Hi Joe,

It is hard to go back out once you are home. Maybe if you pack a gym bag and hit the gym before you go home at least for an hour you could develop a routine to get back on track?

I know how hard it can be to change schedules. I have always had an easier times on day shift. My Y opens really early and I have gone a few times before work.Is this possible or is there a gym at work? Also, when I know I am going to work late I measure things out the night before and just pack my lunch and dinner. There is nothing that you cannot do in the morning or afternoon that you could do at other times. You have come so far and done so well, don't let this schedule change get you down, good luck.

Joe,

Is it possible for you to sign up with a trainer at your gym for around 6 pm one day a week? That way, you have to go because someone is meeting you there and you're paying (dearly -- it 'aint cheap!) for their time. I do that once a week, then work out hard Fri, Sat, Sun and that gets me in a guaranteed 4 times a week. I'd like to do more in the week, but that's my compromise with myself for now...

Good luck!
