"Have an attitude of gratitude toward your body." Stacy Lipowski
"Spend less time thinking about what things look like, and spend more time doing what you can with your body." Jade Breeback
"We have been given these strengths and personalities that come natural to us. Embrace them. Love them for what they are. And then look for people who compliment you." Jade Breeback
"Social comparison is natural. But are we allowing it to inspire us, or is it leading to negative emotions like guilt or self deprecation?" Stacy Lipowski
"Don't strive to be the best. It creates an illusion of an endpoint - and a delusion that the goal is to be superior to others. Strive to be better. The person that you're competing with is your past self, and the bar you're setting is for your future self." Adam Grant
Jade refers to a study by Roeline G. Kuijer and Jessica A Boyce, "Chocolate cake. Guilt or celebrations? Associations with healthy eating attitudes, perceived behavioral control, intentions and weight-loss."
"The journey to loving yourself is difficult. It's important to have people in your life who will help us on this journey, and speak the truth" Stacy Lipowski
"Would you talk to a friend the way that you talk to yourself?" Stacy Lipowski
