So I have been doing MFP for about a month and have lost 7 lbs, and things have been going pretty well for me, food and exercise wise. Then this weekend I my eating was pretty crappy (I usually do struggle with food and/ or drinking on the weekends) and I didn't exercise (which I usually do at least one day of the weekend). Now it is Monday and I need to put the weekend behind me and get back on track, but I am really lacking the motivation. All I feel like doing is curling up on the couch and bumming around all day, preferably with a big bowl of mac and cheese and some cookies. I don't know if it is PMS or the nasty gray ugly gloomy weather or job hunting stress, but I am definitely in a funk and could use a swift kick in the butt to get me up and moving.

Get your *kitten* up and get moving. Seriously.
Will you regret sitting around with crappy food? Will you regret getting up and working out?0 -
We all have those weekend...don't let it get you down! More importantly don't let one bad weekend let you fall of the wagon!!
Sit for a bit and then get up and get moving, you'll be so glad you did!!0 -
It happens to me too! In fact, last weekend was a bad one for me. Get up and start exercising!! Even when i really really really really don't want to, i have to make myself, or the funk will pull me down. Its okay that you had a bad weekend, just don't give up0

Thanks gals. I did some Zumba and I feel a little better. I never had any intention of not getting going, I just wish I had a fool proof way to alway get myself back to wanting to do it.0
