Great list, Leigh. Some good solid inspiration heading into the weekend (and a good reminder to leave the past in the past, and to face the forward with your head held high and tons of enthusiasm!).
Number 7 (the one in the picture) is by far my favorite!

Can’t beat great quotes.
I love #5. I just came from a work conference and one of the conversations revolved around that quote. It’s going to be posted on my desk so I’m reminded of it every day.
Great quotes.
Leigh,
I did MRM 18 months ago and then took 6 months to lose the 9 lbs Ii gained. I felt my metabolism was anything but healed so I have just done MRM again + two months at supposed maintenance 1700-1900) this time round I gained 13 pounds. I now want to lose this but I know within around 3 days of reducing calories I feel my body goes into panic mode and starts to adapt. I was wondering whether you think one of the following strategies would be good
a) IF two days a week at eat at maintenance the other 5
b) reduce cals to around 1100-1200 for 5 days then eat at over over maintenance for two.
which do you think will keep my metabolism revving the best whilst losing fat?
thank you
I think #6 is my favorite.
I like this one about fear too.
