“Feeling overwhelmed by the requirements of your diet Feeling deprived Feeling discouraged when you don’t lose weight consistently or lose as much weight as you had hoped Feeling stressed by other life problems”
― Judith S. Beck, quote from The Beck Diet Solution
“Choose a nutritious diet. Create time and energy for dieting. Plan what and when you’re going to eat. Seek support. Deal with disappointment. View overeating as a temporary problem that you can solve. Cope with hunger and cravings. Eliminate emotional eating. Give yourself credit.”
― Judith S. Beck, quote from The Beck Diet Solution
“You’ll get to the point where you react differently when you see food you know you shouldn’t eat.”
― Judith S. Beck, quote from The Beck Diet Solution
“Remember, the bread will be tempting, but I can resist it. It’s more important to me to lose weight. If I eat the bread, I’ll get momentary pleasure, but afterwards I’ll feel worse.”
― Judith S. Beck, quote from The Beck Diet Solution
“don’t start dieting until you’re psychologically ready, which might not be until two weeks from today.”
― Judith S. Beck, quote from The Beck Diet Solution
“need to read my Advantages Response Card at least twice a day if I want to resist temptation. It’ll take only a few seconds. It’s not a big deal. I might not need it psychologically today, but I’ll need it soon. I have to cement these reasons in my mind for when the going gets tough.”
― Judith S. Beck, quote from The Beck Diet Solution
“To lose weight, I’m going to have to train myself to do what I need to do, not what I feel like doing at the moment.”
― Judith S. Beck, quote from The Beck Diet Solution
“But I’m not naturally thin. I do struggle. I do deserve credit every single time I think about something in a helpful way or engage in helpful behavior.”
― Judith S. Beck, quote from The Beck Diet Solution

“Watch what you're thinking and you might just find what comes into your life.”
― Xavier Saer, quote from Bleeding Heart (A Timeless Fable About Living Life With Passion)
“After this, I can't resist. "Between you, me, and the rest of us, Ted, it's starting to show. You'd better work out, or getting fat off Daddy might be harder to hide.”

“The width of neck and shoulder suggested a rugby player, the broken nose confirmed it. Which shows just how wrong you can be as he never played the game in his life.”

“I smirk at her and let my eyes graze over her body."I don't know how to be friends with someone I'm attracted to.”
― Cheryl McIntyre, quote from Before Now
“She was still obliged to leave the house every day, on her usual hunt for food; and especially on days of bad weather she had no other solution but to leave Useppe alone, his own guard, locking him in the room. It was then that Useppe learned to pass time thinking. He would press both fists to his brow and begin to think. What he thought about is not given to us to know; and probably his thoughts were imponderable futilities. But it's a fact that, while he was thinking in this way, the ordinary time of other people was reduced for him almost to zero. In Asia there exists a little creature known as the lesser panda, which looks like something between a squirrel and a teddy bear and lives on the trees in inaccessible mountain forests; and every now and then it comes down to the ground, looking for buds to eat. Of one of these panda it was told that he spent millennia thinking on his own tree, from which he climbed down to the ground every three hundred years. But in reality, the calculation of such periods was relative: in fact, while three hundred years had gone by on earth, on that panda's tree barely ten minutes had passed.”

The Atlantis ComplexBookQuoters is a community of passionate readers who enjoy sharing the most meaningful, memorable and interesting quotes from great books. As the world communicates more and more via texts, memes and sound bytes, short but profound quotes from books have become more relevant and important. For some of us a quote becomes a mantra, a goal or a philosophy by which we live. For all of us, quotes are a great way to remember a book and to carry with us the author’s best ideas.
We thoughtfully gather quotes from our favorite books, both classic and current, and choose the ones that are most thought-provoking. Each quote represents a book that is interesting, well written and has potential to enhance the reader’s life. We also accept submissions from our visitors and will select the quotes we feel are most appealing to the BookQuoters community.
Founded in 2023, BookQuoters has quickly become a large and vibrant community of people who share an affinity for books. Books are seen by some as a throwback to a previous world; conversely, gleaning the main ideas of a book via a quote or a quick summary is typical of the Information Age but is a habit disdained by some diehard readers. We feel that we have the best of both worlds at BookQuoters; we read books cover-to-cover but offer you some of the highlights. We hope you’ll join us.
