Cannot get motivated

To work out!

I have gained 30 pounds in the last year! 30 lbs!!! This is the biggest I have ever been. Combination of quitting smoking, switching to a desk job and maybe just being lazy??Stopped going to WW. I have been watching what I eat for weeks and what do I do - Go to Burger King for dinner. Yuck

It's definitely tough. But you just have to force yourself to make positive changes. However, don't beat yourself up too much over a slip up. You're human and allowed to indulge once in a while. Take a walk tonight, even if only for 10 minutes to work off some of the BK. Then let it go and go back to eating healthy. Good luck... you can do it!

Sometimes we just need to splurge.

Re: Cannot get motivated

that is great that you went for a walk.... I had a horrible time getting motivated when I just realized my shower is in a couple of weeks and I do not want to feel uncomfortable that day I want to feel beautiful... then it hit me.. this it.. this is what we have been dreaming about forever.. we are finally the BRIDE. This is the time in our life to feel beautiful.... i want to look back at my shower, bachelorette party and wedding feeling gorgeous!!! \ This is our time!!!!

I know it is hard.. but you can do it!!!

I quit smoking and gained about 15 pounds! I used to go to the gym all the time and was in great shape, but i lost my motivation about a year ago. I just started going back regularly and I feel great! Don't worry about the slip-ups with your diet, just make sure that you get to the gym or do some exercise!

We're all here for you!

I'm in the same boat. Can't stay motivated with diet or exercise. I just bought 12 personal training sessions at Lucille Roberts (I already have a membership there but never go!) and I start on Friday. I think that's the only way I'll get motivated is if someone tells me I have to!
