Seriously. Quitting cigarettes is childs play compared to eating healthy. I've managed to not smoke for years after quitting cold turkey. I've been trying to lose weight for a decade or more with varying degrees of success and failure. If I could just never have food and be fine, I would have been healthy a long time ago. But your body requires food, often multiple times a day. And life doesn't always give you the time or options you need to keep healthy. And not even getting into the horrible nutrition education I've had my entire life, it's like everything was set up for me to fail, and then everyone's mad at me for failing, like it wasn't the expected outcome.

It’s serious medicine and not right for everyone but if you’re seriously obese then consider discussing Semaglutide or similar medications with your doctor. For some people it had been a game changer. It can make it easier to eat a small portion and then stop and it can quiet the persistent food thoughts. The side effects can be too much for some folks and it’s definitely something that shouldn’t be started without doing research and discussing with a physician. But it can make dietary changes much more attainable.

Sunday meal prep for the week. In 2023, it's not only necessary, it's imperative if you don't want to eat FF. Welcome to capitalism.
