What happened to my willpower and motivation?

I’m 26-years-old and during the past year I have really slacked off on my dieting and exercise. It used to be that I was in the gym at least 3 days a week and really watched what I ate. Lately, I just can’t find the motivation to exercise. I canceled my gym membership to save money after taking a cut in pay, but I just can’t seem to exercise at home. Also, my diet has been suffering. I pretty much just eat whatever. Basically, I just want my old self back. Can anyone relate?

you realize your slacking. just get back in the groove of things! you just have to do it and want it. nobody can do anything for you.
it sounds like you might be a little depressed - maybe about taking a cut in pay?
but you know that if you make yourself exercise for a couple of days you will start feeling great again; you will start to eat better b/c you won’t want to “waste” all the hard work you’re doing and you will start to crave exercise.
you can do it!!!!!
