I NEED HELP :(

for the past 2 almost 3 weeks now iv'e been in a funk im not really motivated and i havent been working out. i keep thinking in my head and making plans of when i will go for a walk or run or something but when the time comes i end up over sleeping and just not doing it. i dont know whats wrong with me and i need help getting back in the swing. as far as the eating part im still ok with that, but been slippin up on that more too :( ughhhhhh

    I'm familiar with that slippery slope you're heading down! As far as the working out, maybe just try to fit in 10 minutes somewhere in your day. Take a break for just 10 minutes and go for a walk. That 10 minutes will go by so quickly, you'll likely get back in the mind set of "I can do this" and "that wasn't so bad"!

    The other thing is to find something you like. I hate "working out", but I love riding my bike and I've just gotten back into golf! Both are great calorie burns and I don't feel like I'm "working out" at all! Best of all, I get to eat a little more when I exercise!! :happy:

    This is finally clicking for me. I don't deny myself any certain food, I just log it and keep within my calories. Some days I stick to 1200 calories and other days I eat to maintain the weight I want to be, which gives me about 2000 calories for day! I've figured out a balance. Make sure you dont' feel too deprived or you'll lose motivation.

    You can do this!!!!

    Best I can say is ..Just do it. For me, I hate getting started on some days. Today, I looked at the clock and it was 30 mins past my workout time. I did get up and do them, and I am so glad I did, Stop thinking and do it!!!!!
