Everyone slips up as part of any goal, and getting fit is not immune. It's best to have a plan, knowing full well there will be phases where you may not feel like getting to the gym, even after building up a routine and losing some weight. It will happen, so don't let it destroy all of your hard work...expect it, accept it, and work with it.
After a spell of 'I'm just too busy,' or 'I just don't want to go,' all you need is a refresher course. The trick is not to wallow in what you've done, and start fresh. Forget that you had built yourself up to going to the gym for a full hour, just go for ten minutes. Tell yourself that if you walk into the gym at your regularly scheduled time and then walk right out again, that's fine! Just go. Go for ten minutes for 5 days in a row if you need to, just go! Eventually you will get back on track, and it usually happens sooner than you think it will. Don't listen to the part of your brian that is telling you to give up, summon your will power and start small. A couple of days of less intense workouts is much more benefitial than doing nothing!
