Are you having a hard time getting back on track? Has it been hard to find a motivation to start exercising?
Try this.. instead of waiting to feel motivated (which will happen later once you get in the routine), try focusing on simple routine of a most simplest and easiest action you can take that's going to improve your lifestyle a bit..
Rule is it must be VERY easy to do.. for example going for a 30 mins walk outdoor (easy .. just put your shoes on and go is the only obstacle you need to get over.. once you're out you just walk..)
Why this works is a simple brain trick.. by saying you're gonna do something and committing to it and completing the action, you will feel self satisfaction and your mood will lift as a result..
Then simply repeat this simple action until it becomes a habit.. .. something so natural you won't even think twice about doing it.. like brushing a teeth..
Then once you master one habit and it becomes a second nature, pick another to stuck on top.. for example.. some healthy eating based habit (e.g. like having portion of protein with each meal)
Point is .. focus on building habits instead of waiting for 'motivation'.
I hope this helps 🙂
