Second 6 of 24 Motivational Weight Loss and Fitness Quotes Part II
7. Steps to get stronger
Your muscles might be shaky, sore, and sensitive today, but tomorrow,
they’ll be strong, sleek, and slim. You'll feel great from the inside out!
8. Being toned is in style
Being strong doesn’t necessarily mean bulky muscles and ripped abs.
Create a tight, toned body by doing “bulk-free” exercises, such as the Monkey Push,Triceps Down Dog or Dancing Half Moon Kick
9. No-regret workout
No matter how big or small the workout, you’ll feel energized,strong, and
confident afterward.

Sometimes, your brain can be your own worst enemy. Keep yourself mentally sharp (and thinking positive thoughts) by snacking on nuts,
adopting a Mediterranean cooking style, and getting plenty of sleep.
12. Work up a sweat Don’t be afraid of a little sweat during your workout.
Be prepared by staying hydrated and choosing the right pre- and post-workout liquids to fuel your body and help
your muscles recover, such as water, sports drinks, or
chocolate milk.

Third 6 of 24 Motivational Weight Loss and Fitness Quotes
13. Just go
You don’t have to run a sub two-hour half marathon or do a set of bicep curls in under one minute to be successful and achieve your weight-loss
goals. Do what feels comfortable and natural, and always remember: Slow
and steady wins the race!
14. Hard work pays off
The key to working out to lose weight is to actually stick to your workout.
It’s easier to dedicate yourself to a fitness activity when it’s something you
enjoy.
15. Give it your all
Embrace your sore muscles! Know that every achy body part is becoming
healthier and stronger. Don't forget to stretch your muscles to help
recover and gain more flexibility.
16. Work for excellence
We know how hard it is to eat healthy all the time and stick to a workout plan. It's work! But, the more you do something the easier—and more
enjoyable—the moves become. The same goes for healthy eating.
We know you can do it!
17.Healthy food, happy body
That craving for a bag of Doritos can be satisfied with the click of a
vending machine button. But, the feeling after eating them might not be
worth it. Trade in that craving for a delicious fat-burning snack or workout session with your friend for more long-term and healthier results.
18. Smart eating
Fast food and many pre-packaged foods and snacks contain high levels trans fat, sugar, sodium, and carbs. Choose whole foods such fresh fruits and veggies,whole grains, and lean proteins to help lower your fat, sugar,
and cholesterol intakes.
20. Win when you lose
Whether you're on a 1400-calorie diet, doing fat-burning exercises, or
working to eat more superfoods, bask in the fact that the more pounds
you drop, or areas you tone, the more you're winning!
21. Remember your goals
We've all had moments of weakness during a workout or while trying to
adhere to a healthy meal plan. The trick is to remember those key reasons
you started in the first place. If you're getting fit for your family, or trying
to do activities together, make an inspiration board with positive sayings
and photos to look at for motivation during weak moments.
22. Taking the first step
Once you take the first step of a workout, the rest just seems to fly by.
The first step can even be easy. Begin with a walking program to build
endurance, then move to jogging and running.
23. No more mental games
Your body knows it can do it, but sometimes it takes your brain a little
longer to process the information. Don't let anything or anyone—even
yourself—stand between you and your goals.
24. Work hard at your dreams
Don’t be afraid to shoot for the moon—even if you fail—and tackle your goals. The feeling you’ll get once you accomplish them is so much better
than the feeling you'll get letting your dreams pass you by.
Hello girls, it's been a long weekend. Ill try to post this week, but we're getting ready to have a camping vacation. We're taking our 4 g-babes & this is the first time camping for the 4 yr old & he's thrilled. We've taken his older brothers & sister beginning @ age 4. Dh takes them fishing in his canoe & they love catching & eating their fish. We have a big pop-up camper w 2 queen size beds & a bathroom. Because of my hand being injured we're not taking our 2 kayaks this trip, usually while Dh fishes w 2 of the kids, 1 of the older 2 kids will use Dh kayak & we go exploring the lake shore watching frogs, etc. leaping on lily pads together.
If I don't get back to post this week, I wish each of you a Wonderful, Happy, Safe week & weekend whatever you do.
With my Love & a big Hug Dee

Terapet-glad to hear your feeling better and work is getting more manageable. Sounds like you are getting closer to getting back on track with things again.
Just wanted to share some thoughts with you today.
Don't take this as preaching.
Take this as some advice from one friend to another.
You will know if this is meant for you or not.
You will feel it in your heart, and in your soul.
Feeling down today.....don't be. You are loved.
God loves you!
God made you, so you are a special creation,
one that he made perfect in every way.
God doesn't make trash.
God makes wonderful things and beings.
So then, You are wonderful!
When God made you, life was his gift to you. So you are very special!!!
What you choose to do with his gift, is your gift to God.
