Basically, you need protein for muscles including organ function (most commonly meat, eggs etc), fiber for motions, fruit and vegetables for vitamins and a source of calcium for bones and teeth (with dairy the most common source). You can get a decent amount of carbs for energy from vegetables, but a couple of slices of bread or rice or pasta once a day is probably enough for many people, and you will get a bit of fat from dairy and meat which provides long lasting energy. Have a multivitamin tablet daily if you want, but ideally you want to get what your body needs from food. If you don't want to eat some of these foods there are alternatives, like tofu etc, but you will need to put more work into planning to achieve a good balance.

Sugar is the biggest problem for most people. Protein and fat make you feel full for long periods while sugar gives you a short energy spike followed by a deep trough that makes you want more. The spikes are also really bad for e. g. liver function.

Limit salt, alcohol, etc. They don't do anything good for you and can have a tendency to make you want to eat more.

Don't stress about fancy diets. And don't overly stress about weight. If you eat healthily and get at least moderate exercise then your body will take care of itself.

Leave away all sugarwater, including artificially sweetened ones. Less meat, more vegetables. Smaller portions all around.

You can still enjoy food and eat healthier. Try different recipes, make them balanced meals. Starbucks is too sweet, I used to drink it, but buy your own espresso machine and you’ll eventually notice how overly sweet Starbucks is. Also do you know how many calories a Starbucks drink has? Check it out and you’ll be surprised. Don’t overeat or overindulge in sugar or just in general.

Get back in the routine of taking your lunch. That way you know you’re wasting food if you eat out.

It'll help deter you for spending money on overpriced crap.

Eating healthy doesn't mean you have to give up on great flavors. Bring back your love for home-cooked meals by preparing meals using fresh, whole ingredients. Embrace colorful vegetables and lean proteins, and watch your portion sizes. Opt for healthier versions of your favorite dishes, like sushi rolls with more vegetables and less rice. Balance is key: enjoy indulgences in moderation and savor every bite as a part of your culinary adventure. 🌟

If you are drinking anything containing added sugar, stop immediately. Find an app that can calculate your total calorie intake and use it every day for a week. Then set a daily goal and try to meet it. I tried using some paid app and it recommended 1800/day. I couldn't do that but 2000 was ok. You might try to get a prescription for GLP-1 or a related drug. It worked for me, I went from a chubby 185 pounds to 150 and I've been at 150 for a couple of years now.

If you stop eating sweets eventually they won't be so appealing.
