How are you so healthy and habit-maintaining? Explain yourselves!!

I've been trying to eat breakfast lately but my body thinks I'm trying to kill it and everything feels like I'm eating sand lmao

What are your quick breakfast meals? Do you feel like your body hates you when you try to eat first thing in the morning?

Genetics, social conditioning, thyroid issues, hormones, etc are all factors. Even though I rarely overeat regular food, I've got a sweet tooth and will binge candy and donuts. Sheetz (24 hour gas station/convenience store) has a peanut butter cup donut now, I've had like eight of them. They're fucking amazing. I looked it up and they're 470 calories! I still have to watch myself.

Also I have, at points in my life, drank way way too much alcohol. I've been significantly overweight from it. Doing good now though. We all have different struggles when it comes to weight, and it's absolutely easier for me to lose it and keep it off than it is for others. Don't let anyone tell you differently.
