You don't have a multi-course meal with matched wines every night.
Sometimes (most of the time unless you have a really deep bank account) you just have to feed yourself. When you just have to feed yourself, eat something healthy.
Exercise releases all of the good feeling brain chemicals. As A life long computer-nerd/couch potato, I will testify that it is shocking how good it feels to exercise.
Eating properly and being in shape does a ton to boost self image. (As i'm sure motor bikes and nice meals do too).
Of course, none of pleasurably food, excitement and a healthy lifestyle are mutually exclusive.
- StavrosK 15y agoI will attest to all of that. Exercising feels great, your self-esteem goes through the roof, and, in my case, it just makes moving around (like, actually moving one's body, squatting, bending over, walking, running, etc), much, much easier.
- barrkel 15y agoHm. I'm about 5'11" (~1.8m) and I weigh about 65kg (that's about 143 pounds), and have never had difficulty moving around, squatting, running etc. I typically climb stairs (e.g. multi-story stairs at car parks) by running up two at a time. But I've never had a day's deliberate exercise in my life outside of school; though historically, I've used walking and cycling a lot as means of transportation. I've never owned a car.
- StavrosK 15y agoI'm 1.90, 92 kg (about 18% fat) and, although I also go up multiple flights of stairs two steps at a time no problem, I used to have a bit of trouble squatting comfortably, as my knees would hurt. A month of squats at the gym later, I feel great. Half of it might be good technique, but my knees no longer hurt or crack...
