Need motivation!

Hello everyone!
I am trying to find some motivation to keep working out. I started working out just over a year ago. I started with p90x with some friends (from a distance) and we kept track of one another's progress through email and such. Then I had a month break and really wanted to try something else. So I did half of Insanity (a friend let me borrow the first dvd). With nothing else to do but really wanting to work out I joined a fitness gym that does martial arts, kickboxing, crossfit, MMA, etc. It is really GREAT! I love doing it and I have dropped body fat a lot since I first started. But now, my work hours are getting a little more tight. My gym offers classes but I can't always make it to those, so I just sit at home. I was the most fit in my life over summer at 22.5% body fat, but now that it's almost November, I am drifting away. I don't have a work out buddy in real life (and don't think I'll find one that has such a crazy schedule like I do), so I am hoping this forum gives me the kick in the butt I need.
I also have been trying to eat healthier and really lean (my goal is 19% bf and/or visible abs when I flex). But it's hard to always eat right; especially when I have a husband who never works out but still looks AMAZING without even trying... :indifferent:
Okay, well. That's me and what I hope to get out of this forum! Have a wonderful day!
God bless you all!
