    Lack of motivation??

    So I am facing problems that I never use to have. I am really struggling to keep my motivation through a work out. I go in in gung ho but about 30 mins in I just kinda lose my desire to be in the gym. I currently work out alone in my garage. What are you all doing to keep motivated or keep energy up.

    I am in the process of cutting. I am eating between 1800 and 2200 calories a day with a goal of 200grams of protein. I am currently 6'2 275 lbs down from 305lbs body fat is 30%+. Could it be the lack of calories? I was running my cut at 2500 calories but was not losing weight. I work a very sedentary job.

    Yes, lack of calories. When I'm cutting I start losing steam 30-45 into a workout. Finish with some isolations. On maintenance I'm good for 90 minutes +
    I also like a small carb or sugar snack during my workout, but not while cutting. I just suffer while cutting.
