it is all the chocolate and candy that gets liberally left around the house in pretty dishes.

This is exactly my problem also. What makes it worse is that I am traveling at someone else's home, so I don't have access to the types of healthy snacks that I would prefer to eat if I was at my own home. Also, the meals are a bit inconsistent and you don't necessarily have a say in what, where, and when we all it. It is all a bit frustrating, but that's why I at least bring my protein powders to make sure I start the day strong.

I think the one thing holding me back from being more active is space. My apartment at home is quite tiny, and there is barely any room to do activity inside (we do have room on our outdoor patio, but it is too cold for outdoors activity this time of year). Our gym is only a few blocks away, but that too is very crowded. Again, this is all just excuses though. If I really wanted to, I would. Maybe this is where the buck stops. I think I will at least try to get back to my 3min plank!
