!

"Even if you're on the right track, you'll get run over if you just stand there."

"Even if you're on the right track, you'll get run over if you just stand there."

That's KEWL....I've never heard that one before and I LIKE it!!

This is one I came across in the past few months. I love Richard Simmons and he was on a documentary, the One Ton Man (I think that's the name) and I love what he said.

Food never solved any problems, past, present or future. -Richard Simmons

It's so true.

"You get what you settle for."

Love that one, its from Thelma and Louise, but hell I dont care! Loved that movie too.

Here's mine. It's so corny but I was driving to work and billboard for an auto dealer has this saying. I thought that would apply to me.

"Not Whatever ; Whatever it takes"

The early bird may get the worm, but the second mouse gets the cheese.

Live, Love, Laugh.

I always follow some simple advice my Grandma used to tell me, which was

"You can't change ANYthing without changing SOMEthing". So bit by bit I have begun to make changes, small changes, to better myself, and my life.

Kat

If you do what you've always done, you'll get what you've always gotten.

That's what inspired me to be brave and get banded rather than go on another diet.

I have a book I've started, so I'll post a few. Dr. Phil is by far my favorite when it comes to motivational quotes.

<!--fonto:Comic Sans Ms--><!--/fonto-->Dr. Phil<!--fontc--><!--/fontc-->

You create your own experience. If you want different you have to do different.

No one ever climbed a hill just by looking at it.

Create what you want by doing what you can.

To have what you want you have to do what it takes.

Break down your goals into manageable steps.

Change is slow...When it is real change, it takes time.

Stop justifying your inactivity and stop avoiding the challenge of change.

You can't change what you don't acknowledge.

Oprah Winfrey

Become the change you want to see.

Failure is just a way for our lives to show us we're moving in the wrong direction, and that we should try something different.

Tom Landry

Setting a goal is not the main thing. It is deciding how you will go about achieving it and staying with that plan.

John Wooden

Do not let what you cannot do interfere with what you can do.

Dottie Walters

Success is not a doorway, it's a staircase.

If you do what you've always done, you'll get what you've always gotten.

That's a good one. :biggrin1: I used to have it in my office cubicle at a job I was previously at. But it's funny, I didn't associate it with weight loss at the time.

Eric's mom I love that.

Tom Landry

Setting a goal is not the main thing. It is deciding how you will go about achieving it and staying with that plan

"Through Christ all Things Are Possible"

"Just Do It"

I love quotes!! Let's see...

"Yard by yard, it's very hard. But inch by inch, it's a cinch."

-- Anon (but I bet he was on a diet!!)

"I'm not there yet, but I'm closer than I was yesterday." -- Anon (still on that diet)

"Instead of thinking about where you are, think about where you want to be. It takes twenty years of hard work to become an overnight success." -- Diana Rankin

I found this one the other day by Zig Zigler:

"Success is one thing you can't pay for. You buy it on the installment plan and make payments every day. "
