You may lose by it now and then, but it will be a loss well gained if you do.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
Anytime you put your mind on the results, you lose something in the moment.
But in practice, if often comes down to not suffering a loss as big as the huge gain you made a while ago.
The minute you start talking about what you're going to do if you lose, you have lost.
If you believe you can shed pounds quickly by force of will and deprivation, you will in all likelihood not only regain the ones you lost, but add a few more besides.
Loss is inevitable - you have to be blind or naive to think otherwise.
If you lose, it hurts, but as long as you have fought hard, you can still feel good about yourself.
If you don't lose, you cannot enjoy the victories. So I have to accept both things.
Sometimes the best gain is to lose.
Use it or lose it.
If I lose, I lose. I'll do it on my terms.
