Ugh I can't do it!

What is wrong with me ?

I only work 3 days a week,
Mon-Tues-Wed, I do 3 10 hour shifts (7:30-5:30). On those days I am able to wake up, go for a quick jog, juice my favorite concoction, pack a healthy lunch, some healthy snacks....
Thursday-Comes
It's my loneliness day of the week.... I am not married and all my friends work mon-fri 9-5....
I get so lonely and depressed.
I only am 5 minutes to Newport Beach/Balboa and I tell myself I should run on the beach, maybe pier to pier,,,., but I don't..... For some reason these days are long and lonely and I feel defeated.
I don't know if it's because I just stay home all day and I don't have a lot of adult interaction,but these days I get so tired, so exhaustive, my diet fails and all of a sudden I am perfecting my banana bread with Nutella swirl.....or coming up with a new dessert.

Nothing is stopping me....
I live 5 minutes to the beach, why can't I make myself run along the beach, or ride my bike on pch? I don't know if it's because I am lonely or if it's because I am not motivated as I am on my work days..... What is wrong with me?!

    Find something to do on your off days? Like volunteering ? Obviously you do bored eating so you need to keep busy

    You can do it. I agree with the responder above that you should join some kind of public group or volunteer organization. I would be willing to bet that if you consult the internets they will tell you of an all-level running or fitness group in your area.

    At some point we all have to put the excuses behind us and take control. You can do it.
