Think its time to get back into exercising and clean eating

starting to slowly get the dad bod and letting myself go a bit.
I miss being young and being able to eat and drink as much crap as i could and not gain shit. Nowadays if I even look at a donut, I gain weight.

In saying that though, I know when its time to take better care of myself and can not for the life of me understand how people eat their way to obesity and to the point they cant even leave their houses.
I also dont understand why people glorify being fat now and claim its healthy and beautiful (only when its women of course).
Its not healthy or beautiful. Its just lazy mentality and instead of putting in the work to get healthier they would rather try forcing this mentality on people because in 2022 feelings is the only thing that matters

Best things I found were stopping drinking alcohol and soda, that makes an immediate difference in a week. Stuffed peppers with rice and spices fills you up after like 1 and a half and it's not that calorific. Also I've stopped trying to lose weight and focused more on making my muscles show, easier and more sustainable and you get more out of it.

@Ryannnnnn yeah the alcohol is what i am sure has done it in for me. After i finish what i have left here tonight, that is it for now and just going back to water. Stuffed peppers with rice sounds good. I will try that. I normally just go with chicken breast and broccoli day after day.
Only eat one meal per day and with exercise, it isnt overly hard to lose the weight. Its more just getting into the mindset and being motivated to stick with it because it gets boring as hell, food wise
