Life changes and NO motivation... give me some good words!

So between reaching my goal weight/size and feeling like I don't need to pay as much attention to what I eat (yes, I know - I DO!), starting a new job (I've been a stay-at-home-mom and a college student, haven't worked since 2007), husband starting a new college semester, and having a rotten cold and cough of doom I have NO motivation and all I want to do is eat. I have been going to the gym - thanks to being so sick I took about 6 days off and boy was it rough
. But I definitely haven't been eating enough protein, nor having I been focusing on eating enough fresh food. Tell me I'm not the only one who has gone through this?!? Usually I do great with stresses but all of this at once seemed to throw me a curve ball.
Tomorrow I'm going grocery shopping, restocking on all my go-to snacks and breakfasts, planned out dinners for the week, and I'm hoping THAT will re-set my eating habits. I plan on going on a (short) run in the morning to break my Vibrams back in. Crossing my fingers this is all I need to kick my own *kitten* back on to the pavement!
