You are right. At some point a change will have to be made. Sooner than later.... I don't drink that much sugary drinks. My problem is I eat too much fast food and frozen garbage primarily because I am too lazy to cook.
That is a sad excuse but that is the main reason why my diet is poor. I come from work and just want to relax so I go for the easiest options, which are usually unhealthy. If you kicked a bad habit there is no reason I can't do the same.
it's real bad for ya in the long run. more sodium than the body can handle, tons of additives to keep you eating and can be surprisingly expensive. it's the sort of thing that slows you down earlier than you should.
try getting a slow cooker or an Instapot, you can cook things and keep them warm ahead of time. great for churning out food to take to work for the week or to have something warm ready when you're back. even if you're too lazy to throw in noodles or rice, if you have some bread to go along with the meat and sneak some greens in between... huge improvement already.
something else I've done differently as well is 100% no caloric snacks at my desk. munching on chips, candy or whatever really runs up your caloric intake without any satisfaction whatsoever. if I bring something it'll be like an apple or some tea.
