Being stuck at home and being a couch potato has let me slip back into indifference. Back in HS, i wasnt fat so to speak, but I wasnt overtly healthy. Then I started working out seriously at the gym in addition to sports practices, lost some weight, and grew a few inches taller (6'1"). I kept it up in college, even though I was drinking and eating a lot more, I would still walk 20k steps a day between classes, and work out 4-5 times a week (45 min cardio, 45 min weights/bodyweight fitness).
I took one semester off to go abroad, gained 15 pounds in 4 months, then spent the summer getting back from my commute at 7 and working out till 830 most nights and got back to my goal weight.
Then senior year hit, and I got mono, various other sicknesses and a concussion all within a 6 month span. I havent really been able to get back into it with being stuck WFH, studying for my exams (which ive now passed), and now cold weather. I'm starting to see my weight creep up yet again. I have an eliptical in my basement, but it's not the same and ive just been down not wanting to do anything outside of sleep, eat, play videogames and work. Ive tried instituting some workout "game" where i'll do pushups or situps depending on where I finish in a game, but its not enough.
I dont really know how to find that discipline again, and i'm gonna be away for a month starting in a week and half up in a pretty cold place without the eliptical. How do people get it back once theyve lost it?
