Latent within you is the power to control your weight for the rest of your life.

key resources you need to achieve and maintain whatever

weight and health goals you set for yourself are the same as

you need to accomplish anything else worthwhile in life:

An eye firmly fixed on the goal.

Will power.

A high tolerance for pain.

I don't mean this to be facetious; vaulting any of life's hurdles,

whether success in school, business, sports, the arts, or personal

relationships requires the will and the willingness to do what's necessary,

recognising that the achievement will more than repay the investment of time and energy you make.

This is the very key to success in anything--to be able to defer immediate

gratification in pursuit of a more permanent and worthwhile future goal.

The goal is to get the job done, and done right, as quickly as possible

and with the minimum effort.

Latent within you is the power to control your weight for the rest of your life.

All you need to do is realise that your weight is under your conscious control.

With that knowledge, you can peel off your excess weight and achieve physical fitness.

Once you've accomplished those goals, you'll be in a position to make them central to your self-image.

The above is quoted, but I neglected to write down the source. Sorry. But it has been very helpful to me.

I have no idea if this is where I found this, or how I got there.
