    I am not an expert but I think the question to ask yourself is why do you start slacking? If you know the answer to that, then you can correct the problem.

    Find something that's fun and that you can stick with. What's your favorite thing, it can be walking or hiking basketball, jumping rope. You can do this! I'm in the same boat then I found classes I love ❤️

    In the beginning, it was just forcing myself to get to the gym 5-6 days a week. Eventually it becomes a wonderful habit! Maybe finding a workout partner to push you when you don't feel like going would help.

    I also had to force myself to stick with it and then once I started seeing results that motivated me more to keep at it.

    I've started and stopped SO many times, so I can relate. What changed for me is I just hit the wall, and I had to draw a line in the sand. No more could I ignore how unhealthy I was and the path I was going down if I didn't change.

    It helps that my husband has joined the gym with me so we go work out together and plan our meals and cook healthy meals together as well.

    Good luck! I know you can do it. Even when you don't want to go to the gym, MAKE YOURSELF, and it will eventually become habit.

    I found something I wanted to do and set a time... 5 days, 2 weeks, whatever... And convinced myself that surely ANYONE could stick to doing the activity/exercise for that amount of time. Also encourages me to change things up (so I don't get bored) at regular intervals. Kind use the same mind trick every day for food; new plan every day and surely anyone can eat right for a day!
