    With respect I think that restrictive diets like paleo, sugar free etc are quite disordered. Any diet where, in the absence of a genuine allergy, one eliminates entire food groups or macro-nutrients isn't sustainable in the long term.

    Maybe you should give team sports a rethink. Having team mates is lots of fun and really good for the soul and it's not the same when you're a grown up as when you're at school. I love my booty camp group because we're a team although we're all totally different in just about every way. How about setting a training goal by entering a race? Enter a 5km or 10km (or more) fun run. A short (or long) obstacle race (look for Obstacle Racers Australia on FB because they have calenders of all the races etc).

    On FB......try to find a 'public figure' called Erin Brown. She is a PT with a great body acceptance community. Or Fit Villains (Chichi Kix) is another PT with a 'body love mission'.

    ETA - try looking for 15 minute workouts on Pintrest or one song workouts. If you only have 30 minutes then workout for 30 minutes because 30 minutes exercise is better than none and in 30 minutes you can boost your endorphins, increase your heart rate and strengthen your muscles.
