Staying Motivated

With the holiday season almost here a client was worried about her motivation waning. She asked me for some motivating quotes to help keep her on track. Actually clients ask for this a lot. (I’ve been known to adopt a few for myself too.) She wants to put them in her food diary which incidentally is always  good for anyone to stay on track no matter what time of the year a person is dieting. (Food diaries are also proven to promote weight loss.)  I gave her a few of my favorite quotes which are:

• ”If you always do what you always did, you’ll always get what you got.” – author unknown
• “If you fail to plan you plan to fail.” – author unknown
• “Nothing tastes as good as being thin feels.” – author unknown
• “You must do the thing you think you can not do.” – Eleanor Roosevelt
• "Discipline is the bridge between goals and accomplishments." - Jim Rohn

Readers let’s build on these. Please post some of your favorite quotes that keep you on track for Halloween this coming weekend and the months ahead.  Or just tell us what you do to stay motivated during tough times.
