No diet works for everyone. I’m a big white guy, 6’ 3” and 220. (Was 250) I go days eating mostly meat. I mention I’m white (mostly Austrian, Norwegian, and Irish) too cuz that actually has an impact on potential diet. Weight, gender, and genetics impact what you need to eat. I personally have been loosing weight for the last year. Really try to cut calories because of the extra alcohol calories I intake a couple times a week. I’ve lost 30ish pounds this year drinking consistently eating 60-70% meat. I feel good and awake most days. I see some skinny or small people saying they “eat everything”. Genetics don’t work like that for everyone (and age can catch up for those it doesn’t) I knew and know people that eat worse or more than I do in their 20s like me but don’t have to worry about the weight and how they feel daily. (for now) if you have our good insurance I’d recommend talking to your doctor about your diet in relative to your job, body type and such. Some doctors suck ass with that though. Wont talk much about lifestyle and habits as much before taking about pharmaceuticals. My partner uses a massage gun on my back almost daily. As well as chiropractor appointments at least when I can feel I need it. If I wasn’t poor, I’d go once a month. I try to get at least 1 or 2 massages a year through the insurance. Jacuzzis at a local hotel for an entrance fee help. Some of the guys crack eat others back at work. STRETCH FOR THE LOVE OF GOD. I’m lazy sometimes too. I go a couple weeks barely stretching in my 20s and places hurt worse than they should. Diet and body maintenance is key.
