A healthy diet is more than just not eating unhealthy food. It's about having the right balance of nutrition and that's quite difficult in our world. Especially if you don't have a lot of money. Or have other dietary restrictions.
Also no one wants sympathy they just want you to not be an arrogant prick.
I'm just trying to demonstrate that insulting people is not going to get them on side. And also spreading misinformation is unhelpful and dangerous, even if you didn't mean to do it.
Macros are for people with too much time or who have a nutritional deficiency diagnosed by a doctor. At 400 pounds I got a full time job that requires me to be on my feet for over seven full hours. First month was agony. Changing nothing else, still eating garbage, I'm steadily losing weight. If I even glanced at my calories and made a change or two I'm sure I'd speed it up but after fucking with macros and getting nowhere, calories really are the biggest and probably only thing you NEED to be aware of.
You don't need to go from living in bed eating pastries all day to fitness God and gymrat overnight. Start with a walk, get your feet used to being a little sore. Cut some junk down and increase protein consumption. Step by step, make positive and sustainable changes. Sustainable. Dont eat cardboard and think you can maintain that. Look for something healthy you enjoy eating even if it's not perfect.
I still eat muffins and chocolate milk in the morning and I'm losing weight. We got this guys.
