What is your favorite quote or saying that keeps you motivated?

"Nothing tastes as good as thin feels".

F. Scott Fitzgerald : "Never confuse a single defeat with a final defeat."

Success is sweet and sweeter if long delayed and gotten through many struggles and defeats." -Amos Bronson Alcott

This can apply to weight loss, but it's not really about motivation, but more of philosophy on life:

"Every time you wake up and ask yourself, "What good things am I going to do today?", remember that when the sun goes down at sunset, it will take a part of your life with it."
Indian proverb

It's not whether you get knocked down. It's whether you get up again.
Vince Lombardi

Do or do not, there is no try ~Yoda

Not weight loss related-- but it's:

Of all the things I've lost in life, i miss my mind the most!

I have so many! Um .....
Eat less and move more.

If you want it, you'll find a way. If you don't ... you'll find an excuse.

"You'll never achieve extraordinary results by taking average measures." - Skwigg

"If you really want to lose, you'll find a way, and if you don't want to, you'll find an excuse. It's up to you." (Sorry, don't know the source)

"If you could have done no more, then there can be no sense of failure." (Don't know source of this one either)

Oops... just realised that Meg has one of the same ones. It must be a good one huh?

Anything worth having is worth working for!

As much as I hate the structure of the sentence (ugh, it ends with a preposition! Can you tell I'm a technical editor/writer? ), I love the message.

Build A Bridge... And Get Over It... If I've messed up, fallen short of my healthy eating, slacked off on my exercise instead of beating myself up over it.. I build a bridge.. lol

falling down is not defeat - not getting back up again is.

The ones in my signature.

"Never go back, only go forward."

I don't know if it counts as a quote, but when I'm working out I frequently tell myself I can do anything for 1 minute when I'm trying to push myself to go just a little bit harder.

"Habit is habit and not to be flung out of the window by any man, but coaxed downstairs a step at a time. - Mark Twain"
