I was doing really good on insanity for 3 weeks. I was about to go into my recovery week and I was losing weight and inches daily.

However, I'm currently in college and close to graduating and have been studying like crazy. It was just recently midterms week and I had a bunch of exams to study for and on top of it I have had so many other things to do that my schedule got crazy and I stopped working out about a week and a half ago. Ive been eating worst and worst each day and I've been slowly going back to my old habits. Its so hard trying to balance everything.

Any advice on how to stay motivated and actually change so that Insanity living can become a lifestyle? I need to get back to my Insanity schedule. Thinking about how I just screwed up really makes me depressed :(

By the way, I'm 22, Female, 150 lbs and a senior in college just in case anyone is wondering.

    Just focus on why you're doing it. If it's because of how you want to look, keep a picture of that girl in your head, you know, the girl you want to look like. If you're doing it for long life, picture a grandma in your head. An old, old, happy, healthy, woman. If you're doing it for the guys (and aren't we all...), think of the hottest guy you've ever seen and what it would be like to be with him. Think about this every time your stomach growls. Think about it every time you're mid-workout and thinking of calling it good for the night.

    Always think forwards. Learn from the past, but don't dwell on it!
