      One of the biggest reasons people eat a junk food diet rather than a healthy diet is because they don't know how to cook. Learning to cook will automatically make your diet better because there's no need for instant food anymore.

I have never been so depressed in my life without any actual reason it is overwhelming. Nothing sounds doable or enjoyable anymore but sitting on youtube and even that i hate.

I went from consuming 3000 calories or more everyday full of fatty dishes, fast food, sugar desserts, alcohol almost every night and with no exercise at all. To now consuming only a maximum of 1,500 calories a day, full of vegetables, protein, white rice, black coffee and working out. It's the best feeling I've felt in a while. I can sleep well, I no longer feel drowsy during the day, I got rid of my acid reflux and so far everything is good. I hope I can be consistent on this change of lifestyle :)

I was just trying to gain weight to donate blood, still haven't achieved that goal. I got tired of eating so much. Trying to consume what's in my fridge (still good stuff like frozen fruit, fish, greens, veggies) before I start a new journey of trying again using rainbow food method each day rather than calorie counting. But with my high metabolism, I wonder if trying by eating fast food would be helpful.... I've also always been good about not drinking soda cause I stopped as a teen when my parents gave me that as an option at restaurants.

    Does the brainfog come from the "bad" in the fast food or is it the fast food lacking nutriens? Bc undereating also causes brain fog, and I´m wondering if it´s both bc of malnutrition or if undereating is just a lack of energie/calories and something about what is in the fast food or how the body absorbs it is causing the brain fog.

      Definitely not malnutrition. You can live off fast food. You shouldn't, but you can. I'm not sure if it's the calorie density, the typically off the chart of salt and fat that puts you in nap mode. I don't eat clean but I love to cook and don't eat much fast food. I'd never been to White Castle, so my SO took me and I sampled the menu. I felt like I'd eaten an anchor. I had to take a nap.

    I have a really bad binge disorder. I will usually drink a coffee in the morning, I only have lunch half the time but when I come home I’ll binge on over 4000 calories, sometimes even more. I’m always tired and have high cholesterol (in 17 but it’s genetic) meaning what I eat puts me at risk for heart issues. Recently I’ve started seeing a food therapist who’s helped me make changes toward a healthier life. I still really struggle, especially when I “relapse” but I think I’m getting better. This video is a great representation of not only what food can do to your body, but also how it controls you mind.

      I know this is an old comment, but just wanted to say that I’ve had the same experience! I struggled most of my life with binge eating and a generally unhealthy relationship with food, but working with a weight neutral nutrition counselor was so helpful for me. I definitely learned to prioritize having full meals for breakfast and lunch, but also to work through my internal stigma around binge foods. Once I started eating consistently, and not restricting any types of food, I binged less, and my body started to crave more veggies/fruit/etc. I hope you’ve had a helpful experience as well! I recommend reading about intuitive eating, if you haven’t. I like this video, but some of the shaming around fast/processed video isn’t really helpful for people specifically with disordered eating.

    So glad I watched this. I was so fit last year. October I moved out and then because of the pandemic my workplace wasn't working anymore (security for events). But then I also got sick due to iron deficiency and then in January I had kind of hard Covid. I was unable to work, despite not having found work anyway. So what I lived of was only the money my parents sent me each week and due to new expenses while living alone, that wasn't enough. I bounced into unhealthy eating, went into a depressive phase again, was lacking motivation to cook longer than 30 mins in the kitchen bcs my roommate doesn't clean after himself (the kitchen was always so messy again even tho I always left it clean.). So, I gained weight and lost muscles because I also stopped working out because of my health and that depression. Now that I have a different workplace (actually as a PCR tester lmao) since 2 months I finally get a salary again and events also have started so I'll be able to work at my other job as well. And I am so motivated to definitely spend a penny more on healthy foods.
    And yes, I learned processed foods that count as unhealthy are indeed less pricy. Especially because my favourite greens are from Asia and lesser known, they are more expensive to get here.
    I will start my journey again, this motivated me to bounce back to where my fitness was exactly a year ago!

      Pretty much the same thing in many 3rd world countries too. A pack of instant noodles/ramen in my country is as low as USD 0.10, versus the cheapest bundle of local spinach being double the price. The former can be stretched with an egg and rice to feed a family of six, while the latter would need other condiments/sauces/pantry staples that not many have. At least where I live.
      TLDR: For a first world country, the US food culture behaves closer to that of a third world country.

A USD15 pizza would easily buy 2kg of pork plus the veggies, but time and capacity to cook it may be inhibitive for some. Though that same USD15 can also purchase 15 cans of corned beef where a can = 1 whole day of sodium requirement.

    I'm so glad you mentioned that your diet helped combat how you feel in terms of your mental health. So many people forget about the simple changes you can make to things like diet to treat mental health, and how powerful looking at how you can change your own life to make yourself feel better is. This should be the absolute first step in your journey yet doctors are prescribing bills before advising people on how they can better themselves.

    Luckily I live in the UK, because even though we are known to produce weird or boring, we are really health conscious as a country.
    We have the highest quality meat products in Europe, our products are usually free range/organic with minimal artificial ingredients and we are very strict on quality of imports.
    P.S. If you want fish n chips, buy some fish on the earliest opening day of the week because many fish n chips are closed on Sundays and/or Mondays as the fish is caught fresh, therefore by the next opening day, you’ll have the the freshest fish. It’s worth it.
