The western world is such a minefield for diet.
Hungry & in a pinch? There are 13 take out places in your vicinity with ready to serve you high carb meals loaded with highly processed ingredients.
Waiting in line at the store? Whole thing is lined with every form of carb and a fridge with soda and "vitamin water" which is actually just sugar water with flavoring.
Going through a mall? Enjoy Cinnizero and Kernels pumping the most intoxicating smells your way as you walk past.
Even grocery stores have a very limited organic/health section which have much heftier price tags. If you want eggs or protein that's pasture raised, enjoy the 3+ dollar difference from your eggs from chickens raised in a box with dyed yolks (to cover up their pale unhealthy colour).
Meal prepping to be healthy over a full week without breaking one of the 700 times you encounter the temptation of convenience over a day takes real honest to god commitment and concientiousness.
The good thing is if you're strong willed enough to keep on it, you'll look and feel way better than your peers over time, because most people break and resign to stress eating #### food in some form once or multiple times a day because it's so damn easy to.
