Dieting is hard, I get it. This is why planning ahead helps. A LOT!
Making good choices to eat less and move more requires a lot of willpower because instinctually, we prefer to sit at home and eat brownies.
So to ensure that moving more and eating less happens, you have to automate the shit out of your nutrition and training plans. Don't leave it up to "how you feel" at the moment because in any given moment, pizza will always be more appealing than broccoli.
It's easier to execute when things are set up ahead of time because less decisions need to be made from your dwindling willpower needed for other demanding, appropriate decisions like doing your taxes, help your kids with school work, and learning a new language.
This is why ppl meal prep for a whole week, hire trainers, and have ready-to-go workout clothes in a gym bag the night before gym visits. The less decision you have to make, the less you're leaving it up to chance (to fail).
Read what you need to read, have a manageable guidelines/program in place that will progress you slowly towards your end goal, and keep planning ahead, one small step at a time until you succeed.
If you don't plan ahead, you plan to fail.
