I am the one has the intention of working out when I get home from work but instead I find myself bursting through the door and standing in front of the fridge and eating until I want to puke. I blame some of it on the depression but I also feel like I have no self control anymore. My job is stressful and when I get home all I want to do is sleep...I'm gaining some of my weight back and I want to catch it and get down to my goal weight hopefully by summer but I lack motivation.

Does anyone else struggle with this?

Any suggestions or motivations anyone could offer? Tips would be greatly appreciated.

    Water helps me, drink a bottle on your way home and see what happens.

    Remind yourself why you are doing this. If your old reasons aren't inspiring you any longer, try to come up with some new ones. Remind yourself of prior victories and certainly try not to put too much weight on the set backs. Perhaps arrange your eating schedule to where you have a snack at the end of the workday that takes the edge off the hunger. If it is truly emotional eating and depression, seek some medical help.
