Losing/finding motivation

Anyone else find they started losing motivation and struggling to get back on track? The last month or so I've been eating things I probably shouldn't & completely stopped exercising. I could say it's stress or some life events or mental health hurdles, but honestly I hate excuses and I won't accept them from myself. So I've decided to go back to basics, which is why I'm here, to get advice once again. So has anyone else hit the 5th month slump? Any thoughts on how to get motivated again (and stick with it)? Also would love ideas for vitamin alternatives/reminder tricks because I'm god awful at remembering my multi & calcium!

I need to focus more on exercise. Excessive heat has zapped me. So my weight loss has been slightly disappointing. Re your vitamins etc, you can use this app to set reminders. I also recommend have your daily pills etc on a counter as a visual reminder. Important to stay consistent. Best of luck.

I know that it's not as simple as it seems, but the best motivation is to remember why you had the surgery in the first place. You that to keep you headed toward your goal!
