Exercise Blah! |-)

I had surgery in May 2007. I've done good and have gone down 81lbs. Now for the bad part.... it's the exercise. I'm going through the exercise blahs. I can't find time to exercise. I work 60 miles from work and when I get home it's 8:30pm. I usually eat something and after 30 minutes head for bed. I know I shouldn't but where do I find the energy and the time to do what I need to do. I'm not putting excuses? I'm trying to get myself into the mood. Lately I've noticed that my mood is more of a "blah" one. I really just rather sit and stare at everything. Even going to work has become a task. I loved my job and now I have to talk myself to getting there. Once I'm there I'm okay. The whole eating thing at times gets to me too. I have been doing great eating 5 meals (my 3 with 2 snacks) but lately I have caught myself not eating my first meal until 3pm and then having a light dinner and going to sleep. Any advice on how to snap myself out of this 2 week moment?

Maria, No suggestions from me, but I'm right there with you. I do exercise on weekends (usually long walks), but during the rest of the week, it is all I can do to get through the day, eat dinner and head to bed. It too feel blah - not depressed, but sort of in a daze. Perhaps this is a "normal" stage for where we are at? -Susan

Work! How dare it get in the way of our real lives...LOL I go thru the same here. I find myself forgetting to eat while I am at work as well as not drinking enough. Before work I don't wanna work out, 'cause I know I have to go to work. After work I am too tired to work out. No advice for ya, but here's some hugs-4-u!!
