If I miss a day I’m miserable. Any others out there with this same mentality?

I work out every day because I need the momentum, the habit. It's too easy for one "rest day" to turn into two rest days and more rest days.
I did get to the point where I miss it when I'm on vacation though. A few years ago I went out of town for a work conference and discovered the resort had a pretty decent gym. I was kicking myself for not googling the facility before I left and packing workout clothes.9 -
I workout every day, many days twice.3

I row 5km/day and, if I miss a day, I don't feel miserasble, just dread, because that means that I need to row 10km the next day instead.4

I usually take 1-2 days a week off training for recovery purposes, I train purely for hypertrophy. I have to admit though I do miss training on those Days4

I do resistance training 5 days a week and some form of cardio mainly dance aerobics or step or spin 2 to 3 hours a week. I’m adjusted to it. I do take days off when I need to so will drop cardio days. I feel fine, my body is well adapted to it.1

I'm never miserable if I don't work out.
I have a lot of outdoor chores that keep me running morning, noon and night.3 -
I workout six days a week. Always cardio but with added light weights and bodyweight 3X a week on top.
I'm 56 in a couple weeks, so I don't sweat it if I miss a day, which is rare. I take Saturday off. Consistent but not obsessed. If I take off, it's because injury or needed recovery (or sick).4 -
I have started doing some workout everyday because I'm currently enjoying this new strength training program (5x a week) that I've started plus continuing with running, yoga and tennis (swimming over the summer). I'd love to add something fun, too, like a dance class or a skaterobics class.
I do wonder if this is all a recipe for burnout, though. Was wondering if you have multiple exercise and physical interests, how do you fit it all in?1 -
I swim at least six days a week....I do this because I need more to eat than 1200 calories a day and I still have more weight to lose....I have lost 97 lbs the last 17 months....burning extra calories let’s me eat a treat every day...on my rest day I bump my calories up to 1400....3

I train 6 days a week at the moment.
I weight train Mon, Tues, Thurs, Fri, Sat.
I do a HIIT cardio on Wednesday. I also walk my dogs 2-3 times a day aiming for 10000 steps plus a day ☺️.
If I was cutting, I do more HIIT a week, maybe 4-5 times2 -

What reason would you have for not being able to lose weight?3 -

When I first started working out and losing weight, I was told I would burn out. That was over 7 years ago.
My routine is to do a cardio video at home in the morning (usually kickboxing, step or aerobics) and then 2x/wk lift in the weight room after work, 1 day run after work. I usually take Thursday and Friday nights off, but may do something short or easy. Saturday is usually 2 workouts in the morning ( I have a live step class at 8:30) and then Sunday I do a video and then go for a run.3 -
I do 6 days/week because I love both speedskating and lifting, and that's the only way I can fit enough of both in to make me happy.0

I still do not understand why someone could not lose weight.....please explain!1 -
I hit the weights Mon, Wed, and Sat. Tues, Thurs, and Fri I cycle 25-30 miles. Sat is my "Gran Fondo" day. I cycle anywhere from 75 - 100 miles. Sunday is my recovery ride day; I usually do around 20 miles. Occasionally, I'll change some days around if my legs are tired. Rinse and repeat.1

6 days a week for me. M, W & F = cardio and some yoga. Resistance/strength workouts on T & Th. Sat's are usually yoga, plus home/yard work. Sun's are for "fun" - kayaking, biking or soon, x-country skiing (Sat's too).2
