no pain no gain that is the only one that I can think of but formy own words of encouragement is that do it for yourself you are so worth it you will feel soo much better as the weight drops off and also just think and feel what it is going to be like when you reach your goal think of how happy you will be how much better you will feel how much more you will be able to do and if you have kids just think of how much more fun you will have with them you will have more energy to play with them and so on.

so I say go for it it will be so worth it and you are worth it you deserve to be free.
