:grumble: SUPPORT IS MUCH NEEDED!!

I've gotten off track the last week or two, I was doing soo well at first and then I've had some changes goin on in my life that hasn't been so good health wise ...

I know that I really want to get in shape, lose weight and slim down but I guess Im battling more with my inner emotional self than anything! With the minor health issues I've been having and the stress I've been dealing with I haven't really been to focused on the losing weight part when I should be b/c that is the cause of my current health issues ...at least im self diagnosing myself!

I want to get my gym membership back ...even If I just go there to walk on the treadmill and work out on the elipitical and ride the bike, but in the same sense I feel like sometimes its money wasted! I can get a gym membership for 25$ a month thru my school discount but its just I have to stay motivated to go and thats hard for me considering I work and go to school all the time! When I have time off or just free time I want to be lazy!!

I need this self discipline to make myself go, b/c I do really want a change in my overall health and body image!!!
:noway: I just need to focus, but that seems so hard here lately ...I just have so much going on... :ohwell:

    I don't really know what to tell you because I feel like I'm in the same boat as you right now...
    Motivation is hard. It's tough to come by, but it sure leaves easily and quickly...

    I can totally relate I fell off the wagon this past weekend badly. I drank, smoked and did not watch what I ate what so ever. I seem to fall onto this path every week I feel like I have absolutely no self-discipline. I did not log anything since wednesday. I have lost hope but I'm gonna keep pushin I don't know what else to do to keep myself on that path where i excercise every day and eat well. My body is always craving that fatty food. This is toughest battle i've fought in my entire life: :

    I know what you mean, I have been doing well during the week but totally fail on the weekend. Friday I had a healthy dinner planned, but after showing my boyfriends dad the house we are interested in buying, he invited us back to their place for take out.

    Today we showed my dad the house and had him and the bf's parents over for pizza. I ate terribly this weekend!

    Here's a tip for you, decide on a day right now to go back to the gym. Don't just say "one of these days" or you'll never do it. Pick a day to go and go, no matter what. Good luck!

    ok first thing is do not feel bad! Just try to have that same fighter feeling back that I am sure you did when you first started.

    Now, try to feel what was the worst "fat" day of your life. When you get that feeling back, it will be much easier to stay motivated. I fell off very hard this weekend again. But I am finding it much easier to get it back under control. We can do this together. Let me know if you want to talk or vent or anything. We are all here for you!
