For breakfast I have a glass of juice a banana and a granola bar. I eat dinner - usually light like a chicken breast in a soft shell burrito. Less than half a breast
When I hit 240lb in 2008 or so I got a gym membership that I kept until covid. And I went there. Even after moving to California. By doing that I eventually got down to 160 pounds and could eat more than I do today. If I exercised and or walked I could keep pizza on the menu once a week. Shit like that or grabbing a McDonalds while on the run. Didn't matter
We move back here and no gym and limited walking and I have to cut way back on food and even still I got to 180 at the new year.
I've dropped 5 pounds since but it is much much harder without exercise and my love of wine on the weekends
I believe in self denial but I've never been a fanatic about it. I need exercise

Pretty tough for the average American to walk 5 miles a day when they're at work 8 - 10 hours a day.
My point about poor diet is that basically everything that's not fresh-prepared is stuffed with sugar and carbs. Look at the calorie count of the average fast food joint. Multiply that across 3 meals and you're upwards of 3,000 calories a day.

One would have to eat incredibly clean and disciplined to be anywhere close to being healthy with a sedentary lifestyle.
I get that it's hard to be active working 8- 10 hrs a week while raising kids and what not. But I don't what know of another solution that doesn't involvement getting some movement.

I'm not talking about doing nothing at all, but most people aren't going to carve out an hour a day for exercise. That seems to be the reality of things these days.

I noticed this and was my take-away when in Asia about 12 years ago. They had both walking exercise and a sweaty climate, and the food in the open-air markets are fresh-prepared and not full of sugar, carbs and bull shit US chemicals.

Also the open-air markets cater to the lowest common denominator financially speaking. Across the street at McDonalds was 9x the cost. Ask me how I know.

In America, McDonalds with all its bullshit ingredients, caters to the lowest common denominator. Recall "the dollar menu"

At the tim, i felt my BMI in America was average. In Asia, I was 98-99%. When the hooker accuses you of being prego ….. Fat ass.
