You and I both know you were so close to getting that summer bod. It almost felt like that state farm commercial with the old man, you almost had it, but you weren't quick enough. So let's reflect on 10 reasons why you didn't get that dreamy summer body! 
1. Timing
You know you were making those late night runs to McDonalds, in between cramming sessions during finals week and before you know it, it's the first day of summer, and the bikini bod is not where you want it to be. Oops...
2. Family Gatherings
It never fails, every time you go home, someone is always trying to stuff food down your throat. And most of the time you have to take it or you might be offending someone.
3. Motivation
When it's 100 degrees in Texas, of course you don't want to get out of your house, because that would mean leaving the A/C. So it's gotta be understandable when you have 0 motivation to get up and start working on that summer bod.
4. Dieting
Sometimes, no matter how much you workout, you still can't seem to get that perfect body you've been dreaming of. Part of it is the dieting. Yeah, maybe eating that cheesecake (or 1000 Krabby Patties) wasn't a good choice.
5. Procrastination
Don't lie, you've purposely made yourself busy. Well, at least that's what you're telling yourself. You've suddenly found an interest in doing laundry, or wiping down all the baseboards in your house. Anything as long as you don't have to get up and workout.
6. Sleep
Enough said. Sleep is better than a workout.
In between cramming for a test, reading a chapter before your next class, and writing a paper, of course the last thing you want to do is squeeze in a workout. So go ahead, blame your professor for not getting that summer bod.
8. Netflix
Netflix > workout. Obviously Netflix wins. You gotta stay up to date on all the shows everyone else is binge watching. Bye bye summer bod!
It probably didn't help that your friends gave you an ultimatum. You couldn't miss out on the latest party. Party equals alcohol (if you're 21 and up. Stay above the influence y'all), and alcohol equals weight gain.
10. Lazy
It's okay to admit you were just lazy. We'll shoot for the summer bod next summer! You got it!
