Favorite Motivational Saying

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. "

Two of my favorites:

1) The only way out is through

2) From an old Indigo Girls song:

Now I know a refuge never grows

From a chin in a hand in a thoughtful pose

Gotta tend the earth if you want a rose.

<DT>I have always thought of this quote as my work related quote, but now I believe it's my "life quote"....</DT>

<DT><DT>"Success is not the result of spontaneous combustion. You must set yourself on fire." ~Reggie Leach <DT><DT>

It makes me remember that I have to work to get where I want to be - in all phases of my life.

Never Judge a book by it's cover.

If God brings you to it, He will bring you through it.

Happy moments, praise God.

Difficult moments, seek God.

Quiet moments, worship God.

Painful moments, trust God.

Every moment, thank God.

MY VERY ACTIVE DADDY DIED AT A YOUNG AGE, REALLY HIT ME HARD :think SINCE THEN I'VE LEARNED, NEVER TAKE LIFE FOR GRANT, LIVE LIKE NO TOMORROW :eek:

Life should NOT be a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in an attractive and well preserved body, but rather to skid in sideways, chocolate in one hand, wine in the other, body thoroughly used up, totally worn out and screaming "WOO HOO what a ride!" <O:p</O:p

My favorite is on my sig. Be bold, true, stout-hearted, and brave. To me this means: Be bold in everything you try, true to everyone around you, stout-hearted so you don't give up, and brave enough to change.

It is something I made up a while back to engrave on a ring that I wear everyday...

"Just the Middles"

Taken from FlyLady. She talks about just vacuuming the middles of your carpet, don't worry about the corners and behind the sofa. You'll get to that. Don't get overwhelmed...just worry about the middles.

So I apply that to all kinds of things throughout my day. For weight loss, it's about being okay if it isn't perfect. The perfect day has 1200 calories, less than 130 carbs, less than 30 fats, more than 60 protiens (or whatever), I have exercised hard for an hour and my entire house is clean. Yah, right. Just the middles. It's OKAY!!!!!!

Life is a journey and too many of us are camping!

It's insanity to do something the same way over and over and expect a different result. (maybe A.Einstein?)

This confirms for me that the band was the way to go. I didn't need another try at diets, pills, ww groups, etc WITHOUT the proper TOOL!

Terry :eek:

      I have no clue where to upload this, so I'll put it here. This is pre-op vs the morning of my 6 month appointment! In office I weight 232, that's 88 lbs down since my highest weight, 75 lbs since my surgery weight! I can't believe this jacket fit... I am smaller now than the last time I was this size which the surgeon found really amusing. He's happy with where I am in my weight loss and estimates I'll be around 200 lbs by my 1 year anniversary! My lowest weight as an adult is 195, so that's pretty damn exciting to think I'll be near that at a year. Everything from there will be unknown territory!!

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

        That's brilliant! You've done amazing!! I should probably think about changing my profile picture at some point. Mine is the doll from Squid Games. Ironically the whole premise of the show is about dodging death. We've both done that...

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks
