It's really easy to lose the motivation once you are out. I mean come on, it's a hell of a lot easier to sit down and relax after work, then it is to hit the gym (unless you are already an avid goer). Work definitely gets in the way, and has been the reason I haven't been to the gym in two weeks.
Like Sedan said, its better to set a small goal, just to get back into it, then to try and jump right back in full swing and not miss a beat. I've learned if I ease into working out after time off, it sparks something in my head that makes me realize "hey, this isn't so bad, gotta keep going".
