My Struggle with Motivation - A Midlife Wife

I was thinking about motivation today. Mainly because I so desperately need to find that spark…that drive and desire that I used to have.

I’m struggling with diet and exercise. I hate it. I hate that all of my teenage and adult years has been nothing but a struggle. I’m tired. I don’t want to diet anymore. I just want to eat what I want to eat.

But I can’t. I know that. However, I can’t find the balance in my foods and I definitely have lost my mojo when it comes to exercise.

My Struggle with Motivation

The last few years I have been so good. Tons of exercise on the weights, on the recumbent bike, in the pool for hours. I was strong. I felt amazing. Even though I lost hardly any weight in comparison to what I needed to, I felt good.

This summer – nothing. My pool is messed up and I just lack the motivation. It is hot and I am struggling with it all.

How do you find it again? How do you do it all again when it has all gone to shit?

I know I cannot give up hope. So I am hoping someone can inspire me to get back on the horse and try it again… for the 50th or 100th time.
