Weight Loss Quotes

Weight Loss Quotes

• Quote #1
  "Patience is bitter, but its fruit is sweet." - Jean Jacques Rousseau
  Permanent weight loss is a slow and methodical process. Permanent weight loss will not happen over night. However, when you reach your goal, you will feel great mentally, emotionally, and physically. Be patient and persevere.



• Quote #2
  "The men who have succeeded are men who have chosen one line and stuck to it." - Andrew Carnegie.
  What is the best weight loss plan? There is no best plan. Every person is different. The only method to discover your best plan is through trial and error. However, in order to assess the effectiveness of the plan you choose, you must stick to one plan. You have to give that plan your all for at least a month before you will know if it will work for you. The best weight loss plan for you is out there. You just have to find it and stick to it.



• Quote #3
  "It does not matter how slowly you go so long as you do not stop." - Confucius
  Weight loss is not a competition. It does not matter how long it takes for you to get to the finish line as long as you get there. Actually, the slower you go, the more likely you are to get to your goal weight. So, take your time. There is no rush. The true key is that you persevere, that you never give up, and you never stop moving towards your goal. Speed is irrelevant. Persistence is everything.


 
• Quote #4
  "I am not afraid of storms for I am learning how to sail my ship." - Louisa May Alcott
  There will be many hurdles in your way as you lose weight. When you reach your weight goal, there will be even more hurdles in your way, trying to keep you from maintaining your weight loss. Do not fear them. They are inevitable. You cannot control them. However, you can and must control yourself. The hurdles will always be there, you just have to learn to avoid them, jump over them, or run through them. These hurdles may cause you to fall or fail. The key is that you keep getting up.



• Quote #5
  "A man can do what he ought to do and when he says he cannot, it is because he will not." - Johann Gottlieb Fichte
  People often tell me that they cannot lose weight. But, the truth is that they can lose weight. They just will not do the things necessary for them to lose weight permanently. Your physiology is not as special as you believe it to be. If you learn how to change your behaviors from bad to good, you will lose weight. Are you willing to do that? If the answer is no, fine. Just do not say you cannot lose weight. Simply say that you WILL NOT lose weight.
