How do I stay motivated?

Question

Almost 2 years ago I worked out religiously. Everyday for 2 hours. I went from 180 to 140 in just 4 months. Since i got married last Februrary I've gained so much weight, I'm like 200 pounds now. I hate it. For our anniversary this year we are going to the beach in August. 
My apartment complex has a very nice gym and it's free for the residents, I just can't get myself up off the couch. 
I want to loose so much weight I'm just not motivated enough :(
Any tips?

Answer

Do it first thing in the morning. Have  your clothes laid out and just don't think about it. 
Just get out of bed, get dressed and go. 
That's how I do it. If I don't go as soon as I wake up, I tend to convince myself it's okay if I don't, or that I'll just workout twice as hard tmrw.

Answer

Make a great playlist! Is there a tv in the gym also? I'll watch a half hour show to distract me. Once you get going it gets easier- just have to make that first move!

Answer

Getting myself a new workout outfit helped! That and having a gym buddy. They keep you accountable, and having someone to work through your tough moments, as well as encourage and celebrate your accomplishments, helps so much. Oh and Pinterest lol! A daily dose of some motivating / inspiring fitness quotes have helped as well.

Answer

Stand up? Lol I know it's hard but cut out one bad thing a week then make a really good gym Playlist

Answer

I dated my boyfriend for 9 years before we got married. But in those 9 years I was hard core exercising. Always strictly 5x/week, and I maintained a pretty skinny body. I used to always watch what I ate and pretty much was on a diet 24/7.

Since I got married (we've been married one year now).. I've gained about 12lbs and I'm the biggest I have ever been in my life. It's hard because I'm so happy and I love cooking and we both enjoy eating and watching movies.

But now I'm trying to get back in shape and my motivation is trying to conceive.
