What is your "moto" to keep you going?

I find myself saying "Just do it"! (yes, I stole it from Nike...LOL)

Everytime I say....I don't feel like going to the gym......JUST DO IT!

I don't feel like making something healthy....JUST DO IT!

What are your sayings to get you going??

Ive gotten this far there is no way Im going to ruin it now...

 especially when I see cake and cookies lol

Mine isn't so much a moto as a reminder that if I screw up, there's a good chance I'll be walking naked down the aisle on my wedding day because my dress won't fit.

"Nothing tastes as good as Skinny feels !"

This is taped on my computer at work to help with those mid day cookie and chocolate cravings.

Find an excuse to win.

My motto for everything now is "this too shall pass". 

I say it when something stressful or bad is happening to remind me that it will eventually be fixed or over.  I also say it when I'm in the middle of a workout and want to quit.  The feeling will go away, the workout will pass just like every other day.  Before I know it, it will be over. 

Sounds kinda stupid, but it works for me. 

Also "just 5 more minutes!!" when I want to push myself during a workout.

my motto?  um..."Fat sucks"?

my new motto? "if you don't measure it, it doesn't count!"

i am soooo working on not "guessing" at the serving size. i hit a plateau for the last couple of weeks and if you add up my calories in and calories out, i should have lost at least 1.5 pounds! ARGH! so the only thing i can think of is i am missing some things that are going in. be it i "forgot" to input it into the computer or i "guesstimated" on the serving size. 

 

My motto/mantra:  "You can do it, just keep going."

This is a bit cheesy, but Billy Blanks from Tae Bo is always talking about "pulling from a higher place" so when I'm working out and really angry and sore or bored, I think "pull from a higher place..." I figure, if I can mentally remove myself from the situation and have that little extra burst of energy to push me through, it's worth it, and it will be over soon.

You can all do it! find your inspiration!

Mine is kind of sappy i think...my motivation....i exercise in my living room....right in front of a lovely picture of my father in law who passed away almost three years ago....he was the most encouraging man i've ever known...(okay so his son isn't too bad in that department) anyway....when i first came into the family he went on the list to wait for a heart transplant...and they requested he lose a lot of weight to make it easier to find a heart....he did it....and we thankfully got another ten years with him....anyway whenever i am exercising and feel like i can't go on...i look at his smiling face and think he would be so proud of me....and i keep going....

I love them all! Justjulee...yours is so sweet! Almost made me cry

I try to stay far away from the typical "pro-ED" motto's, such as : nothing tastes as good as thin feels, a moment on the lips and lifetime on the hips etc. And just stick to the thought of how HEALTHY i feel, rather than how slim i'm going to be.

So I guess mine is "Think of how you'll feel afterwards" cause no one feels healthy after they binge on lots of crap.

For a while my moto whenever I wanted naughty stuff was "why?" generally followed by a shrug and me getting the hell away from bad foods. That worked for a while ...

Get it done

I say I can do this.... I can do this.......

"Don't you want to fit into that army tank next year?"

i got a zillion weddings to go to this year starting this summer and if i'm gonna spend that much damn money on these dresses i sure as hell better look good in them and in my pictures!!!!!

 that and that i don't want the work i have done so far to be wasted so i might as well keep going!  and remind myself of all my complaints about my jeans not fitting and such....

i'm kind of well known around here for saying "it's not a race" and "i'm not on a diet"  LOL 

but lately, it's like "i can almost actually taste that next pound down".  when i start thinking about junk food or something, i think about dropping that next pound instead!  that next pound down tastes a whole lot better!!!  :D

when i'm about to go over my calories i say "if you want it bad enough, oh, if you want it bad enough..."

&when i ant junk, i say, "well wouldn't eat be better to eat something else with tons of good-for-me things &tasty too?"

 

 

 I will never surrender. I will never give up.

I am not on a diet, I am changing my life style.
