COVID weight gain

I got fat over COVID. It was easy when all I did was sit on my PC and eat all day. It's embarrassing that I have multiple chins and moobs. Whenever I try and lose weight I give in so easily and binge eat. It's sad how much I think about food and eating. It's always on my mind and my life now revolves around my next meal. It also sucks when I have a favorite shirt I can't wear anymore because it's too tight now or my moobs are super prominent.

You probably just need a better diet. More beans, veggies, meat.
Exercise also helps reduce cravings.
Just remember, any time you're eating at a restaurant, or eating a prepared meal, you're probably just eating crap. If you go all protein, you're probably just going to give yourself a gluten-intolerance, or pre-diabetes.
Dieting isn't the answer.
I would just focus on eating more whole foods, a wider variety of vegetables, ensuring you get your electrolytes (Potassium, Calcium, Sodium, Magnesium), stay hydrated and adequate protein.
Also, go for an hour walk every day.
It's better to eat early in the day, and avoid eating at night.
You still look fine.
